Congressman Chris Smith has faithfully served in the House of Representatives for 28 years. He is one Catholic who has remained faithful to the truth. He refuses to compromise on the fundamental human rights cause of our age, the Right to Life. The Pro-Life position is not simply a "religious" position - though the Congressman is a faithful Catholic Christian - it is a human rights position. The Right to Life is the foundation of every human rights issue. It is precisely because we recognize the dignity of every human person that we care about the poor...He is leading the effort to prevent the use of military hospitals, equipment and personnel for the killing of children through abortion, funded by tax payer dollars. Senator Roland Burris, right before Memorial Day, slipped nefarious language into an amendment which, if unopposed would have led to such bloodshed. The Senator's spokesman Jim O'Connor told an Anti-Right to Life reporter that the Senator was approached by the notorious NARAL Pro-Choice America and other Anti-Right to Life lobbyists, as well as the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU). They asked him to sponsor legislation which would repeal the long standing prohibition on killing children in the womb by abortion on military bases, both in the United States and Abroad.
LifeSite News, in a story written by Lames Tillman entitled "Rep. Chris Smith to Introduce "No Taxpayer Funding for Abortion Act" reported on Thursday on another example of this courageous and faithful public servant defending human rights for our youngest neighbors. In the wake of the dangers clearly surrounding the current health care legislation and its implementation in a manner which would result in the funding of abortion, Representative Smith will introduce legislation on July 29, 2010 which will ensure it does not happen.

This is wonderful. I’ll check it out.
I worked for another Catholic group during the last election but have been looking for something that is a better fit for me.
Where does the New Catholic Action/Chris Smith stand on path to citizenship amnesty?
That depends on whether he follows the dictates of the Catholic bishops...
All I’ve got to say about THAT is....the Catholic Church is lucky I’m not Catholic.
