Speaking now, during a broader discussion of the Eucharist, Bishop Joseph Strickland of Tyler, TX, calls for an "army of Catholic politicians" who agree with the Church's opposition to abortion. #USCCB21 — PolitiTweet.org

The document has overwhelmingly passed, with 222 yes votes and only a handful of abstentions and "no" votes. — PolitiTweet.org

Archbishop Joseph Naumann of Kansas City, KS directly addresses politics, calling on bishops to "dialogue" with Catholic public officials on abortion: "If the Catholics [in office] supported the Church's teaching, we would have bipartisan supermajorities." #USCCB21 — PolitiTweet.org

Bishop Joseph Strickland of Tyler, TX asks for reconsideration of a rejected proposed amendment - which would emphasize the "grave reality of scandal" of people taking Communion improperly. That request is rejected by voice vote. #USCCB21 — PolitiTweet.org
Sarah McCammon📻 @sarahmccammon
Biegler's proposed changes - emphasizing concern for poverty and human trafficking victims - fail on a voice vote. #USCCB21 — PolitiTweet.org
Sarah McCammon📻 @sarahmccammon
Bishop Kevin Rhoades, who leads the Committee on Doctrine in charge of formulating this document, says that the document is not exhaustive in its list of concerns and that care for the poor is mentioned elsewhere. #USCCB21 — PolitiTweet.org
Sarah McCammon📻 @sarahmccammon
Debate on the Eucharistic document has begun at #USCCB21. Cheyenne Bishop Steven Biegler proposes adding a reference to protecting people in poverty to a line that refers to protecting "the unborn." — PolitiTweet.org

@Wallacewriter Yes, this seems like a good hypothesis! — PolitiTweet.org

One other note from #USCCB21 - bishops amended the draft Eucharistic document to clarify that Catholics should not only refrain from food but also drink one hour before partaking, apparently prompted by concern that "Often people drink #coffee even in church/during Mass..." — PolitiTweet.org

It calls on the bishop to "guard the integrity of the sacrament" and on individual Catholics to "make a good examination of conscience" before taking Communion./ — PolitiTweet.org
Sarah McCammon📻 @sarahmccammon
The draft says partaking in that situation is likely to cause scandal, and, "It is the special responsibility of the diocesan bishop to work to remedy situations that involve public actions at variance with the visible communion of the Church and the moral law." 8/ — PolitiTweet.org
Sarah McCammon📻 @sarahmccammon
The draft quotes a 2006 church document: "If a Catholic in his or her personal or professional life were knowingly and obstinately to reject the defined doctrines of the Church...he or she should refrain" from receiving Communion. 7/ — PolitiTweet.org
Sarah McCammon📻 @sarahmccammon
The draft quotes the Second Vatican Council, which includes many actions that "poison human society," among them "murder, genocide, abortion, euthanasia...subhuman living conditions, arbitrary imprisonment, deportation, slavery, prostitution...disgraceful working conditions." 6/ — PolitiTweet.org
Sarah McCammon📻 @sarahmccammon
On the next page, the draft cautions against viewing human life as disposable, and calls on Catholics to "protect the most vulnerable in our midst: the unborn, migrants and refugees, victims of racial injustice, the sick and the elderly." 5/ — PolitiTweet.org
Sarah McCammon📻 @sarahmccammon
Without mentioning names, the draft states: "Lay people who exercise some form of public authority have a special responsibility to form their consciences in accord with the Church's faith and the moral law, and to serve the human family by upholding human life and dignity." 4/ — PolitiTweet.org

I'm at #USCCB in Baltimore again today, where bishops are slated to debate/vote on a document related to Holy Communion - controversial because of calls by some conservative bishops to deny Communion to Catholic politicians who support abortion rights, such as President Biden./ — PolitiTweet.org

Sarah McCammon📻 @sarahmccammon
The Bishops just spent several minutes discussing the draft document about the Eucharist. Today was an opportunity for clarifying questions, none of which related to Catholic public officials who support abortion rights. Tomorrow will be an opportunity for debate/vote. #USCCB21 — PolitiTweet.org
