Washington, May 4:Donald Trump is interesting to sign an effective order on Thursday that could allow churches and other religious organisations to become more active politically,according to administration officials.
The government's Internal Revenue Service (IRS) organizes the orders as "maximum enforcing discretion" on the amendment, which prevents churches and other tax exempt religious organizations from accepting or opposing political candidates, CNN reports.
The order will declare that it is the policy of the Trump administration "to protect and vigorously promote religious liberty", a senior administration official said.
Trump plans to sign the order and deliver remarks during an event at the White House on Thursday marking the National Day of Prayer. This program brings national religious leaders to the White House, CNN reported.Briefing reporters Wednesday evening, a senior official downplayed the possibility that churches would soon act as political groups advocating for particular candidates.
