Pro-life, broadly speaking

With all due respect, I do not think that Cardinal Dolan actually tells it like it is. Society has become more secular, but that does not mean that all Catholic Democrats espouse the party line about abortion. Cardinal Dolan should understand that being pro-life is not only for the unborn. Being pro-life also includes taking care of our children, the sick, the poor, the elderly and the disabled. The current administration is in the process of shredding the safety net by slashing the Children’s Health Insurance Program, food stamps, Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security. Pope Francis encourages all of us to take care of the poor. The current administration is the antithesis of his teaching and a good reason why I cannot support their conduct.
