Recipients used a variety of tactics, ranging from events that drew free media attention to television and digital ads and direct conversations with policy-makers on the subject. Grants to organizations that were not 501(c) organizations included the following restrictions: that the organization shall apply the grant for charitable and educational purposes that qualify under Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue (?Code?), that the organization agrees that no funds that it receives from Register2 Vote Fund ("R2V") as part of this grant will be used to participate in any political campaign on behalf of or in opposition to any candidate for public office nor will it use any funds it receives from R2V as part of this grant be used to influence the outcome of any selection, nomination, election, or appointment of any individual to any public office or office of a political organization within the meaning of Section 527(e)(2) of the Code, and that the funds are not earmarked for any specific lobbying activities as defined under any federal, state or local laws. Furthermore, grantees agree that no funds that it receives from R2V as part of this grant will be used to carry on propaganda or otherwise attempt to influence legislation as those terms are defined under sections 4911(d) and 501(h) of the Code.
