“The Gospel and Catholic teaching require us to serve those in need and to work for a more just society and world.
Both charity and justice are required by our faith. As citizens in the most powerful democracy on earth,
we have unique opportunities to use our voices and votes to shape a more caring community,
a more just nation, and a more peaceful world.”
