US President Donald Trump plans to sign an executive order on Thursday targeting a rarely enforced IRS rule that says religious organisations and other non-profits that endorse political candidates risk losing their tax-exempt status.
The order also promises "regulatory relief" for groups with religious objections to the preventive services requirement in the Affordable Care Act, according to a White House official. Those requirements include covering birth control and the move could apply to religious groups like the Little Sisters of the Poor, who have moral objections to paying for contraception.
