Do American Catholics Really Oppose Abortion? December 04, 2021
Jamie Manson, the new leader of Catholics for Choice, outlines the ways Catholic attitudes towards abortion access have changed and her group’s strategy for destigmatizing the issue for Catholics who may not be comfortable with the progressive side of the church. Manson, who is a lesbian married to another woman, also discusses the impact of her hiring at Catholics for Choice as it tries to reach more people in a church that condemns both homosexuality and same-sex marriage.
