Abortion activists were livid yesterday that the Supreme Court protected the Little Sisters of the Poor from having to fund abortions. But presidential candidate Joe Biden has some words of reassurance for them. he promises, if elected, that he will force the Catholic nuns to fund abortions.

As LifeNews reported, the Supreme Court issued a ruling upholding a pro-life order from President Donald Trump that protected the Little Sisters of the Poor from being force to pay for abortion-causing drugs under their health insurance plan. Abortion advocates have spent years trying to force the Catholic nuns to fund the destruction of unborn babies in abortions.

In comments after the ruling, Biden said he was not happy with the decision and said if elected he would overturn President Trump’s rule protecting the Catholic nuns and Christians Americans who don’t want their tax dollars to pay for killing babies.

Biden said, “As disappointing as the Supreme Court’s ruling is, there is a clear path to fixing it: electing a new President who will end Donald Trump’s ceaseless attempts to gut every aspect of the Affordable Care Act. If I am elected, I will restore the Obama-Biden policy that existed before the Hobby Lobby ruling.”

That policy is the Obama abortion mandate that Christian churches, businesses, colleges and religious orders had to take to court because it would compel them to pay potentially millions of dollars in fines for refusing to obey its mandate to fund abortion pills in their health insurance plans.

Brian Burch, President of CatholicVote, a national faith-based advocacy organization, told LifeNews.com that every pro-life voter in America needs to understand the vast differences between the pro-life policies of President trump and the pro-abortion agenda of Joe Biden.

“Joe Biden has removed any remaining doubt about how his administration would mistreat and marginalize Catholics if elected,” he said.

He added: “From his support for taxpayer-funded pro-abortion extremism, to his pledge to continue to harass the Little Sisters of the Poor, Biden will be a wrecking ball against all things that Catholics hold dear. All Catholics in America must speak out forcefully against these threats, lest the Catholic Church in America be trampled.”
