Fair Treatment of Religious Organizations Act of 2026

This bill says that a religious organization cannot lose its tax-exempt status just because of its religious beliefs or practices about marriage, sexuality, or gender identity. Currently, the IRS can take away an organization's tax-exempt status if it decides the organization's practices go against public policy. Under this bill, the government could not use a religious organization's views on these topics as a reason to deny or remove its tax-free status, and the religious belief in question would not have to be a core or required part of that religion to be protected.
