About this sermon
A federal court case in the Southern district of Ohio could have major implications for the Church and Catholic charitable organizations. In Buckeye Institute vs. IRS, the issue of donor privacy is in question for tax-exempt organizations, specifically the Internal Revenue Service's ability to keep information and surveil donors. Recently, one of the largest Catholic advocacy organizations in the US, Catholic Vote, added its name to an amicus brief in support of the Buckeye Institute, fearing negative ramifications for the Church if the IRS wins. The President of Catholic Vote, Brian Burch, joins to give us a little more background on this court case and why he thought it was so important for Catholics to be represented. One of the big sticking points in this case is the idea of retribution against donors. Burch discusses what could potentially happen to donors with their information in the hands of the IRS. That retribution then leads to a chilling effect. Burch shares how he sees that affecting the Catholic Church and other Catholic charitable organizations. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
