Critical Resistance seeks to build an international movement to end the prison industrial complex (PIC) by challenging the belief that caging and controlling people makes us safe. We believe that basic necessities such as food, shelter, and freedom are what really make our communities secure. As such, our work is part of global struggles against inequality and powerlessness. The success of the movement requires that it reflect communities most affected by the PIC. Because we seek to abolish the PIC, we cannot support any work that extends its life or scope.

“FROM THE BYLAWS: Subject to Section 5210 of the California Corporations Code, corporate powers shall be exercised by or under the direction of the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors may delegate the management of the activities of the Corporation to any person or persons, management company or committee however composed. But, while the decisions the Board makes are not legally bound to approval by members, in principle the Board solicits and considers input from the members before making decisions that impact the organization.”
“The 990 is circulated electronically to the Board of Directors as well as the finance team for accuracy and approval before filing. An electronic vote of approval (following organizational bylaws) will be conducted by the Board and, upon approval will be filed. The 990 will be available to any member of the organization upon request.”
“Board officers are encouraged to report any issues to the Board chair and CR staff that could give rise to conflicts throughout the year.”
“While no Board member is paid for Board service: Directors may be allowed and paid their actual and necessary expenses incurred in attending Directors meetings. In addition, they may be allowed reasonable advancement or reimbursement of expenses incurred in the performance of their regular duties as specified in Section 3 of this Article. This portion of the bylaws was adopted after a survey of similar non-profit organizations bylaws and under consultation with non-profit legal support. All employees receive a starting salary of $43k a year.”
“Upon written or verbal request.”
“The Organization has evaluated its current tax positions as of December 31, 2017 and is aware of an uncertainty regarding its California tax position which is more fully disclosed in Note 4. NOTE 4: CONTINGENCIESNo California Tax Exemption The Organization is not currently exempt from California taxation under Revenue and Taxation Code Section 23701. Lack of a California Tax Exemption may subject the Organization to various state corporate taxes and fees and may otherwise impact the Organizations ability to generate support. The Organization is in the process of addressing this matter with the Franchise Tax Board. If the Organization is unable to successfully address this matter material costs for taxes or other costs may be incurred. No reasonable estimate of such amounts, if any, is available.”
