On November 14th, Canopy Forum hosted a virtual conference regarding the recent court filing of the Internal Revenue Service which introduced a reinterpretation of the Johnson Amendment. The 1954 amendment prohibits nonprofit organizations, including charities and churches, from engaging in any political campaign activity. The new court filing could allow religious organizations greater latitude in endorsing political candidates.
Our panel of experts examined the scope and limits of religious political endorsements under these new rules and address the following questions:
Should religious organizations be permitted to make political endorsements?
May religious organizations directly or indirectly fund political candidates or campaigns?
What are the permissible limitations, if any, on political speech by religious organizations?
