BY ACCEPTING FEDERAL AID, RELIGIOUS ORGANIZATIONS MAY SUBJECT THEMSELVES TO STATE LAW MANDATES.
Under some state laws, acceptance of government aid â€“ even federal aid â€“ triggers new legal obligations and restrictions. For example, the Colorado Anti-Discrimination Act (CADA) generally prohibits employers from discriminating on the basis of religion, sex, sexual orientation, and gender identity. CADA expressly exempts â€œany religious organizationâ€ from these requirements. But the exemption is lost if the organization â€œis supported in whole or in part by money raised by taxation or public borrowing.â€ C.R.S. Â§ 24-34-402(7).

Even without this exemption, CADA still permits religious organizations to select employees based upon religious preference. But as with Title VII, this may not permit an employer to discriminate based on other protected classes, such as sexual orientation and gender identity.

Most Colorado churches and ministries arenâ€™t subject to CADA because theyâ€™re not supported by government aid. But accepting PPP or EIDL loans could change that and cause an organization to lose at least some of its religious exemption.

BE CAREFUL
Many religious organizations find themselves in dire straits as a result of this crisis. And each will have to balance the economic threat to their operations with the legal risks that come with accepting the governmentâ€™s help. Every church and ministry will have decide for itself how to strike that balance. But each should go into it with eyes wide open, mindful of the potential costs to their mission and values. As always, you should consult with an attorney regarding your specific situation.

Those of you who will get yours in the mail will be waiting longer so the king can have his name printed on them.

Not talking about the bill that gave us the money. Congress approved that first. Iâ€™m talking about them having to delay printing checks because he must have his name on every one like itâ€™s his gift. So, itâ€™s more important that his name is on it than the people who need it most get the money.

We do not expect one, but glad for all of you that do. This is much better than the last 'bail out', that went to 'Corporations to big to fail'. That did happen under Mr. Obama, but it was set up by Bush Jr. before turning the helm over to President Obama.

Anyway I like this idea better. Of course I am concerned about the economy and hope the recovery doesn't hurt too much. We have lived debt free for over 40 years and hate to see our country live under growing debt.

Even in the good times neither party can STOP SPENDING!.......... Shocked
