Tax Exemption Suits Target Church Property tax
Baltimore attorney Leonard Kerpelman seeks to overturn church property tax exemptions and federal exemptions for church owned businesses, arguing taxes violate separation of church and state. He aims to raise state and federal tax revenue and says Supreme Court review could redefine church state relations. Kerpelman notes major exemptions exist in Maryland and cites a $76 million potential annual impact for Baltimore. He represents the Free Thought Society, led by Jemoin Cree, and has faced wary responses from Jewish communities. A missionary from Sierra Leone will speak at a local church on Sunday, highlighting mission funding.
