Adam Meyerson: Florida law stands up for charity

Americans are increasingly worried about government overreach into areas of the economy and society that would have seemed unimaginable just a few years ago. So it is refreshing to see that private-sector leaders in at least one important area — charitable giving — are starting to push back.

Earlier this month, the state of Florida passed a law that actually limits the ability of the state to interfere with its citizens’ private charitable giving. The new law guarantees charitable donors the freedom to give to the charities they care about and in the manner that they think will be most effective.
