Protect Americans from Dangerous Cults: Modify USC Title 26 § 501 Tax Exemptions Requirements

Created by R.M. on April 26, 2012

Support revising USC Title 26 § 501 so that all organizations must promote freedom of religion and freedom of speech to their members and employees. Any tax exempt organization, which does not promote freedom of religion and freedom of speech to their members and employees would lose their tax exempt status for not less than 3 years.

The IRS would be responsible for creating web-based tool(s) to help monitor for compliance and to promulgate regulations to ensure that the intent of the legislation is enforced.

Dangerous cults promote using shunning to coerce their members to blindly follow what the organization’s leadership orders and to coerce unrepentant former members. Members must shun unrepentant current and/or former members, as if they are dead.
