Connecticut rules Unification Church a religious group
Connecticut officials classified the Unification Church led by Rev. Sun Myung Moon as a church not subject to charitable solicitation laws. The ruling exempts Moonies from registering as a nonprofit or disclosing charitable finances, though some locals argued the group is political. Moon followers continued soliciting in several towns despite opposition.
