Contributing sentiments towards policy:

50% : At a January 2022 Mass for the Walk for Life West Coast, he said that abortion has become an inverted "blessed sacrament."
45% : "As political issues, homelessness and abortion are treated as separate things," the archbishop has said.
40% : Why does the archbishop link the Eucharist to politicians' actions on abortion?
40% : "When politicians pontificate about abortion as a choice or even a human right, do we see beyond the rhetoric to the ugliness of what they propose: the deliberate snuffing out of innocent lives, each one of them unique, irreplaceable, and loved by God?" he asks.
39% : "But with the Catholic sacramental sense we can see that whether we are speaking of the unhoused or the unborn, the underlying issue is the same: Can we see beyond the merely material to the deeper spiritual reality?" Has abortion has become a parallel religion?
39% : This is why, he explained, "we see such visceral and violent reaction to any even minimal regulation of abortion in the law."
