End tax exempt status for churches who openly support political candidates.

Created by R.C. on August 01, 2015

The first Amendment to the Constitution states there can be no establishing of religion by the government. Broadly defined, this also includes politicians seeking endorsement from church's ministers who tell their congregation how to vote, and who to vote for. As a result, candidates routinely show up at these churches seeking endorsement, creating politicians who are beholding to such religious entities once elected. As such, these churches have great political power, and should lose their tax exempt status. We ask the President to direct the IRS commissioner to review the legality of such church activities and their exemptions.
