State Issues, 10/17/17 update

Pa Catholic Conference

  • Sexual Orientation, Gender Identity, Gender Expression and Religious Liberty
    "Changing the Pennsylvania Human Relations Act (PHRA) will jeopardize many churches and their charitable outreach if they continue to adhere to their religious beliefs....proposals like these expose even more Pennsylvanians to discrimination based solely on their religious beliefs. Simply put, this legislation is intolerant and prejudiced against people of faith." 
  • Support a Better Life for Human Trafficking Victims 
    [While the Pa Catholic Conference is supporting SB 554, doesn't the  fact that Senator Daylin Leach is one of its prime sponsors suggest that there should be careful assessment of  whether this legislation and its implications are truly consistent with Catholic teaching?]

Pa Pro Life Federation 

As per the 9/29/17 PA Pro-Life Legislative Alert,
