Extractions: Last October, the Internal Revenue Service announced it would consider new regulations for nonprofit organizations' use of the World Wide Web. The agency stressed that it "may conclude no further action is necessary," but it is clearly concerned that the Web sites of tax-exempt charities may violate anti-lobbying regulations simply by telling readers where unaffiliated lobbyists may be found. The IRS' announcement specifically raises this question: "Does providing a hyperlink to the website of another organization that engages in lobbying activity constitute lobbying by a charitable organization?" It adds, "Does it make a difference if lobbying activity is on the specific webpage to which the charitable organization provides the hyperlink rather than elsewhere on the other organization's website?" The IRS is also concerned that sending an e-mail or listserv communication might "constitute an appearance in the mass media" for tax purposes "if it is sent to more than 100,000 people and fewer than half of those people are members of the organization." (Under the tax code, communications to members of your own organization aren't considered lobbying.)

Extractions: Rebecca Weber talks to mayoral hopeful Anthony Weiner. Raj Bakhru , Webmaster Jacob Hupart Felony disenfranchisement laws disproportionately target minorities. This occurs mainly because drug laws generally have felony disenfranchisement provisions, and most drug convictions are of minorities—even though most drug users are not. The difference in incarceration between racial groups is particularly marked under the drug laws. In the most at-risk group, namely men between the ages of eighteen and forty-five, the rate of incarceration for African-Americans is about forty times that of whites, while the rate for Hispanics is about thirty times that of whites. These disparities have come about as a result of the draconian Rockefeller Drug Laws, instituted in New York in 1973 and used as the model for most other drug law codes around the United States.
