CV NEWS FEED // In a recent National Catholic Reporter (NCR) interview, Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) flaunted her disobedience of San Francisco Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone by saying she continued to receive Communion despite his pastoral letter stating that she could no longer receive in his diocese.
Pelosi told NCR, “I received Communion anyway. That’s his problem, not mine. My Catholic faith is, Christ is my savior. It has nothing to do with the bishops.”
>>STAND WITH ARCHBISHOP CORDILEONE<<
In 2022, Archbishop Cordileone published a letter stating that Pelosi must be denied Communion in the Archdiocese of San Francisco unless she repented of her support for abortion, as CatholicVote previously reported.
Archbishop Cordileone reminded Pelosi in the letter: “The Church’s ancient and consistent teaching that ‘from the first moment of conception life must be guarded with the greatest care while abortion and infanticide are unspeakable crimes.’”
He continued, “A Catholic legislator who supports procured abortion, after knowing the teaching of the Church, commits a manifestly grave sin which is a cause of most serious scandal to others.”
He then cited Canon 915 from the Catholic Code of Canon Law, writing: “Therefore, universal Church law provides that such persons ‘are not to be admitted to Holy Communion.’”
CatholicVote reported on Pelosi’s pro-abortion record in 2022, outlining 10 instances of her repudiation of the Catholic faith through her political stances.
