The #evangelical #leader of #FirstBaptistDallas thinks the #JohnsonAmendment restricts #churches'
— It was a tradeoff for giving them #TaxExemptStatus, and to balance out their outsized ability to #influence their #congregations.

I knew this was coming. Now that the #SupremeCourt is packed with #Christofascist #zealots with no respect for established precedent, and who have demonstrated an eagerness to rewrite #Constitution in their ideological image, #Christians are filing #lawsuits challenging the #JohnsonAmendment—the #IRS rule that prevents #religiousOrganizations from engaging in #politics, and influencing #legislation. This is another step towards merging #Christianity with the #government.
