U.S. Senators Jerry Moran, James Lankford, and Chris Coons, alongside 10 colleagues, introduced the Charitable Act to enhance the non-itemized deduction for charitable donations. Originally established in the CARES Act, this initiative aims to incentivize giving by allowing higher tax deductions for donations, benefiting charities and communities across America.

Senators Moran and Coons are urging the Department of Labor to exempt volunteer fire departments from burdensome regulations proposed by OSHA. They argue that the financial burden of compliance would be prohibitive for these departments, potentially compromising their ability to serve communities. They emphasize the need to ensure flexibility for volunteer departments in carrying out their duties.
