Gingrich under fire could hit Democratic nonprofit power
A political row over Gingrich's 1994 95 college course and GOP actions threatens to expose tax exempt groups that lobby as education. Bonior charges the ethics case targets more than the speaker and could imperil Washington's nonprofit advocacy sector, with hundreds of groups aligned mostly with Democrats. The piece links Gingrich's fundraising and national broadcasts to a broader fight over political influence in tax exempt entities and party power.
