Nebraska lawmaker proposes bill which would make Churches pay Taxes.

An atheist lawmaker has proposed legislation in Nebraska that would essentially tax churches and other religious organizations. 

Ernie Chambers, who may be the highest-ranking openly atheist politician in the country, introduced a bill that would eliminate a state property tax exemption for those organizations. 

Chambers, an independent, submitted the bill, LB675, as simply a copy of the existing statute with the word “religious” crossed out at each mention among groups that are currently exempt from property taxes.
