BREAKING: At Pope Leo XIV’s urging, U.S. Catholic bishops just delivered the strongest rebuke of a sitting president in Church history — condemning Trump-Vance raids as “inhumane” and “dehumanizing” in a 216–5 vote.
NEW: At Pope Leo’s Urging, Bishops Issue Historic Rebuke of Trump’s Raids
Nearly all U.S. Catholic bishops united in Baltimore to denounce the Trump administration’s “inhumane” deportation campaign — a near-unanimous, unprecedented moral stand against a sitting president.

We are 10 months into Trump’s presidency and Republican control of Washington.
The only major thing they’ve accomplished is Trump’s “big beautiful bill,” which kicks 10 million Americans off their health care, strips food assistance from millions more, and hands $1T in tax cuts to the top 1%.

Only 21% of S.C. businesses with fewer than 50 employees can afford to provide health insurance for their employees.
These employees rely on HealthCare.gov to get coverage.
If Republicans allow premiums to skyrocket, small businesses and their employees will get hit.

Keeping Obamacare premiums from skyrocketing shouldn’t be a partisan issue.
Just as many Republicans are enrolled in a HealthCare.gov plan as Democrats.
Democrats are fighting for all Americans’ health care. Republicans are fighting for their rich donors. It’s that simple.
