Yes, there certainly should be a law. There should be legislators and laws that keep elites from profiting on the trafficking of the vulnerable. That recognize that pornography does not belong where little ones and teens can view it or have it displayed in schools. That understand that human dignity is God-given to all people, including the poverty stricken around the world, men and women in prison, those that are mentally ill and yes, even those carried in someone’s womb. We need laws that support the specific rights listed in our Constitution. This is where our Catholic values come into play.
CatholicVote exists to bring our Catholic Values to the forefront in dealing with those who legislate and the laws they create. The word “Politics” almost immediately calls up the partisan party idea, but we aren’t partisan. No party has a lock on our values so we will support any person who wants to work as a legislator or administrator to write and pass laws that are based on God’s word, because following His way is the only way to peace, whether in the family, the city, the state or the nation. We invite you to participate.
Right now, the Florida Legislature is in session and among the nearly 2,000 bills filed between the House and the Senate are some bills we, as Catholics want to see passed and some we want to squash flat. We want you to help us.
We have prepared a “Legislative Spreadsheet” with the specific bills organized by category. We have Dignity of Life, Parental Rights, Gender and Sexuality issues, Pornography, etc. There are from three to ten bills laid out in each category along with columns that track the bills progress through the process. It looks challenging but is pretty easy to follow. What we need is for folks to pick a category and get up to speed on the several bills in each category, then contact the legislators by email or by phone to tell them that you support or oppose the particular bills. You have no idea how important it is to communicate our wishes to those who may be wavering!
Fill out the form below and we will send you the specifics on how easy it is to get involved and start making a huge difference in our state. To access the currently updated spreadsheet, click here: https://bit.ly/3UBrgrx Freshly added items are now backlit in gold.
Time is passing. The time is now. To quote Matthew Kelly, “Be Bold! Be Catholic!” Together we can do this.
