Catholics are an important part of the American story.
America has been strengthened by hard-working Catholics.
From New York to California, the Catholic story is truly unique and it's a great
story.
From marching for civil rights to educating millions of children,
serving the poor, and helping define the pro-life movement, clergy and lay
Catholics across the country have made countless contributions to the American
success and the American success story.
Washington politicians have been hostile to the church, they have been hostile to
Catholics, they have been hostile to the members of Catholicism.
My administration will stand side by side with the American Catholics to promote the
values we all share as Christians and Americans.
God bless you, God bless the United States of America, we will make America great again.
