Black Lives Matter shut down online fundraising Wednesday night after attorney generals in California and Washington state demanded the group submit delinquent financial disclosures for 2020, according to a report.
"We take these matters seriously and have taken immediate action," a Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation spokesperson said in a statement obtained by the outlet. "We have immediately engaged compliance counsel to address any issues related to state fundraising compliance. In the interim, we have shut down online fundraising as we work quickly to ensure we are meeting all compliance requirements.
The Examiner on Tuesday published a letter – dated Jan. 31, 2022 – from California Attorney General Rob Bonta informing BLMGNF that it was prohibited from soliciting or disbursing funds due to its failure to submit an annual report for the 2020 tax year as required of charitable trusts. Bonta threatened to hold individual leaders personally liable for late fees.
