"Cowardice asks the question, ‘is it safe?’...."

Pennsylvania Catholic Conference (selected links)
The Bucks County delegation could - at best - be described as MINIMALLY aligned to us on pro life and pro marriage/family concerns (This is perhaps most painfully obvious among those who identify themselves as our fellow Catholics.).


1/18/16 update
The Bucks County Delegation in Harrisburg
As per the Pa Catholic Conference, “Please respect the concerns of all parties involved in adoption proceedings and vote no on HB 162 in its current form.”
"Funding priority should be given to health care facilities that offer comprehensive women's health care, not those
that treat women and children as callously as Planned Parenthood….[include] the language of House Bill 1623 in the Fiscal Code.”
 “I am writing in reference to HB 1510 / SB 974…. Simply put, this legislation is intolerant and prejudiced against people of faith.”
