MEDIA APPEARANCE ALERT: ALL's Judie Brown on EWTN's by Katie Walker Released August 13, 2009
American Life League president Judie Brown will appear on EWTN’s The World Over with Raymond Arroyo to discuss health care reform with Catholic Health Association president Sr. Carol Keehan on Friday, August 14 at 8:00 p.m. ET.
When American Life League exposed the Catholic Health Association’s campaign in support of President Obama’s health care plan, Brown and Keehan were thrown into opposite sides of a contentious debate.
“Simply put, Catholics cannot support health care that includes killing,” Brown said. “The Obama plan includes a mandate for tax-subsidized abortion, euthanasia, contraception, rationed care and sex education. Where is social justice in that? Where is the mercy, love and compassion for the weakest in society?”
American Life League exposed the scandal when Catholic Health Association, Catholic Charities and the St. Vincent de Paul Society joined together to support “health care reform now.” Their campaign included action alerts to call Congress in support of health care legislation and the showing of a video that featured President Obama rallying Congress.
“These Catholic organizations are contending that they are simply supporting health 'reform,' but that line is disingenuous at best when the only health reform on the table is Obama’s abortion and euthanasia mandate. These organizations are putting human lives at the mercy of misguided justice."
“Health care reform should reflect Christ's justice, not Obama's justice,” Brown said.
American Life League was cofounded in 1979 by Judie Brown. It is the largest grassroots Catholic pro-life organization in the United States and is committed to the protection of all innocent human beings from the moment of creation to natural death.
