Separation of church and state only applies to the right.

In a national day of action, the group Enroll America held “Health Care from the Pulpit.”
Community organizers went to churches across the country, talking to members about the new health care law, with help from pastors.
Pastor John Newman introduced two community organizers from Enroll America who talked about the act, everything from coverage, cost, to how to enroll.
They also asked church members to fill out help cards with basic information for themselves or someone they knew. That’s exactly what Michelle Fletcher did.
“I have a cousin that recently lost her job and she doesn’t have employment insurance so thought of her writing her down,” Fletcher said.
Fletcher said diabetes and breast cancer run in their family, so she was surprised and happy to get the info she needed at church.
“Our pastor, he keeps us real informed and grounded in what’s going on in the community, and he’s always bringing stuff to help us, so I love him for that,” Fletcher said.
