Defend the Right to Speak the Truth!
The First Amendment Defense Act has received the ringing support of the USCCB:
- "As the respective chairmen of the U.S. bishops’
Subcommittee for the Promotion and Defense of Marriage and the Ad Hoc
Committee for Religious Liberty, we write in strong support of... the
First Amendment Defense Act (FADA)....It is becoming apparent that some
who promote marriage redefinition do not support the coexistence and
tolerance of different ideas in a pluralistic society but instead have a
'comply or else' agenda....The leadership of our Church will continue
to promote and protect the natural truth of marriage as foundational to
the common good....we urge your colleagues to join ...as cosponsors" (Archbishops Cordileone and Lori, 6/18/15 letters to Representative Raúl Labrador (H.R. 2802) and Senator Mike Lee (S. 1598))
Kudos to Pa Representatives Mike Kelly (R), Tom Marino (R), Tim Murphy (R), Scott Perry (R), Joe Pitts (R), and Keith Rothfus (R) for co-sponsoring HR 2802. Bravo Bravissimo!

Lou Barletta (R), Brendan Boyle (D), Bob Brady (D), Matt Cartwright
(D), Ryan Costello (R), Charlie Dent (R), Mike Doyle (D), Chaka Fattah
(D), Mike Fitzpatrick (R), Pat Meehan (R), Bill Shuster (R), and Glenn Thompson (R) to co-sponsor HR 2802!
