DAILY SIGNAL: How Will SCOTUS Respond to NJ Tightening Its Hold on Nonprofits?
By: Autumn Christensen | April 20, 2026
Imagine dedicating your life to serving vulnerable pregnant and parenting women in your community. Imagine rallying friends and neighbors to join in your mission to offer them critically needed resources and support. Imagine watching the news about the more than 95 charities just like yours that were attacked and vandalized. But you serve anyway. You keep going because vulnerable women and their children are depending on you for material resources, emotional support, and the tangible reassurance that they aren’t alone.
Then, imagine a representative from the state attorney general’s office shows up at your office demanding constitutionally protected records and donor information without legal cause.
For First Choice Women’s Resource Centers in New Jersey, this was exactly what happened in November 2023. The state’s then-Attorney General Matthew Platkin demanded First Choice hand over 10 years’ worth of internal documents and private donor records simply because the organization offered life-affirming support to vulnerable women.
