About this sermon
Nearly 2 dozen lawmakers on Capitol Hill are demanding answers following the FBI's recent arrest of a Catholic pro-life leader. In the letter released earlier this week, Republican Steve Daines called the FBI's treatment of Mark Houck "chilling." He also accused agents of using excessive force by arresting the father of 7 in front of his family. Houck is charged with violating the FACE Act. If convicted, he faces 11 years in prison. An attorney with the Thomas More Society who is representing Mark Houck in this case, Peter Breen, joins to give us the latest update on the case and where things stand right now. Breen explains what the FACE Act is and why Houck is being charged with violating it. He discusses how the FBI ended up getting involved. Breen fills us in on what he thinks about the lawmakers that wrote the Department of Justice and how this is being perceived. The attorney tells us where people can get more information if they would like to help. EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
