501(C)(3) status
The goal: find the state-issued 501-C(3) status and see if there's a way to FOIA the registering documents.

This links to the following registry page!!!
The language for incorporation includes a ban on "Propaganda" and other political actions, however it appears that this is fairly specific to electoral politics etc. c.f.
As has been probably been pointed out, it does not appear that the AMR has a federal EIN or has file Form 990s. Does this open them up to legal trouble from the state of CA, i.e. are there missed deadlines? A potential complicating factor is that the IRS is still processing a backlog of Form 990s from after April 2020.
There are documents illustrating nothing aside from what we already know. Presumably Prof. Barany and others found these fairly quickly.
Is there PDF metadata?
Nothing interesting.
Idea: can we use the UC conflict of interest code
Can we use the UC conflict of interest code to identify specific forms and declarations that would lead to a concrete FOIA request.
