I too do the same thing but here is what my account has said to me, if I get audited they may pick on these items to be disallowed so be prepared.

Politics is a game of engagement
In order for you to change something you don’t like, to change something for the betterment of your country or to change just for the need of change, you must be involved, engaged and vocal.
So don’t blame me if Congress passes laws that affect you, your family or your rights
