HHS Mandate & Action Alert on Human Trafficking

Life, Justice and Peace Contacts,

I am attaching the USCCB bulletin insert concerning the Conscience Protection alert I sent out last week. The USCCB also released a memo to accompany the insert and provided each in both English and Spanish. Please ask your parish to use the insert in next Sunday’s parish bulletin.

Also attached is an action alert concerning human trafficking. The Trafficking Victims Protection Reauthorization Act expires on September 30, 2011 and Congress must act to reauthorize it. Please contact Senators Murray and Cantwell with the points outlined in the attached email.

Thank you for all you do to uphold the consistent ethic of life,
Jim
