Spay and Neuter Up-Date & Call to Action

Many of the over 5,000 who wrote to the IRS Tax Fraud Office in Fresno, CA have received a Form Letter from the IRS Office in Dallas that has oversight over all tax-exempt, public charities. Although this is a Form Letter, it confirms that the IRS Tax Fraud Offices are “talking” to other IRS Offices about the National Outcry for an audit of the HSUS. The letter also states that “if you have additional information that you believe is relevant, . . . send it to the (Dallas Office).” This confirms that a preliminary audit protocol has begun. Perhaps that is why many of the incriminating documents, that I had previously downloaded from the HSUS website, have now mysteriously disappeared from the HSUS website!!!!! (And yes, I have received unofficial confirmation from a reliable source that an IRS audit has begun.)
On March 25th my Eighth Installment was sent to the IRS Office in Dallas. It contains 90 new pages of incriminating documents that highlight the breadth, magnitude and pervasiveness of the lobbying by the HSUS at the State Level, especially by the 34 HSUS State Field Directors and HSUS employees who are Officially listed as “Registered Lobbyists” in their respective State Capitols, as well as their involvement in Humane Lobby Days and Lobby 101 Workshops. The HSUS “Registered Lobbyists” are in the following 34 States:

Alabama Idaho Missouri Pennsylvania

Arizona Illinois Nebraska Tennessee

Arkansas Indiana New Hampshire Vermont

California Iowa New York Virginia

Colorado Kentucky Nevada Washington

Connecticut Louisiana North Carolina West Virginia

Florida Maine Ohio Wisconsin

Georgia Minnesota Oklahoma Wyoming

Hawaii Oregon


To increase pressure on the IRS to "Fast Track” an audit of the HSUS, I am asking as many people as possible to copy and paste appropriate portions of the Draft Letter set out below and to mail it to the IRS Office in Dallas by First Class Mail - - a 44 cent stamp.

The Draft Letter refers to the prior 755 pages of incriminating documents for a reason. It will allow me to finesse and ensure that the IRS Office in Dallas reviews all 845 pages of incriminating documents. Failure to do so by that Office will allow me to leverage and elevate the issue - - this is how one moves a “glacier” within a Government Bureaucracy.

Thank You for all that you have done to create a “critical mass” of concern that the IRS simply cannot ignore.

sentence to the following letter...
If you review the documentation that Mr. Losey has sent to your Office, you will see that the HSUS representative for my State is a “Registered Lobbyist.”
STEP 3 Read and personalize the following letter.

Dear Ms. Downing:
As a follow-up to your request for “additional information” that is “relevant” concerning the lobbying activities of the HSUS, I ask that the IRS examine and reflect upon the recently submitted documentation that has been provided to your Office by Mr. Losey by letter dated March 25, 2010. The 90 pages of incriminating documents attached to that letter highlight that in addition to the paid lobbyists who are registered in multiple States to lobby on behalf of the Humane Society of the U.S. (HSUS), HSUS State Field Directors, or other designated and paid employees of the HSUS, are “Registered Lobbyists” in at least 34 different State Capitols.

I ask that you also consider the fact that the HSUS and the HSUS State Field Directors literally urge thousands of HSUS volunteers in at least 34 States to participate in what they call a Humane Lobby Day at State Capitols; to participate in “Lobby 101 Workshops,” and to contact their State and Federal Legislators for the purpose of influencing their actions on State and Federal Legislative Bills. Significantly, the tens of thousands of hours that are devoted each year to the extensive lobbying efforts by the HSUS volunteers have never been “fully” reported to the IRS by the HSUS. Furthermore, the cumulative efforts by those thousands of HSUS volunteers should be considered in evaluating whether the HSUS has exceeded the “substantial” test threshold criteria for lobbying by a tax-exempt, public charity.

I also ask that the IRS consider the timing and the double use of “fund raising” advertising that is used “to influence public opinion on a legislative matter or referendum,” such as a “Ballot Initiative.”

Finally, please let me know if you do not have copies of the seven letters that Mr. Losey has submitted to the IRS Tax Fraud Offices in Washington DC and Fresno, CA. If you do not have copies of those letters, as well as the 755 pages of incriminating pages of documentation concerning the lobbying activities of the HSUS that were attached those letters, I will ask Mr. Losey to forward them to you. The dates of the cover letters that accompanied the 755 pages of documents were October 29, 2008; February 11, 2009; August 18, 2009; January 4, 2010; January 12, 2010; February 20, 2010; and March 2, 2010.

Respectfully Submitted,
