As the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) debates whether or not President Joe Biden should be barred from receiving Holy Communion, a new poll from CatholicVote shows that roughly three-quarters of Catholics agree that pro-abortion politicians should not be allowed to receive Holy Communion.

“Catholic politicians who advocate for policies considered ‘gravely immoral’ create confusion and discord among believers,” CatholicVote President Brian Burch said in a statement. “Catholics’ concern about the flouting of Catholic social teaching by public leaders is less about politics and more about the integrity of the faith, along with reverence and respect due the Holy Eucharist.”
