Other organizations at this address

2 other organizations in the IRS Business Master File list the same street address. matched by us

This address is a suite or unit (STE 1900). Organizations that share one are often clients of the same office-services firm, accountant or registered agent rather than related to each other.

We match the street line and ZIP code as the IRS gives them, ignoring case and outer spaces and nothing else, so "AVE" and "AVENUE" count as different streets and this list can miss some. A shared address can mean related organizations or a shared office, but it can also be a registered agent, a mail drop or a service provider holding mail for unrelated clients. It is not, by itself, evidence that two organizations are connected.

Mission

EDUCATING THE PUBLIC AND MANY KEY CONSTITUENCIES ON POLICIES TO PROMOTE FULLER EMPLOYMENT. THESE INCLUDE LABOR FORCE PARTICIPATION THROUGH SHIFTING THE TAX BURDEN. (SEE 4A BELOW)

Activities or mission (Part I)

EDUCATING THE PUBLIC AND MANYKEY CONSTITUENCIES ON POLICIES TO PROMOTE FULLER EMPLOYMENT

  • EDUCATING THE PUBLIC AND MANY KEY CONSTITUENCIES ON POLICIES AND APPROACHES TO ACHIEVE FULLER EMPLOYMENT AND INCREASE LABOR FORCE PARTICIPATION. GAW'S KEY POLICY RECOMMENDATION IS TO USE MARKET SIGNALS TO SHIFT THE TAX BURDEN IN A REVENUE-NEUTRAL WAY, WITHOUT RAISING NET TAXES OR DEFICITS, REDUCING TAXES ON THINGS THAT ARE GOOD FOR THE ECONOMY AND SOCIETY (SUCH AS WORKING AND EMPLOYING PEOPLE) TO THINGS THAT ARE BAD FOR THEM (SUCH AS UNEMPLOYMENT AND UNDEREMPLOYMENT, RESOURCE WASTE, POLLUTION, AND ENERGY INEFFICIENCY). GAW'S KEY CONSTITUENCIES INCLUDE SENIORS, PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES, WOMEN, PEOPLE OF COLOR, IMMIGRANTS AND OTHER GROUPS DISPROPORTIONATELY AFFECTED BY UNEMPLOYMENT. GAW CONVENED MEETINGS WITH LEADERS OF ORGANIZATIONS REPRESENTING THESE CONSTITUENCIES. WE ALSO PUBLISHED ARTICLES AND OPINION EDITORIALS IN NEWSLETTERS AND DEVELOPED WHITE PAPERS ON KEY ISSUES. GAW USES ITS WEBSITE, EBLASTS, AND PRINTED COLLATERAL TO INFORM INTERESTED PARTIES ABOUT ITS WORK.

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us. Earlier years are each on their own filing page.

Nonprofiteer parses Forms 990, 990-EZ and 990-PF, in a window of recent tax years. These returns are recorded from the IRS e-file index, so their figures were extracted by that index rather than read from the return here — treat them as a different source from the filings above, not as more of the same record. A dash means the index carries no figure; Form 990-T listings carry none at all. Showing the 10 most recent; the API carries the rest.

Grants made

No itemized grants to organizations. Schedule I is filed only by organizations that granted more than $5,000 to a recipient, so most filers have none.

Grants received

No itemized grant names this organization as a recipient. Only grants over $5,000 are itemized, and only by filers of the full Form 990.

Related organizations

From Schedule R Part II, where a filer lists the tax-exempt organizations it is related to by control. It does not record shared board members or money.

Auto-Revocation List

Not listed. The IRS publishes this list for organizations whose exemption was automatically revoked for failing to file for three consecutive years.

Publication 78

Listed as of 11 November 2026, under deductibility PC.

These are two separate IRS files on two separate schedules, shown as published and not reconciled with each other. Neither is a statement about whether a contribution is deductible today: 19,245 organizations appear in Publication 78 while the IRS's own revocation file lists them as currently revoked, more than half of those revoked before 2019. Absence from Publication 78 is evidence of nothing, and presence is not evidence either. Verify current status with the IRS before relying on it.
