With the increasing involvement of 501(c)(4) and 501(c)(6) organizations in electoral activities following the Citizens United decision and other rulings See eUpdate 2010-7, many are starting to consider whether donors to these organizations might subject to gift taxes and whether there are ways to contribute to these organizations without triggering the gift tax."
