LOUISVILLE, Kentucky — In response to the decision by the Supreme Court of the United States today on FDA v. Alliance for Hippocratic Medicine the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) offered the following statement from its spokesperson, Chieko Noguchi, executive director of public affairs.

“Today’s Court ruling on procedural grounds will continue to put the health of women and girls at risk. As the USCCB’s pro-life chairman has said, abortion is not health care. The Church will continue to advocate for women’s health and safety, and to lovingly serve mothers in need.”

Bishop Edmund Whalen reminds us that we live in hope, through faith, to bring Christ to life – and His presence vanquishes evil.
