Transparency & Funding

Constitutional Accountability Now (CAN 2026) is the Fourth Branch, activated. We document every official who betrays their oath. We make congressional refusal to act politically unsurvivable. Lawful, nonviolent, transparent."

How This Effort Is Funded

CAN is funded entirely by individual supporters.

• No political party funding

• No candidate or campaign funding

• No corporate PACs

• No dark money

• No anonymous influence operations

Every dollar raised supports lawful civic accountability efforts focused on congressional oversight.

This is not a political campaign. It is a constitutional accountability initiative.

What Contributions Support

Funds raised by CAN are used exclusively for lawful, transparent civic activities, including:

1. Operations & Strategic Coordination

• Legal compliance and review

• Strategy development and campaign coordination

• Communications infrastructure and documentation

• Day-to-day operational management

2. District Accountability Campaigns

• Local organizing and coordination

• Materials for lawful constituent actions

• District-level media outreach

• Documentation of oversight failures

Initial efforts focus on the most responsive districts, with the ability to expand as resources allow.

3. National Infrastructure & Oversight

• Secure communications systems

• Research and verification across all branches: executive officials, Cabinet members, appointed leaders, judges, and members of Congress who refuse to hold them accountable

• National press coordination

• Cross-district messaging alignment

This ensures district actions remain fact-based, coordinated, and credible.

4. Rapid Response & Expansion

• Activation of additional districts

• Response to emerging developments

• Scaling lawful pressure when conditions change

This reserve allows CAN to adapt without delay.

5. Documentation & Evidence Preservation

• Building and maintaining the Accountability Tracker

• Research and verification of official actions across all branches

• Preserving the public record of who did what

• Ensuring "we didn't know" is never an excuse

What This Effort Does Not Fund

CAN funds are not used for:

• Political campaign activity

• Endorsements or opposition to candidates

• Voter registration or electoral messaging

• Personal enrichment

• Violence, threats, or harassment

Any use of funds outside CAN’s mission and Code of Conduct is prohibited.

Legal and Ethical Guardrails

CAN operates under strict internal standards:

• All activities are lawful and nonviolent

• No coordination with political parties or campaigns

• All public claims must be fact-based and verifiable

• Conduct standards apply to organizers, volunteers, and supporters

Violations result in removal from participation and, if necessary, referral to appropriate authorities.

Oversight and Accountability

CAN maintains internal oversight to ensure funds are used as intended.

• Budget allocations are defined and limited

• Spending is reviewed against mission objectives

• Transparency is prioritized over growth

This effort is designed to remain focused, disciplined, and time-bound.

Why Transparency Matters

The demand for constitutional oversight carries weight only when those making it are accountable themselves.

The Fourth Branch holds others accountable. We hold ourselves to the same standard

CAN exists to raise the standard, not lower it.

If you believe congressional oversight must be enforced lawfully, transparently, and without partisan capture, you are supporting the right effort.

Nonprofit Status (501(c)(4))

Constitutional Accountability Now is being launched as a civic accountability initiative with the intent to operate as a nonprofit organization.

Formal 501(c)(4) status has not yet been filed. Establishing the nonprofit structure is part of the implementation plan and will proceed once initial operations are stabilized and legal counsel is engaged.

NOTE: CAN 2026 is currently in 501(c)(4) formation. Because the crisis won't wait for paperwork, we're launching now under founder Paul Zurav. Contributions are not tax-deductible. Supporters will be notified when nonprofit status is finalized.

During this interim phase:

• Funds are held and used solely for lawful civic education, oversight advocacy, and constituent engagement

• No funds are used for political campaigns or candidates

• Operations follow the same transparency and governance standards outlined on this page

Once nonprofit status is established:

• Financial reporting will be updated accordingly

• Donors will be notified of any changes to tax-deductibility

• Governance and compliance documentation will be published publicly

This phased approach allows urgent accountability work to begin immediately while building a durable, compliant structure for longer-term oversight efforts.
