A new report from the Catholic League has identified at least 32 times that Joe Biden has violated fundamental Catholic moral teaching since being inaugurated.
The report, which was sent to the U.S. bishops,”outlines many instances where [Biden’s] decision-making on important moral issues is at variance with established Catholic teachings,” Catholic League president Bill Donohue stated on Monday. “It has been sent to all the bishops in the United States,” Donohue said.
Rejection of Church teaching on matters of prudential judgement isn’t considered in the report, but instead”non-negotiable principles of Catholic belief on vital issues such as human life, religious liberty, and the complementarity of men and women,” Thomas D. Williams, PhD, mentioned .
The Biden government’s decisions flagged from the Catholic League constitute some of the grossest attacks on life, family, and religious freedoms in American history. Approximately one third of these were enacted within ten days of Biden taking office.
Those first actions include executive orders reopening the army to transgender people , institutionalizing transgenderism in children’s schools and athletics, and requiring federal agencies to take care of sexual orientation and”gender identity” as”protected classes.” A statement by the White House two days after the inauguration celebrated Roe v. Wade as a”foundational precedent” and clarified support for the judgment as a litmus test for judicial nominees.
Four violations of core Catholic instruction highlighted in the Catholic League report happened on the exact same day, January 28, where Biden revoked a ban on taxpayer funds for overseas abortions, moved to reinstate funding to Planned Parenthood and the pro-abortion U.N. Population Fund, and doubled down on overseas aid spending to promote”abortion rights.”
The next month, the White House released a”Memorandum on Advancing the Human Rights of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer and Intersex Persons Around the World.”
The memo “will limit the ability of faith-based organizations to assist in foreign aid,” the Catholic League said.
Also in February, Biden nominated Richard Levine — a gender-confused guy who goes by the title of”Rachel” and that supports “sex-changes” for minors — for Assistant Secretary for the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). Levine has since been confirmed by the Senate, as has Biden’s HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra, a defender of this illegal practice of partial-birth abortion.
Joe Biden, America’s self-styled “second Catholic president,” also stepped up radical attacks on religious liberty and longstanding abortion regulations through March and April.
The $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) that Biden signed into law in March lacks crucial Hyde Amendment protections, unlike all previous COVID-19 relief packages, and permits
Almost $500 billion of taxpayer funding for abortion. The multi-trillion dollar national budget suggested by the White House last month comprises no Hyde Amendment language — a first in almost 30 years.
Fourteen days after the White House approved ARPA, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), headed by Biden appointee Janet Woodcock, declared that it would lift restrictions on abortion pills delivered by email. That same week, the HHS moved to mandate abortion referrals for groups engaging in Title X, the national family planning program, and rescinded restrictions on experimentation on aborted babies’ bodies.
The Catholic League report also noted several times that Biden’s HHS has sued to force doctors to do transgender surgeries.
