The Catholic News Agency reports the Nevada bishop issued the statement Jan. 24 in response to a column by U.S. Rep. Susie Lee, a pro-abortion Democrat who professes to be Catholic.
“If a politician from the Diocese of Las Vegas finds himself or herself at odds with the church’s teaching on the sacredness of human life, I ask him or her voluntarily to refrain from the reception of Holy Communion while holding public office,” Thomas said.
He urged Catholic politicians to examine their hearts and consider the church’s teachings about the dignity of every human life. Thomas also welcomed Lee and other pro-abortion politicians to speak with him privately about the matter.
