The recipient ledger describes mailer printing and postage provided through Alliance for a Better Utah. This supports a service connection. It does not establish a separate cash grant to Alliance for a Better Utah or identify DPI’s underlying donor.
Open the filed contribution ledger →In-kind means a reported value for goods or services. A service described as provided “through” another organization is not, by itself, evidence that cash was paid to that organization or that it controls DPI.
The 2024 tax return
A Colorado mailing address.
A Texas legal domicile.
DPI’s Form 990 identifies EIN 83-3922640, a 2019 formation date, 501(c)(4) status, an Aurora, Colorado mailing address and Texas as its legal domicile. The principal officer’s address is in Greenwood Village, Colorado, matching the city and ZIP used in most reviewed Utah service entries. Those are different location fields, not competing descriptions of a single headquarters.
The 2024 return lists Najy A. Metni as president and director, Meryl Metni as secretary, treasurer and director, and Eliana Metni as director. These are reported 2024 roles; they do not establish who currently directs the Utah campaign.
Schedule O describes $124,658 in voter registration service expenses in 2024. That separate expense total is not a measurement of DPI’s 2026 Utah work.
Read DPI’s original 2024 return →The disclosure gap
The public return does not name the underlying contributors.
The 2024 return reports $235,000 in contributions and grants. The public Schedule B marks contributor information “RESTRICTED.” The reviewed copy therefore does not establish who supplied that money. The listed officers must not be treated as donors without separate evidence.
Further reporting needs donor-side grant records, entity filings and an explanation of the described Utah service arrangements. No claim of common control with Alliance for a Better Utah, UDC or Fairness Project has been established by these records.
