==Turkish ties (TRT) / Illegally in 22 States==
CAIR Political Arm Operating Illegally in 22 States, Linked to Turkish Gov't.<ref>Mathilda Heller, [https://www.jpost.com/diaspora/antisemitism/article-879761 CAIR Political Arm Operating Illegally in 22 States, Linked to Turkish Gov't]., The Jerusalem Post, Dec 9, 2025 </ref>
Key Findings from NCRI and IAN Report (Published Dec. 9, 2025).
- Illegal Operations: CAIR Action, the 501(c)(4) political arm of the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), is soliciting donations, collecting membership dues, and coordinating voter mobilization in 22 U.S. states without required licenses or registrations for political nonprofits. It also lacks a Basic Business License in Washington, DC (its incorporation site) and operates under an insufficient out-of-state nonprofit registration in California that bars fundraising.
- Legal Implications: This renders CAIR Action an unlicensed interstate political entity, exposing it to federal crimes (e.g., wire fraud, deceptive solicitation, IRS false statements) and state-level enforcement. As CAIR National's overt political extension, the parent organization shares liability.
- Foreign Ties: Evidence points to Turkish government alignment, including sponsorships by state-linked Turkish Airlines, events at the Turkish Diyanet Center, CAIR leaders on state broadcaster TRT World, and app routing via the Turkey App Store. The report describes this as a "converging pattern of foreign-state alignment" in a broader ecosystem of unregistered political influence.
Referrals and Actions.
- NCRI and Intelligent Advocacy Network have urgently referred CAIR Action to the DOJ, FBI, FTC, and IRS for investigation.
Related Development: Florida's Terror Designation.
- On Dec. 9, 2025, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis issued an executive order immediately designating CAIR and the Muslim Brotherhood as terrorist organizations, following Texas Gov. Greg Abbott's similar action Nov. 2025.
