Alliance Defense Fund, a conservative Christian group, is pushing for church pastors to be able to endorse political candidates — while keeping their tax-exempt status.
IRS regulations prohibit tax-exempt organizations from engaging in partisan politics, but more than 30 churches have already endorsed candidates for president.
Guests:
Rev. Gus Booth, pastor of Warroad Community Church in Warroad, Minn.
Rev. Welton Gaddy, pastor of Northminister Church in Monroe, La., president of the Interfaith Alliance
