The State of Connecticut Persecution of the Catholic Church

Your Church could be next!

State of Connecticut really wants the Catholic Church in the worst way. As you may already know, Bishop Lori is filing a civil suit against the state. The State claims that our Constitutional First Amendment rights to assembly, speech and religion were not rights at all, but actually ‘lobbying”! And thus, the Church violated the law by lobbying without a license! Now we are subject to civil penalties.

Bishop Lori said: "Never did I imagine that our activities defending ourselves from a government attack on our right of religious self-governance would be met with another government action subjecting our Church to an ‘evaluation’ for those activities!" You can read the Diocese's statement here.
