Idaho churches can donate to political campaigns without disclosure
Original: Idaho churches can give to political campaigns, including anti-Prop 1 initiatives, without donor disclosure
Churches in Idaho are able to contribute directly to political campaigns, including efforts against the Proposition 1 ballot initiative, without having to reveal their donors. The arrangement stems from how state campaign finance rules treat religious organizations, raising questions about transparency in election funding. The report has drawn attention to the role churches may play in state ballot measure fights.
Why now: Debate over campaign finance transparency and the political role of churches in Idaho's Prop 1 fight
