Maine LD1499 revokes tax-exempt status for organizations failing to report sexual assaults by employees, board members, volunteers, or affiliates.
Maine LD1499 mandates that tax-exempt organizations report sexual assault allegations to law enforcement. Failure to report such allegations on separate occasions within a 10-year period results in the revocation of the organization's tax-exempt status. The organization can appeal the revocation and apply for reinstatement after years, provided they demonstrate compliance with reporting laws, implement child protection policies, and cooperate with law enforcement.
