The leader of the USCCB published a statement of congratulations to the President-elect that focuses on the importance of the nation’s democracy. Archbishop Timothy Broglio, who also heads up the Archdiocese for Military Services, said, “I congratulate [Mr. Trump] as well as the national, state, and local officials who campaigned to represent the people,” adding that, as we now “move from campaigning to governing. We rejoice in our ability to transition peacefully from one government to the next.”
