How to talk about Health Care in the Catholic Church
The latest commercial targets Senator Casey and his promotion using Pennsylvania tax dollars to fund abortion.
On December 15, 2009 the United States Catholic Conference of Bishops realeased a document regarding abortion and health care reform. Below is a small excerpt followed by the entire article.
Don’t permit federal funds for elective abortion coverage for first time in decades
Let legal immigrants access health benefits for which they pay taxes
Three issues for bishops: respect life and conscience; affordability; fair access for immigrants

Take Action
The following link allows one to take action and contact their Senator in opposition to providing funding for abortion in the health care reform. It would be beneficial to include this link in your parish website, bulletin, or school announcements.
