Wade<\/em>, the Iowa Democrat has <a href=\"https:\/\/catholicvote.org\/scorer\/cindy-axne\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">supported<\/a> the Women\u2019s Health Protection Act, a proposal that sought to make abortion available until the time of birth.<\/p>\n<p>The issue of Democrats supporting abortion has taken on greater significance with President Joe Biden, a self-proclaimed Catholic, in office. Despite his Catholic background, the president has advocated on behalf of abortion rights, drawing sharp criticism from many in the faith community.<\/p>\n<p>On Friday, Biden signed an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.whitehouse.gov\/briefing-room\/presidential-actions\/2022\/07\/08\/executive-order-on-protecting-access-to-reproductive-healthcare-services\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">executive order<\/a> to support abortion rights. The order cannot overturn the court\u2019s ruling but includes other instructions, including a call to the Justice Department to ensure women can travel out of state for abortion care.<\/p>\n<p>The order also includes plans to provide leave for federal workers traveling for medical care related to abortion.<\/p>\n<p>Faith leaders across the country blasted the action, including Archbishop William Lori of Baltimore, chairman of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops\u2019 Committee on Pro-Life Activities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is deeply disturbing and tragic that President Biden is choosing instead to use his power as President of the United States to promote and facilitate abortion in our country, seeking every possible avenue to deny unborn children their most basic human and civil right, the right to life. Rather than using the power of the executive branch to increase support and care to mothers and babies, the president\u2019s executive order seeks only to facilitate the destruction of defenseless, voiceless human beings,\u201d Lori shared in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.usccb.org\/news\/2022\/bishop-chairman-responds-executive-order-abortion-access\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">statement<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI implore the president to abandon this path that leads to death and destruction and to choose life. As always, the Catholic Church stands ready to work with this Administration and all elected officials to protect the right to life of every human being and to ensure that pregnant and parenting mothers are fully supported in the care of their children before and after birth,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to Biden, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), also a self-proclaimed Catholic, made headlines over <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/pro-abortion-pelosi-receives-communion-at-the-vatican\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">taking communion<\/a> at the Vatican during a trip in June despite her pro-abortion views.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A new political ad from CatholicVote has lashed out against a Catholic Democrat for not speaking out against vandalism targeting churches and pro-life pregnancy centers.
