Texas: 5th Circuit to hear arguments over law banning church support over recalls

The Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals will be hearing arguments on a Texas law that prevented three Texas churches from support recalls against San Antonio Mayor Julian Castro, the San Antonio City Council and Houston Mayor Annise Parker. The recalls were over the officials support for gay marriage issues.

The lower court held that the support for the recall was a prohibited political contribution and the church would have had to have formed a super PAC to use money.
