Catholic Bishop Thomas John Paprocki of Springfield, Illinois, is suing the state over its new assisted-suicide law, arguing that it forces Catholic hospitals and those who serve in them to violate their religious convictions and participate in a system that promotes suicide.

“At the heart of the Catholic Church’s healthcare ministry is the healing work of Christ—to stand with the suffering, to comfort the dying, and to affirm the God-given dignity of every human life,” Bishop Thomas J. Paprocki said in response to Illinois's new assisted suicide law, the "End of Life Options" Act.
Thomas More Society sued today on behalf of Bishop Paprocki, the Lutheran Care Center, and four Illinois physicians, asking a federal court to block the law before it takes effect on September 12.
@ExceptionalEdVA@KristenWaggoner Catholic Charities serves the poor, the homeless, and the vulnerable - regardless of faith. Defunding them isn't about religion. It's about silencing a viewpoint government disagrees with. That's a problem for all of us.
