Biden Speaks to Church members

| Biden Speaking to Chaldean Catholic and Assyrian Community Leaders Last Spring |
Eastern rite Catholics are not left out of the Biden campaign's robust Catholic outreach efforts. The Biden's campaign Chaldean Advisory Council has been working hard to activate, engage and turn out the Chaldean/Assyrian community in Michigan, the swing state that has the largest Chaldean Catholic community (Illinois and California also have large numbers of Chaldeans, but those states are firmly with Biden-Harris).
The Chaldean Advisory Council will mobilize voters in the community through trusted channels, recruit volunteers for weekly phone-banks, friend-banks and other GOTV (Get Out the Vote) efforts, and urge voters to vote early in this election, preferably for Biden. Led by Nathan Kalasho and Wisam Naoum, the Advisory Council also is forming a Chaldean/Assyrian Women for Biden group to reach women voters in the community.
“Joe Biden and Kamala Harris know that to win this election and flip Michigan blue, they need to mobilize a broad, diverse coalition of voters to turn out,” said Biden for President Michigan State Director Eric Hyers. “Winning in Michigan means earning the support of the Chaldean/Assyrian communities in the state.
“With the help of the Chaldean Advisory Council, we’re speaking directly to members of the community about how a Biden-Harris administration would make their lives better. And it’s resonating with voters.”
Other Eastern rite Catholic outreach is occurring through Ukrainian Americans for Biden.

JOE BIDEN accused the US President of looking down his nose at Irish Catholic and working-class people.
Biden has declared the President is racist, stating "He's the racist!", and said that Trump, who was born into the upper class, looked down his nose on people different to him.
"It’s a little bit like how this guy and his friends look down on so many people," the former Vice President said.
"They look down their nose on people like Irish Catholics, like me, who grow up in Scranton.
"They look down on people who don’t have money. They look down on people who are of a different faith. They looked down on people who are a different color.
"In fact, we’re all Americans. The only way we’re going to bring this country together is bring everybody together. There’s nothing we cannot do, if we do it together. We can take this on and we can defeat racism in America."
The Catholics Who Hate Joe Biden—And Pope Francis
Some of Trump’s most committed Catholic supporters have leveled dark charges against Biden as they battle to sway the vote in crucial swing states. And wait until you hear what they think of the pope.

The president has aligned his reelection campaign with a proudly revanchist corner of the Church, one unfamiliar to many American Catholics, even those adamantly opposed to abortion. This faction’s positions on women, gay people, Muslims, immigration, socialism, and climate change are much closer to those of pro-Trump white evangelicals than to those of liberal Catholics, whom they consider not to be Catholics at all. Far from being bothered by Trump’s scuffles with the pope—Francis has called the president’s immigration policies “not Christian,” Trump has called him “disgraceful” for saying such a thing, and so on—these ultraconservatives applaud the attacks on the leader of their Church. To them, Francis is the embodiment of abhorrent modernist, globalist, even secularist values.
The effective leader of this part of the Church, which is both superglued to certainty and whirring with conspiracy, is Carlo Maria Viganò. “So honored by Archbishop Viganò’s incredible letter to me,” Trump tweeted in early June, to little general notice. “I hope everyone, religious or not, reads it!” Later, during one of the several White House interviews he has granted to EWTN, the conservative Catholic television network, the president lauded Viganò as a “great gentleman,” who’d written “a tremendous letter of support from the Catholic Church.”....
As Pope Francis might be at pains to point out, Viganò doesn’t speak for the Church. Pope Benedict XVI appointed him as the papal nuncio, or representative, to Washington, D.C., in 2011, a post he occupied until 2016, when he entered an exceedingly active retirement, lobbing grenades at Benedict’s more liberal successor. The most sensational of these was Viganò’s 2018 call for Francis to resign ...

This is not specifically a Catholic outreach ad, but it is so good that we had to share it. Sam Elliott narrates it.
The Catholic outreach around the Biden campaign has been amazing. We have state, local and diocesan Catholics for Biden groups across the nation. We've had wonderful participation in our virtual Catholics for Biden events and great volunteers for our Catholic to Catholic phone banks. We are seeing high quality, meaningful advertisements reaching out to Catholic voters. Here is another ad. This one is by Faith2020, an independent group that is supporting the Biden - Harris ticket. In it a Pittsburgh, pro-life Catholic mother talks about why she is voting for Joe Biden. Click on below to watch.
