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 and programs · 2023

• General Program Areas: FRC Action utilizes personal meetings with legislators, TV, radio and internet ad campaigns, targeted grassroots mobilization, petitions, and more to advocate in favor of pro-family policies. FRC Action communicates to grassroots supporters on a regular basis through Action Update emails, Action Alerts, and Action Press Releases. At the Grassroots Level, FRC Action works daily to impact policy by scoring key votes, sending e-mail alerts to constituents, and working with allied organizations. To accomplish its goals, FRC Action employs virtually every form of modern media. At the forefront of FRC Action's efforts is its primary website, frcaction.org, through which constituents can voice their values to their elected officials and other government officials. FRC Action utilizes alerts, social media graphics, and informational materials to raise pastors', churches', and individuals' awareness of important developments and issues related to religious freedom, the sanctity of life, and strong families. Through our grassroots alerts, FRC Action enabled its constituents to contact their elected leaders to urge them to take the right positions on important legislation. FRC Action produces various informational products, including research reports, email alerts, talking points, and brochures. Additionally, FRC Action's annual Congressional Vote Scorecard continues to influence Congressional votes each year. The scorecard grades legislators based upon key votes related to faith, family, and freedom.

As listed in Part VII of the 2023 return, in the order the filer printed them. Each return names its own; this is not a roster the organization keeps with us.

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.
