Catholic bishops adopt Communion document that doesn't mention politicians who favor abortion access

The Catholic bishops of the United States have paved the way for President Joe Biden to continue receiving Holy Communion despite his opposition to some tenets of Catholic social teaching.

The United States Conference of Catholic Bishops voted 222-8-3 Wednesday to adopt a document that did not address whether those who advocate for widespread access to abortions, such as Biden and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, both of whom are Catholic, could be denied the sacrament of Holy Communion.
