This concurrent resolution expresses the sense of Congress regarding the significant contributions of tax-exempt fraternal benefit societies. It acknowledges their historical role as mutual aid organizations, established over a century ago, providing essential life, health, and accident benefits to members. These societies operate through a nationwide chapter system, mobilizing approximately 7 million member-volunteers to address unmet community needs. Their collective efforts, including charitable giving, educational programs, and volunteer activities, are valued at over $3.8 billion annually, strengthening local communities. Congress affirms that the fraternal benefit society model represents a successful private sector economic and social support system. It emphasizes that the provision of member benefits is crucial for sustaining their charitable and fraternal activities. The resolution concludes by stating that the tax exemption granted under section 501(c)(8) of the Internal Revenue Code continues to generate substantial returns for the United States and that the work of these societies should be actively promoted.
