It sounds like -- if you work for a private nonprofit institution, and the institution receives any Federal money, you then can't run for political office. Which would be stupid, unless we're supposed to institute a professional political "ruling class". I'm not a lawyer, but this seems completely insane.

What does the Hatch Act have to with a local, municipal elected position?

So what that decision is saying is that if I as an RN work for a non profit community Hospital, but I would like to run for public office...I couldn’t because the hospital recieves federal funds(ie medicare)?
That’s an incredible twisting of the law in book!

Does this mean anyone working for ACORN is ineligible?
