WASHINGTON, January 19, 2005 (LifeSiteNews.com) – American Life League, the nation’s largest grassroots Catholic pro-life educational organization, will hold a press conference on Monday, Jan. 24 to unveil a two-page ad identifying the 72 pro-abortion Catholics in both the U.S. House and the U.S. Senate.
The ad, which will span two full pages, is scheduled to run in the Washington Times on Jan. 24.
The pro-life group has undertaken several similar ad campaigns which serve to incite public awareness of politicians who claim to be Catholic while supporting what the Catholic Church teaches to be murder of the innocent.
Previous ads have also directly challenged Catholic religious leaders to take action to curb the scandal of prominent Catholics within their dioceses who support abortion.
A similar ad in California asked Catholic bishops to make clear to all in their flock that one cannot be pro-abortion and still be a Catholic in good standing.
