Individual Application
Apply for the Anti-Weaponization Fund
as an Individual
If you were personally targeted by a federal agency — IRS audit, FBI investigation, DOJ prosecution, or other government action — you may be eligible for compensation from the Anti-Weaponization Fund.
You may qualify if you
- Were subjected to an IRS audit, inquiry, or enforcement action you believe was politically motivated
- Were investigated or surveilled by the FBI, DOJ, or other federal agency without adequate legal basis
- Faced selective prosecution or criminal referral tied to political activity or association
- Had travel restricted, a passport denied, or assets frozen by a federal agency
- Were named in a subpoena, grand jury proceeding, or civil investigative demand as part of a political investigation
- Suffered professional, reputational, or financial harm as a direct result of the government action
