SUMMARY AS ENACTED WITH GOVERNOR'S RECOMMENDATION: (all summaries)

Solicitation of contributions; terrorist organization. Requires that every registration statement to solicit contributions have the following statement: "No funds solicited by this charitable organization have been or will knowingly be used, directly or indirectly, to benefit or provide support, in cash or in kind, to terrorists, terrorist organizations, terrorist activities, or the family members of any terrorist." The bill prohibits the licensing or permitting of any such organization that has provided such support, and subjects any person who knowingly uses or permits the use of such funds to benefit or provide support for terrorists, terrorist organizations, terrorist activities or family members of any terrorist, to the fines and jail time currently established. Finally, the bill subjects the assets of any person who commits or attempts to commit an act of terrorism to forfeiture in accordance with § 18.2-46.9. The bill is identical to Senate Bill 954.
