WASHINGTON, DC -- The president and CEO of Newman’s Own Foundation has lobbied for six years to save his foundation from a 200 percent tax, but didn’t know until Nov. 2 that the provision had been included in the House GOP tax bill. The foundation would be hit with the 200 percent tax in 2018 unless it has divested, but would be spared if the House Ways and Means Committee bill provision—which would exempt private foundations from the penalty if they meet certain requirements—is enacted.
