ACTION ALERT: Nonprofit nonpartisanship, also known as the Johnson Amendment, is under attack. Take action today to defend this critical amendment. The nonprofit sector is one of the last nonpartisan spaces, serving people and communities regardless of political affiliation.
Last week the IRS, the National Religious Broadcasters, and two churches in Texas urged a federal court judge to approve a legal settlement between the parties in a landmark case on nonprofit nonpartisanship that would declare the Johnson Amendment unconstitutional
Repealing nonprofit nonpartisanship is a bad idea. Nonprofits serve people, not parties. Take action: sign your support to this nationwide letter: tinyurl.com/4en6d5ap
ALT Tell the Trump Administration to protect nonprofit nonpartisanship
