Americans for Prosperity Foundation v. Bonta

The case challenges a California rule that requires charities raising money in the state to give the attorney general the names and addresses of major donors. The charities say that forced disclosure burdens donor privacy and the First Amendment rights of speech and association.

The case could affect how much personal information governments can demand from nonprofit groups and their supporters. For example, a donor to an advocacy charity may worry that disclosure could expose private beliefs or discourage future giving.

Watch for the Court to schedule oral argument or make another docket move. No decision window is available yet.

The main fight is over California's demand for major donors' names and addresses from charities. The nonprofits say that requirement chills private association and speech.

Nonprofits, donors, and state regulators could all be affected. A stricter rule could protect donor anonymity, while a broader rule could help state charity oversight.

The next key step is whether the Supreme Court schedules oral argument. Until then, there is no set timetable for a final answer from the Court.
