(RNS) A progressive Catholic group is kicking off a new nun-led bus tour ahead of the midterm elections that organizers say is designed to hold congressional Republicans accountable for their votes on taxes and health care.
Sister Simone Campbell, a nun and lawyer who heads the Catholic social justice lobbying group Network, launched the Nuns on the Bus Tax Justice Truth Tour at a press conference Monday morning (Oct. 8) in Santa Monica, Calif. Organizers said the new campaign will involve 30 Catholic nuns attending 54 events in 21 states, concluding Nov. 2 outside Mar-a-Lago President Trumps Florida golf resort with a Fiesta for the Common Good.
After opening her remarks by speaking briefly in Spanish, Campbell expressed hope that the tour will draw attention to policies that benefit poorer Americans and push back against what she characterized as Republican efforts to curtail them especially the recent GOP tax bill, which was signed into law by President Trump in December 2017.
Nuns on the Bus is headed on the road today to expose the lies about the Republican tax law and hold the people who voted for it accountable ahead of the 2018 midterms, she said at the event, which was live-streamed on Facebook by Network and House Democratic leader Nancy Pelosis team. We have to end the unpatriotic lie of individualism, and instead recognize the constitutional truth of We the People.

Stakes, faggots, torches!!!
Nuts on their Butts.
And ironically, these “nuns on a bus” will be among the first to be thrown UNDER the bus when the people they support actually take power.
If the Catholic Church had a Pope he would demand that these witches stop acting like they represent the Church.
These hos have never paid any taxes in their lives. They need to be taxed and maybe they’ll STFU. Georgie Soros’ girls.
Its Nunya business.

But they don’t want to hold Democrats accountable for their stance on abortion?
Them’s nuns? They look like Wednesday night bingo.
How much has Soros given them?
I'd much rather hear from these nuns....
Oh cripes. The Order of Atilla the Nuns going on a road trip.
They’re a vicious group known for their unmerciful yardstick smiting of the innocent.
This is getting out of hand
They volunteer at abortion clinics on their off days of protesting.
How dare they! Feminist nuns are disgusting. They’re no better than any other radical feminists. And to use their church to push their garbage is a disgrace!
The real lie is socialism/communism.
Millions of people have been killed trying to force this unnatural system on people. It doesn't fit with God's design is the reason it doesn't work. IMHO.
“social justice lobbying group” my ass. In the DC area where they were literally formed many decades ago, they were ALWAYS supporters of communist front groups supporting the Sandnistas, the FLMN of El Salvador, the Sendero Luminossa of Peru, and if I recall accurately, Castro’s Cuba and Hugh Chavez’s Marxist paradise of Venezuela.
They are more “liberation theology” Marxists than “social justice warriors”.
The Church seems to be spending more and more time and energy on all things that have nothing to do with carrying the Good News of the Gospels....when does a Christian Church stop deserving the name?
