Stop the threats! The IRS is intimidating our churches and religious leaders into silence on current issues with a vague, half-century-old law. Americans United for Separation of Church and State has appointed itself the watchdog for the IRS and is ready to report any church it feels is in violation of this law. This is nothing short of an outrage. If anyone should be bringing moral perspective to our national issues, it should be America's pastors and priests, ministers, and other Christian leaders! Stand with the ACLJ and help us fight for your constitutional right - Freedom of Speech! Please read the form carefully and declare your membership with the ACLJ by signing the Free Speech Petition below.

Free Speech Petition

[[OFFICIALS]]

Churches and houses of worship should be free to take strong positions on moral issues, even issues of political consequence, for the sake of our nation's spiritual and moral health. The Internal Revenue Service should not have effective censorship power over religious speech by wielding the power to deny tax-exempt status to a church. We urge you to strongly support H.R. 235, the "Houses of Worship Free Speech Restoration Act."
