S 1808 / HR 3133 is being championed by the USCCB but NOT by Casey, Fitzpatrick, or Toomey

As per this news item on the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe,

• "Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone of San Francisco, chairman of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops’ Subcommittee for the Promotion and Defense of Marriage, and Archbishop William Lori of Baltimore, chairman of the Ad Hoc Committee for Religious Liberty, expressed strong support for the Marriage and Religious Freedom Act (S. 1808) introduced today in the U.S. Senate by Senator Mike Lee. Both archbishops previously endorsed the companion Marriage and Religious Freedom Act introduced by Rep. Raúl Labrador in the U.S. House of Representatives on September 19, 2013 [i.e., HR 3133].  'The fact that this very important non-discrimination bill has now been introduced in the Senate is quite encouraging,' said Archbishop Cordileone. 'As with the House bill, the Marriage and Religious Freedom Act introduced in the Senate would prohibit the federal government from discriminating against religious believers who hold to the timeless truth that marriage is the union of one man and one woman. This Act, therefore, provides necessary protections. Increasingly, state laws are being used to target individuals and organizations for discrimination simply because they act on their belief that marriage is the union of one man and one woman. Such prejudice must not be allowed to spread to the federal government'" (USCCB Chairmen Praise Introduction of the ‘Marriage and Religious Freedom Act’ in the Senate, 12/12/13).

Neither Bob Casey nor Pat Toomey has joined with Senator Mike Lee and the 11 co-sponsors of S. 1808.  Mike Fitzpatrick has not joined Rep. Raul Labradour and the 91 co-sponsors of HR 3133!
