How is this any different then the Govt still taking our tax dollars while only pushing policies that hurt Americans...churchs don't pay tax so of course they should have say.

I agree that Churches shouldn’t have a say, but paying federal taxes isn’t what gives someone a say in politics. “Taxpayer dollars” is terrible framing. In fact, federal taxes don’t pay for anything at all.
