"Today, Congress passed a massive pork barrel budget that includes
over half a billion dollars directed to Planned Parenthood, the nation’s
largest abortion provider....For a Republican majority in the House
and Senate [to] include tax dollars for Planned Parenthood is
counter-purposes to establishing a true pro-life majority that can
protect pre-born babies from the barbarity of abortion" (Operation Rescue, 2/9/18)
"President Trump signed a bipartisan budget agreement Friday morning....The Senate passed the measure 71-28 [See https://www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_lists/roll_call_vote_cfm.cfm?congress=115&session=2&vote=00031.] ....The House ultimately passed the measure on a bipartisan 240-186 vote [See http://clerk.house.gov/evs/2018/roll069.xml.]" (NPR, 2/9/18).

"There are two principles we need to remember. First, we need to treat all
people with the respect and pastoral concern they deserve as children
of God with inherent dignity. This emphatically includes persons with
same-sex attraction. Second, there is no truth, no real mercy, and no
authentic compassion, in blessing a course of action that leads persons
away from God. This in no way is a rejection of the persons
seeking such a blessing, but rather a refusal to ignore what we know to
be true about the nature of marriage, the family, and the dignity of
human sexuality....
Jesus said the truth will make us free. Nowhere did he suggest it
will make us comfortable. We still need to hear the truth clearly—and
share it, clearly, always with love. Creating confusion around
important truths of our faith, no matter how positive the intention,
only makes a difficult task more difficult" (Archbishop Chaput, 2/6/18).
