The Catholic League has filed an amicus brief in New Jersey defending the rights of priests. We are represented by the Pittsburgh office of Leech Tishman; our attorney is Russell Giancola. The lead attorneys for the case are from Cooper Levenson in Atlantic City, New Jersey. This case began almost seven years ago. Following the Pennsylvania [...]
In March, a Kansas-based group, The Satanic Grotto, announced that it was planning to hold a "Black Mass" on grounds surrounding the Kansas State Capitol in Topeka at the end of the month. The Satanic Grotto admitted that the purpose of the "Black Mass" is to engage in blasphemy targeted at Catholics. On Facebook, it said, [...]
William A. Donohue On his first day in office, President Trump issued an executive order declaring there are only "two sexes, male and female." It says a lot about our society that this even has to be said. This same phenomenon—denying the existence of human nature and Biology 101—exists throughout western civilization. At bottom, this is [...]

We pledged to do everything we can to assist her in this effort. In his letter [...]
No one has done a better job addressing modern-day child abuse than Sen. Josh Hawley. That is why Bill Donohue wrote to him on February 24 asking him to expand his reach. Donohue commended him for introducing a bill, "The Jamie Reed Protecting Our Kids from Child Abuse Act," that would allow minors who were harmed [...]
The extremely bizarre movie, "Conclave," won some awards at the Screen Actors Guild, and other film festivals, but it walked away with only one Oscar, and not a coveted one. Few go to the movies anymore, so if you missed out on this one, let us explain why it didn’t pan out the way those associated [...]
Eight-in-ten Americans are against boys and men competing against girls and women in sports and showering with them. Even two-in-three Democrats take this position.
