Two developments in 2024 affected organizations supporting protest movements: Georgia withdrew money-laundering counts against Atlanta Solidarity Fund organizers, while the U.S. Treasury Department imposed sanctions on Samidoun.
The Atlanta dismissals narrowed a criminal case but left the three organizers facing racketeering allegations. The Treasury action alleged fundraising for the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine and restricted transactions involving Samidoun.
Those actions should not be treated as interchangeable evidence of one prosecution. One involved state criminal charges; the other used federal sanctions powers.
