I applaud and support Bishop Morlino’s efforts to prevent President Obama’s promise to sign the proposed “Freedom of Choice Act” by providing protest cards.

Since the beginning of 2009, the topic of abortion seems to be the topic of discussion at the local, state, and national levels.
Ave Maria University’s Institute for Pastoral Theology (IPT) will start a new cohort in the fall of 2009. This program leads to a Master of Theological Studies (MTS) degree in pastoral theology, meeting one weekend each month, August through May, for three years.
Editor’s note: The following is Bishop Robert C. Morlino’s statement to the University of Wisconsin Hospitals and Clinics Authority Board meeting of Wednesday, Feb. 4, at which they were to discuss the topic of providing, along with the UW Medical Foundation and Meriter Hospital, second term abortions at the Madison Surgery Center. The statement was to be read by Msgr. Daniel Ganshert, vicar general for the Diocese of Madison, as the bishop was unable to leave the National Catholic Bioethics Center meeting in time for the meeting.
Dear Ladies and Gentlemen of the UW Hospitals and Clinics Authority Board,
Thank you for affording me the opportunity to offer a few words in regard to your discussion on whether to allow for second term abortions at the Madison Surgery Center. I am sorry that I am unable to be here in person, as I am currently concluding a meeting of the National Catholic Bioethics Center, of whose board I am chair.
