(RNS) In restoring the White House Office of Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships on Sunday (Feb. 14), President Joe Biden sent a Valentine’s message to Catholic bishops and other faith leaders, signaling his openness to a dialogue with them on important public policy issues.
This attitude will not be popular with many in the president’s base, and it may also be a fool’s errand if the bishops remain as intransigent as they’ve shown themselves to be in the early going.
