Proposal 1: A Wolf in Sheep’s Clothing | English, Spanish

Organizing Office:
NYS Catholic Conference
Dates of Event: N/A
Brief Description:
A Statement of the Catholic Bishops of New York State

Proposal 1 is a wolf in sheep’s clothing that could lead to darkness for many New York families. This amendment disregards the lives of unborn and struggling children in the name of political agendas. It could have dangerous consequences for these children and their parents. As they look to make their voices heard in the public square, faithful Catholics should consider these consequences and vote no. Likewise, they should thoughtfully vote their informed conscience up and down the ballot so that we might usher in change for good.
