Churches Cannot Endorse Candidates

I didn't know this. The church I grew up in never did endorse any particular candidate but simply pushed all of its attendees to get out and vote. I just thought it was a decision the church made just to stay neutral.

It turns out, "The tax code bans churches from participating in or intervening in a political campaign. Violations can result in the loss of a church’s tax exempt status."

I read that here.

Hmmm. That's good to know.
