The subsection may not be construed to prevent chapter grants or pay to employees
What the document says“``(2) Rule of construction.--This subsection shall not be construed to-- ``(A) prevent the award of a grant to a Federal Bar Association chapter of which an officer, director, or member may be a member; or ``(B) prevent the payment of reasonable compensation to the corporation's employees for services undertaken on behalf of the corporation.”
A rule of construction in the same subsection states that it shall not be construed to prevent two things: the award of a grant to a Federal Bar Association chapter of which an officer, director or member may be a member, and the payment of reasonable compensation to the corporation's employees for services undertaken on behalf of the corporation.
What the document actually says“``(2) Rule of construction.--This subsection shall not be construed to-- ``(A) prevent the award of a grant to a Federal Bar Association chapter of which an officer, director, or member may be a member; or ``(B) prevent the payment of reasonable compensation to the corporation's employees for services undertaken on behalf of the corporation.”
The rule must not be read too wide. The group can still give a grant to a local branch. That holds even if one of its own people is in that branch. It can also pay its staff fair wages.
A branch here is a local unit of the bar group. A grant is cash given for a use.
No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.
