Dear CV Friend, 

"One can only wonder..." 

That's what the Archdiocese of Washington D.C. wrote in an editorial this week on the shocking invitation of Sec. Kathleen Sebelius to speak at a commencement awards ceremony for the Public Policy Institute at Georgetown University. 

The Archdiocese newspaper explained: 


“One can only wonder how the selection of Secretary Sebelius for such a prominent role as a featured speaker can be reconciled with the stated Catholic mission and identity of Georgetown University...Secretary Sebelius' vision on what constitutes faith-based institutions presents the most direct challenge to religious freedom in recent history.” 


We agree. 

Georgetown's invitation is a slap in the face to our Bishops and to all the Catholic faithful working to overturn the intrusive assault on our religious freedom. 

That's why we are calling for unity. CatholicsForUnity.com features our open letter to Georgetown officials, urging them to rescind the invite.

Remember this is the same Kathleen Sebelius who last year said: "We are at war" with people like us. She said those infamous words at a major fundraiser for NARAL, one of the largest and most notorious pro-abortion lobbying groups. 

Make no mistake. Kathleen Sebelius is using every lever of power to promote abortion and to cripple our Church's institutions. Her HHS mandate would bury every Catholic charity, hospital and school – including Georgetown University – in an avalanche of fines, if they refuse to comply. 

It's already happening. This week Franciscan University of Steubenville announced that they will no longer offer a student health insurance plan this fall. 

That's why, even on a most basic self-interested level, one wonders why Georgetown would invite the fox into the henhouse. 

Please sign and share our Open Letter to Georgetown today. 


Sincerely, 

Brian Burch, President

P.S. We plan to present this letter along with your signature to Georgetown leadership within days. Please share this email with as many of your friends and family as possible. 

Stand up for Catholic unity! Sign the letter now.
