From The Hill-2020 presidential candidate Pete Buttigieg (D) on Sunday took aim at former Rep. Beto O'Rourke (D-Texas) for saying that religious institutions should lose their tax-exempt status if they oppose same-sex marriage, arguing the policy would only "deepen the divisions we’re already experiencing."
"I
agree that anti-discrimination law ought to be applied to all
institutions. But the idea that you’re going to strip churches of their
tax exempt status if they haven’t found their way towards blessing
same-sex marriage, I’m not sure [O'Rourke] understood the implications
of what he was saying," Buttigieg, the mayor of South Bend, Ind., said
on CNN's "State of The Union" while discussing comments O'Rourke made
during the network's LGBT town hall.
