I am asking one last time: Have any of these 301 bishops spoken out to defend the Church teaching or on the primacy of life issues in the coming election? (I have removed the names of those bishops who were part of the statements issued by the Catholic conferences of New York State, Florida, Kansas, and Pennsylvania.) If there are more homilies, interviews, or press releases that have not gotten exposure outside their diocese, I would appreciate knowing about them. You can list them in the comments section. This will help us to create as comprehensive a list as possible. Thus far, over 115 bishops have gone "on the record," and among those are 75 ordinaries of the 197 dioceses and archdioceses in the United States. This is a historical moment in the history of the Catholic Church and American politics – there has never been this level of public discussion by bishops about an election, not even close!
