A religious freedom battle is brewing in Montana

(SRN NEWS) – Lawmakers are considering a bill that would require members of the clergy to report to police any person who confesses to abusing a child.

The Supreme Court has already recognized a clergy exception in mandatory reporting laws and legal action could be coming in Montana.
