Analysts' Notes
CharityWatch's rating of FAIR (Federation for American Immigration Reform) includes the financial activities of the two 501(c)(3) public charities included in the organization's 2020 audited consolidated financial statements: (1) Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) (tax ID #52-1136126), and (2) Immigration Reform Law Institute (tax ID #52-1469956). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in the audit consolidation. The rating does not include the financial activities of FAIR's related 501(c)(4) tax-exempt, social welfare organization, FAIR Congressional Task Force (tax ID #52-1258403). CharityWatch currently does not issue a separate rating for the Task Force due to its small size. According to the FAIR audited Consolidating Schedule of Activities, the Task Force had only $100,231 in total revenue and $5,528 in total expenses in 2020. The Task Force's 2020 total revenue includes a $100,000 grant received from FAIR, according to FAIR's 2020 tax filing (IRS Form 990, Schedules I & R).

According to the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) consolidated audit of December 31, 2020 (Note 6, Concentration of Risk, Concentration of Credit Risk): "FAIR and Affiliates also invests in various investment securities that are exposed to various risks, including market, interest rate and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the values of the investment securities will occur in the near term and such changes could materially affect the amounts reported in the [audited] consolidated financial statements." According to the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) consolidated audit of December 31, 2020 (Note 6, Concentration of Risk, Concentration of Revenue): "During the year ended December 31, 2020, FAIR and Affiliates received $5,455,000 in grants and contributions from five donors. Grants and contributions from the five donors represented approximately 58% of the total operating revenue and support recognized by FAIR and Affiliates for the year ended December 31, 2020. If a significant reduction in funding from these donors were to occur, it might adversely impact FAIR and Affiliates' financial position and ability to carry out its program activities." |
According to the Federation for American Immigration Reform (FAIR) consolidated audit of December 31, 2020 (Note 6, Other Risks and Uncertainties): "The COVID-19 outbreak in the United States has caused business disruption through mandated and voluntary closings of businesses across the country for non-essential services. While the disruption is currently expected to be temporary, there is considerable uncertainty about the duration of closings. FAIR and Affiliates successfully maintained the continuity of its operations by utilizing staff working remotely; however, at this point, the extent to which COVID-19 will continue to impact FAIR and Affiliate's [sic] financial conditions or results of operations is uncertain and being evaluated by management and the Board." |
