McCloud has
claimed that he was not aware of Davis’ position on abortion and that his role
on the campaign was minimal. However, Davis’ stance on abortion was clear during
the election. Her campaign was strongly backed by Planned Parenthood and the
pro-abortion PAC Annie’s List raised hundreds of thousands of dollars on her
behalf while McCloud was her treasurer.
The Campaign
for Human Development has been long criticized for funding many groups that
advocate abortion, so-called same-sex marriage, and contraception. A number of pro-life bloggers have been
calling for McCloud’s ouster. We join them today. Faith on Trial is where we examine the influence of law and society on people of faith. Here we will look at those cases and events that impinge on the rights of people to fully practice their faith. Faith on Trial is heard every Saturday at 2 p.m. and Sunday at 9 p.m. on the Iowa Catholic Radio Network and anytime on our podcast at : https://iowacatholicradio.com/faith-on-trial/.

And we wonder why we are losing: USCCB official is campaign treasurer of pro-abortion senator who defeated a pro-life incumbent and filibustered against Texas pro-life legislation
Ralph
McCloud, director of the Catholic Campaign for Human Development, an arm of the
U. S. Conference for Catholic Bishops, was the campaign treasurer for Texas
State Senator Wendy Davis, who recently carried out an eleven-hour filibuster
against a pro-life bill in the state legislature. McCloud served as Davis’
campaign treasurer in 2008 when she defeated a pro-life incumbent.
