US EditionPope Intervenes in US Abortion Debate by Raising What It Really Means to Be ‘Pro
Pope Leo XIV emphasized opposition to abortion, capital punishment, and inhumane immigration policies as essential to being truly pro-life, amid U.S. Catholic Church disputes.
- This year, Pope Leo XIV intervened in a U.S. abortion dispute, raising a seeming contradiction over 'pro-life' and urging Catholics to search together as church teaching is clear.
- Chicago Cardinal Blase Cupich planned a Nov. 3 award for Illinois Senator Dick Durbin and defended honoring him for his pro-immigration work despite objections from conservative U.S. bishops amid U.S. polarization.
- Pope Leo XIV said the label 'pro‑life' should include opposition to the death penalty, stating `Someone who says 'I’m against abortion but says I am in favor of the death penalty' is not really pro-life`.
- Senator Dick Durbin declined the lifetime-achievement award announced by Chicago Cardinal Blase Cupich, Springfield Bishop Thomas Paprocki thanked Durbin and urged prayers, while White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said the administration `is trying to enforce our nation's laws in the most humane way possible.`
- Some U.S. bishops had urged denying Communion to politicians like former President Joe Biden, Cardinal Blase Cupich advised Pope Francis, and ABC's The View mocked the pope's framing this year.
