BALTIMORE ARCHDIOCESE PRAISES SUPREME COURT ABORTION RULING

The Archdiocese of Baltimore is praising the Supreme Court’s decision overturning the Roe v. Wade abortion ruling.  Speaking while on a pilgrimage to Germany, Baltimore Archbishop William Lori said the ruling is good news for the nation and for the “cause of life.”  He also said he thinks it is a moment for Catholics to redouble efforts to surround women in difficult pregnancies with “love and care and services.”  At the same time, Lori said he realizes the decision simply brings the issue back to the states.  He added, “In Maryland, abortion remains the law of the land, sadly.”
