    In years of conversations w/religious leaders worried about their institutions' liberties, Johnson amendment has literally never come up.

        But I guess good news is that when the ACLU shuts down Catholic hospitals in 15 yrs, priests will be free to endorse Ivanka from the pulpit.

        Ask the Christian Coalition about this issue. Libs ignore the law and campaign in black churches; conservatives are under threat of lawsuit

        The amendment doesn't preclude a preacher supporting a candidate. You can't find a church sermon or lesson from those men that violates it.

        Oh please, Johnson Amend violated every Sunday! If they want a political say, lose their tax exempt status. God isn't partisan!

        Perhaps you don't actually go to church. That would explain your assumptions.

        Really? You go to a church that says God is a Republican? Says a lot about your church, not Christianity.

        I am an atheist. My Catholic in laws respect that. They are Dems, Volunteer at Meals on Wheels weekly and are against removing Johnson Amend

        that is because theocrats, not religious leaders, care about the Johnson amendment.

        You've clearly not been around many serious evangelicals.
