Republican’s Non-profit Paid PR Firm That Also Represents her For-profit Work
Revelation of payments by Center for American Liberty blur lines between Harmeet Dhillon’s non-profit work and political career.
Asked about the ties between CAL and Praetorian PR, Joan Harrington, a fellow at the Markkula Center for Applied Ethics at the Santa Clara University and an expert on non-profit law and ethics, said: “Every way in which [Dhillon] is benefiting from the non-profit should be considered compensation,” adding: “it should be disclosed.”
“Non-profits have the luxury of being tax exempt,” Harrington said, adding that “the rest of us pay more tax to support non-profits” as a result.
“Transparency is important so that the world knows that this money is being spent properly.”
