While contributions or gifts to ARDA are not deductible
as charitable contributions for federal income tax
purposes, they may be deductible as ordinary and
necessary trade or business expenses. We estimate
that 10% percent of members’ dues will be allocable to
lobbying and political expenses. Therefore, you should
deduct only the remaining 90% of your ARDA dues for
federal tax purposes.
