Pelosi on Catholic bishop's comments about receiving Communion: 'I can use my own judgment on that'
Fox News
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi responded to Catholic bishops who do not believe she should receive Communion due to her views on abortion by saying that she can use her own judgment on the matter.
"It basically says don't be divisive on the subject. Thank you," Pelosi said before exiting the conference. The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops will convene for a national meeting next month, with plans to vote on drafting guidelines for Communion. Some bishops have been pressing for President Biden and other public figures who support abortion to be excluded from the sacrament. The head of the Vatican’s doctrine office issued a warning to the conference to deliberate carefully to avoid sowing division.More Related News
