LOS ANGELES - The Internal Revenue Service has warned a prominent liberal church that it could lose its tax-exempt status because of an anti-war sermon given on the eve of the 2004 presidential election, according to church officials.
Rector Ed Bacon of All Saints Episcopal Church in Pasadena told Sunday worshippers the IRS claims the church violated federal tax code barring tax-exempt organizations from intervening in political campaigns and elections."
