Abstract: Elections have consequences. This article analyzes the 2016 election results, previews how some of the policy decisions made across the multidimensional local, state, and federal levels of governments and made by officials across the executive, judicial, and legislative branches of governments could affect the work of charitable nonprofits and private foundations, and emphasizes that the advocacy function of nonprofits is going to be more important than ever in the foreseeable future.
