However charities in Canada have a limit of 10% for political activism, meaning they can advocate for their cause but it can't be partisan. People can alert our tax department if they feel a charity is violating these rules to possible elimination of tax free status or charitable donation.<br /><br />So my question is whether something similar exists in the U.S. where these very partisan religious and charitable groups could have audits triggered?
