I am always touched by Bishops and Catholic journalists pining for that nearly extinct thing - the Pro-Life Democrat. It always reminds me of those Catholics who believe the 1950s were the Catholic Golden Age and long to return to it. When my friends and I were young and took the field to fight for the unborn, we had no party allegiance. Republicans ran New York State when abortion was legalized in 1970. We promoted Pro-Life to both parties and both were hostile. New York now has 2 Pro-Life Republican candidates for Governor, and the State has no Pro-Life Democrat candidate for any office. WE did not become Republicans for allegiance to any party, but because the Democrats are just as committed to destroying Pro-Lifers as they are to destroying the unborn

You're forgetting Rep. Cuellar from Laredo, Texas. He was the only Democrat to vote against the 2021 "Women's Health Protection Act." And right now he is being vigorously primaried by a rabidly pro-choice, out-of-state funded candidate.
