Bill Donohue In a 6-3 decision, the U.S. Supreme Court held that the First Amendment rights of a Colorado woman, Lorie Smith, must be respected when it comes to forcing her to express beliefs that are contrary to her conscience. This is a great victory for free speech and freedom of religion. Catholic League submitted an [...]
Bill Donohue More than 30 congressional Democrats who call themselves Catholic issued a robust defense of abortion-on-demand on June 24 claiming their position is entirely in keeping with the teachings of the Catholic Church. They know this is not true. “The Statement of Principles,” led by Rep. Rosa DeLauro, was issued in response to the Supreme [...]
Bill Donohue Rabbi Aryeh Spero passed away on June 25. I knew him for decades and consider him to be one of the most brilliant and bravest men I have ever known. Kind and thoughtful, he was a stalwart in the conservative movement. He was also a good friend of Catholics. Aryeh was often called “America’s [...]
Bill Donohue It is hard to say what motivates the Biden administration more: the radical LBGT agenda or abortion. Both are representative of the radical left’s obsession with sexuality—one queer, the other straight—and both are way out of touch with the sentiments of most Americans.

Bill Donohue When men with fake female breasts appeared half naked on the White House South Lawn on June 10, President Biden’s press secretary, Karine Jean-Pierre, said the crude stunt—in full view of children—“was not a normal thing that has happened under this administration.” It took her three days to say this. While it may not [...]
Bill Donohue Today we are contacting all 30 owners of Major League Baseball (MLB) imploring them not to repeat the Dodgers stunt; we are also contacting Rob Manfred, the Commissioner of MLB. Here is the text of my remarks: Dear MLB owner: The decision by the Los Angeles Dodgers to invite, disinvite, and reinvite a vile [...]
Bill Donohue Over the past several weeks, the Catholic League blanketed Los Angeles notables asking them to spread the word to their constituents not to attend the “Pride Night” game on June 16 that was slated to honor the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, a viciously anti-Catholic group of drag queens. We also took out 50 radio [...]
Bill Donohue The Los Angeles Dodgers has a code of conduct for fans that is being violated not only by some attendees, but by the team itself. To be specific, giving an award tonight to the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence is an expressed violation of this policy. Among the 19 rules governing fan behavior, the last [...]
Bill Donohue It all began May 16. That was the day we launched a massive email campaign asking our followers to contact Rob Manfred, the Commissioner of Major League Baseball, protesting the decision by the Los Angeles Dodgers to honor the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence on “Pride Night” June 16. The very next day, the Dodgers [...]
