Trump meets Pope Francis: The Vatican had been nervous about today’s meeting with President Donald Trump. A source close to the Holy Father told me he had been practicing his Russian all week! (That’s a joke.) Seri...
MGB: My guess is that this statement was negotiated with the USCCB long before the meeting occurred, hence the reference to freedom of conscience. The budget likely did not make the time deadline, has not been read by the Vatican or has been and is considered DOA anyway. That migrants are mentioned is telling and means that there might have been some gentle scolding going on. Bravo to the Vatican for not mentioning much on abortion. It shows an understanding that this is mostly not an issue where anything is actually happening (except that the budget will cause an uptick in the abortion rate).
