Summary

Republican congressional candidate Mayra Flores, backed by Trump, has faced criticism for campaigning at church-hosted events, where banners and messaging appear partisan. Events at multiple churches featured Flores alongside religious figures supporting her, raising questions about potential violations of federal tax regulations that prohibit political campaigning in tax-exempt religious spaces.

Community members, including congregants, expressed concern over the blending of politics and religion, viewing it as a misuse of faith to sway voters.

Democratic representative Vicente Gonzalez, Flores’ opponent, has received complaints from constituents about the events and has emphasized the importance of maintaining a non-partisan atmosphere in churches.
