- "In 2026, the Catholic bishops of the US have been preoccupied with the issue of immigration....the issue now commands headlines, and our bishops are giving the matter special attention. Meanwhile the slaughter of the unborn continues, but does not generate headlines. Our bishops dutifully issue statements condemning the practice, but....the sense of urgency is lacking....the proportion of Catholics who attend Mass and marry in the Church and baptize their children continues to decline; young Catholics are still leaving the church in droves.... Sometimes the issues that seem most urgent are not most important" (Phil Lawler, 3/5/26)
