U.S. Bishops Issue a “Special Message” on Immigration from Plenary Assembly in Baltimore
As the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) gathered for their Fall Plenary Assembly in Baltimore, the bishops issued a Special Message addressing their concern for the evolving situation impacting immigrants in the United States. It marked the first time in twelve years the USCCB invoked this particularly urgent way of speaking as a body of bishops. The last one issued in 2013 was in response to the federal government’s contraceptive mandate.

More than 75 Nobel Prize winners have signed a letter urging senators not to confirm RFK Jr. to lead HHS.
The letter marks the first time in recent memory that Nobel laureates have banded together against a Cabinet choice. But the confirmation of Kennedy is a threat the Nobel laureates could not ignore, one of them said. https://t.co/urE652o9wV

I’ll be supporting Kamala Harris for President and Tim Walz for Vice President.
I’ve served with Kamala in the U.S Senate. I’ve also served with Tim in the House of Representatives.
I know them. I know first of hand of their fine character and love of country.
I would encourage all Republicans who feel this way to do the same.
