SPAY AND NEUTER THE HSUS (A STRATEGIC PLAN)

By bombarding the IRS with letters and our elected officials with emails, we will call attention to the arrogant practices of the HSUS. We MUST fight back NOW or our battles may be over. It's time we stand up in unison and say "ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!!" We refuse to let those who are guided by misinformation and the lust for power take over our agriculture, wildlife management and ownership and enjoyment of animals.

LOBBYING COMPLAINT FILED
Why Is The Humane Society Of The U.S. Permitted To Operate “Above The Law” and Not Comply With Federal Laws?

Frank Losey writes that on August 4, 2011, a Documented Complaint was formally submitted to, and is now being considered by, the Office of the U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia alleging that the Humane Society of the U.S.; the Humane Society Legislative Fund; Mr. Wayne Pacelle; Mr. Michael Markarian; Ms. Nancy Perry; and Ms. Sarah Amundson have failed to comply with the Lobbying Disclosure Act of 1995 for up to five or more years.

The Lobbying Disclosure Act of 1995 requires that any entity or employee who has had as few as only one contact with a Member of Congress or any of their staff for the purpose of lobbying in support of any Federal Legislation; or has contacted a Senior Official in the Executive Branch of the U.S. Government, such as the White House or the U.S. Department of Agriculture, for the purpose of influencing Government Policies is required to submit a Lobbying Registration Document, as well as to file Quarterly and Semi-Annual Lobbying Reports, to the Clerk of the U.S. House of Representatives and to the Secretary of the U.S. Senate.

Senior Executive Employees of the HSUS and its affiliated Lobbying Organizations have cumulatively and literally had thousands of direct contacts with Members of Congress, Congressional Staffers and with Senior Officials in the Executive Branch of our Government over the last five-plus years. However, none have ever registered as a Lobbyist, or as a Lobbying Organization, or as a Lobbying Client, as they are required to do by the Lobbying Disclosure Act of 1995.

MEMBERS OF CONGRESS URGE IRS INVESTIGATION
As a result of constituents in Indiana writing to Congressman Visclosky, he has joined the ranks of Six of his Colleagues in the U.S. House of Representatives who have requested the Inspector General of the Treasury and IRS to investigate the HSUS’s “apparent improper activities and its tax-exempt status.” The Joint Letter was dated April 18, 2011.

CONTACTING OIG
Email Treasury's Office of the Inspector General again urging they move forward with the IRS investigation to hold the HSUS accountable to the U.S. Tax Code.

• OIG EMAIL ADDRESS: Complaints@tigta.treas.gov (Subject: OIG Case File 55-1005-0025-C)
• OIG FAX: 202-927-7018
• OIG HOTLINE PHONE: 1-800-366-4484 (may be anonymous if you choose)
• OIG MAILING ADDRESS: Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration, HOTLINE,
P.O. Box 589, Ben Franklin Station, Washington DC 20044-0589

The message to the OIG may be as simple as: “I am writing (calling) about your Case File Number 55-1005-0025-C; and the IRS Tax Fraud Case File Number 29-92012. Would you please direct that the IRS expedite its on-going investigation of the excessive lobbying activities of the Humane Society of the U.S. and its potential failure to report over $500 Million in revenue on its tax returns, all of which have been substantiated by over 1,400 pages of documents that the IRS has received. The IRS investigation is now over 2 years old, and should not be allowed to drag on any longer.”
