HF 2475 Iowa House · 2025-2026 Regular Session

A bill for an act providing for the public examination of a record associated with a donation made to a government body by a nonprofit corporation.

HF 2475 requires nonprofits making donations to public education to make related records publicly accessible. Specifically, it deems nonprofits acting as "supporting organizations" (under IRS rules) as government bodies, treating their records as public unless confidentiality is required by law. It also removes an existing exception that previously kept donation records to public schools, colleges, or supporting foundations confidential. This bill directly affects nonprofits donating to public educational institutions (like school districts, community colleges, or state-regent universities) and gives the public the right to examine and copy those donation records.
