EWTN ?? I’m sure a few hundred people will see this...
Read Donald Trump’s letter to Catholic leaders
Denver, Colo., Oct 6, 2016 / 01:01 pm (EWTN News/CNA)
Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump wrote a letter to Catholic leaders during a two-day conference in Denver this week, identifying himself as pro-life and vowing to support core values such as religious liberty and school choice.
I have a message for Catholics: I will be there for you. I will stand with you. I will fight for you, he wrote Oct. 5. I am, and will remain, pro-life. I will defend your religious liberties and the right to fully and freely practice your religion, as individuals, business owners and academic institutions.
Trump’s letter was addressed to the 18th Annual Catholic Leadership Conference, being held Oct 4-6 in Denver.
He stated that Catholics are a rich part of our nation’s history and that the United States was, and is, strengthened through Catholic men, women, priests and religious Sisters.
In his letter, Trump pointed to Democratic candidate Hillary Clintons extreme pro-abortion record and support for the HHS mandate, which requires many religious non-profits to fund and facilitate abortion and related products against their religious convictions.
Hillary Clinton supports forcing The Little Sisters of the Poor who have taken care of the elderly poor since 1839, pay [sic] for contraceptives in their health care plan (even though they have never wanted them, never used them and never will), and having the government fine them heavily if they continue to refuse to abide by this onerous mandate, Trump wrote.
He added that Clinton has been hostile to the core issues and policies of greatest concern to Catholics: life, religious liberty, Supreme Court nominations, affordable and quality healthcare, educational choice and home schooling.
The GOP candidate also noted that Tim Kaine, the Democratic vice presidential candidate, has a 100 percent voting record from the National Abortion Rights Action League and supports same-sex marriage, despite professing to be Catholic.
On issues and policies of greatest concern to Catholics, the differences between myself and Hillary Clinton are stark. I will stand with Catholics and fight for you, he said. Hillary Clinton has been openly hostile to these core Catholic issues for a long time, and is only going to be worse with Tim Kaine now following her lead.

Uh, EWTN is a worldwide media behemoth, where have you been?
“EWTN ?? Im sure a few hundred people will see this...”
It’s a satellite network and goes all over the world. It will be more than “a few hundred people”. The interview will probably end up as a video on youtube as well. Millions might watch that in the next week and a half. You never know.
It will go to radio as well.
EWTN's "Insider" blog currently has 999,801 followers by email.
Catholics will see it, and that is a core constituency on life issues. I shall be DVRing it.
Actually, EWTN is the largest religious media network in the world. As of 2015, its programming reached more than 250 million homes in 140 countries and territories.[26] The organization’s revenues were $46,086,481 in 2013.[27]
