Pope Francis Critiques US Election Candidates
News summary

Pope Francis has criticized both U.S. presidential candidates, Donald Trump and Kamala Harris, for their 'anti-life policies' regarding abortion and migration, urging American Catholics to vote for the 'lesser evil' in the upcoming election. He stated that both candidates promote actions that are 'against life'—Trump's stance on migration and Harris's support for abortion rights. While Francis did not name the candidates directly, he emphasized that both issues are of significant concern to the Catholic Church, describing abortion as equivalent to killing a human being and migration as a Biblical right. He has long advocated for the rights of migrants and denounced policies that exclude them. Francis reiterated the moral responsibility of voters to consider their conscience when making electoral decisions. This marks another instance of the Pope engaging with U.S. politics, continuing his focus on key moral issues.
