I've linked to a good article which explains some of the history and some of the current involvement.
Know about that and even know some of the priests involved in that movement.. I was asking what policy is Pelosi asking the bishops to support?? Is there a new policy in the Senate??
That last formal policy I remember was Ronnie Raygun's Amnesty...

Probably so, but in the past administration the lines got really blurred in many areas and on many issues.... precedent has been set, much to my chagrin.

What do you know about Pelosi's personal religious practices?
Pelosi claims to be a Catholic. The Catholic church considers abortion murder. Hence from the POV of her faith she is advocating murder of the innocent.

To wit... the Pope saying he talked about pro-life views and Nancy talked about her kids.

and the Catholic Church's view, it may shock you to realize, isn't fact. (See pedophilia for a very clear example) So what you meant to say is that she should "stop advocating what the church views as the killing of children." Got it (big difference).
as for her faith, what I was asking is what do you know about her practices regarding confession? Maybe she has been to confession. Regardless, I'm pretty sure that's none of your business.

In short no otherwise all the Black Churches that host sermons by dem politicians would lose their tax exempt status. I don't think Churches are supposed to endorse candidates but that is ignored on a regular basis.

Who said it was a 'fact', try to follow Pelosi is a Catholic, no one forces her to remain a Catholic. The Catholics have beliefs that members of the church are supposed to adhere to. Pelosi doesn't adhere to the church's teaching about abortion.
Whether the church is right or not is besides the point when it comes to Pelosi's status as a member of the Catholic church.
