"This particular race is a good indication of where our country and our Church are at the moment."

We are being watched! As per a letter to Catholic columnist Matt Abbott,

  • "My wife and I are supporting a wonderful pro-life GOP congressional candidate, Mike Fitzpatrick, in the race for Pennsylvania's 8th district....
  • "It might be interesting to contrast a candidate like this with his opponent.... Congressman Murphy...has a 100 percent rating from the National Abortion Rights Action League, which gave him its endorsement here.
  • "Mike Fitzpatrick, on the other hand, has a 100 percent approval rating from the National Right to Life Committee. He is the only pro-life U.S. congressman to have served Pennsylvania's 8th district since before Roe v. Wade....
  • "This particular race is a good indication of where our country and our Church are at the moment. On one hand we have faithful, orthodox and loyal Christians living our their faith in the public square; on the other we have nominally Christian politicians claiming to be faithful while contradicting Church teaching on many issues. It's important to raise awareness among the pro-life community about what is at stake in November, and I think this race is a great example of that. "
