Supplemental Narrative

Financial Statement Notes

Part X : FIN48 Footnote

“The Organization is exempt from Federal income taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Organization is also exempt from California franchise taxes under Section 23701(d) of the Revenue and Taxation Code and, therefore, has made no provision for Federal or California income taxes. Contributors, donors, and grantors may obtain tax benefits. In addition, the Organization has been determined by the Internal Revenue Service not to be a "private foundation" within the meaning of Section 509(a) of the Code. The Organization adopted the recognition requirements for uncertain income tax positions as required by generally accepted accounting principles, with no cumulative effect adjustment required. Income tax benefits are recognized for income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, only when it is determined that the income tax position will more-likely-than-not be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Organization has analyzed tax positions taken for filing with the Internal Revenue Service and all state jurisdictions where it operates. The Organization believes that income tax filing positions will be sustained upon examination and does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material adverse effect on the Organizations financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. Accordingly, the Organization has not recorded any reserves, or related accruals for interest and penalties for uncertain income tax positions at December 31, 2024. The Organization is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress.”

IRS990/Desc0The California Center for Movement Legal Services (Movement Legal) provides legal services in the pursuit of improving the lives of California's traditionally underserved residents, carrying out legal work that fosters community led policy creation and enforcement of policy won through community organizing. Our lawyers craft legislation at the behest of community organizing, bring impact cases out of grassroots campaigns, and defend the tenant movement and its organizers. Over the last year, our team at California Center for Movement Legal Services passed strong tenant protections at the state and local level. We fought in the courts to prevent large corporate landlords from circumventing these same protections. Our main campaigns to pass new legislation and protect new rights were the following: passing Just Cause for Eviction in Antioch, passing Rent Control Ordinance in Concord, passing Disaster and Just Cause protections for tenants in Sonoma County, strengthening Los Angeles's Tenant Anti-Harassment Ordinance, passing protections against upzoning in Los Angeles, working towards closing the renoviction loopholes in Los Angeles's Just Cause Ordinance, tackling Low Income Tax Credit issues across the state. Our main litigation to enfore the rights of Californians were the following: protecting the rights of Oakland tenants displaced by code violations, preventing the closure of the Pittsburg-Antioch Amtrak station, enforcing San Francisco's Candlestick Park Community Benefits Agreement, enforcing tenant rights in Sacramento --a legal services desert--, enforcing the Tenant Protection Act in Lancaster, enforcing the new eviction protections in Joshua Tree, stopping retaliatory evictions in Chowchilla, stopping illegal rent increases under Fairfax's new Rent Stabilization Ordinance, ensuring tenants receive emergency rental assistance from the State.

IRS990ScheduleD/SupplementalInformationDetail/ExplanationTxt0The Organization is exempt from Federal income taxes under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code. The Organization is also exempt from California franchise taxes under Section 23701(d) of the Revenue and Taxation Code and, therefore, has made no provision for Federal or California income taxes. Contributors, donors, and grantors may obtain tax benefits. In addition, the Organization has been determined by the Internal Revenue Service not to be a "private foundation" within the meaning of Section 509(a) of the Code. The Organization adopted the recognition requirements for uncertain income tax positions as required by generally accepted accounting principles, with no cumulative effect adjustment required. Income tax benefits are recognized for income tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return, only when it is determined that the income tax position will more-likely-than-not be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Organization has analyzed tax positions taken for filing with the Internal Revenue Service and all state jurisdictions where it operates. The Organization believes that income tax filing positions will be sustained upon examination and does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material adverse effect on the Organizations financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. Accordingly, the Organization has not recorded any reserves, or related accruals for interest and penalties for uncertain income tax positions at December 31, 2024. The Organization is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress.
