Fr. Pavone: Response to Problems with Health Care Reform is Elections

Priests for Life Announces Formation of Political Responsibility Teams for 2010, 2012

WASHINGTON, Aug. 26 /Christian Newswire/ -- Fr. Frank Pavone, National Director of Priests for Life, the Catholic Church's largest pro-life ministry, stated today, "The reason for the mess we are in with the health care reform debate is the elections of 2008, and the way out of the mess will be the elections of 2010 and 2012."

Priests for Life has announced the formation of "Political Responsibility Teams" in communities across America. The purpose of such teams will be to educate and activate citizens to exercise their responsibility to participate in the electoral process in a way that is informed rather than impulsive, and based on principle rather than mere personal advantage.

"Churches provide our greatest opportunity to mobilize and educate voters," Fr. Pavone explained, "and activating Churches for the pro-life cause is the primary mission of Priests for Life. But Churches can also become the biggest obstacle if they choose the path of fear and hide behind paranoid interpretations of the Internal Revenue Code as an excuse for not talking about politics. We have a lot more to fear from our silence than we do from speaking out."
