I am a Clergy member in Texas. With the new tax laws, unreimbursed expenses do not help me. I have taken them every year, is it necessary to include them or can I remove?

If you are a W2 employee they are not a deduction for 2018. In some states, it might make a difference but since you live in Texas, it won't. You do not need to include on your federal return.

Job-related expenses for employees are no longer deductible on most people’s federal return in tax years 2018 through 2025 due to the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (TCJA) that Congress signed into law on December 22, 2017.
