Catholic bishops sound 'alarm' on Equal Rights Amendment, saying it will hurt religious freedom
Fox News
The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops released a letter Monday urging senators to oppose a motion that would remove the decades-passed deadline for the ratification of the Equal Rights Amendment.
"We are writing to you to express our alarm with a number of far-reaching consequences that will arise from the proposed Equal Rights Amendment (ERA), and its negative impacts to the common good and to religious freedom," the USCCB wrote. "We strongly urge you to oppose it and any resolution attempting to declare it ratified." Timothy Nerozzi is a writer for Fox News Digital.
