For what it is, I found this at another message board. So the link is news, but the quote is someone's opinion who posted said link.

Catholic Charities affiliates received a total of nearly $2.9 billion a year from the Federal government in 2010

Quote:
If you take taxpayer money, you have to follow taxpayer rules. If the Catholic Church doesn't want to abide by American laws, they can stop accepting tax money. In 2010, Catholic charities received $2.9 billion dollars. But that's only 62% of their total revenue. After taxes, that's still 62% because they don't pay taxes.
