Talking Points

Here are some points to discuss with your representative:

• How Sen. Grassley's request for private information from any church directly implicates the rights of the church's members and leadership, who are threatened with public disclosure and discussion of their privately held beliefs regarding their faith.
• The fact that the six churches under investigation all preach the word of faith message.
• What are the implications of the Grassley inquiry on your denomination, church, minister and family?
• How this investigation affects First Amendment rights.
