Abstract
- The article discusses US Catholic bishops, who emphasize that responsible citizenship is a virtue and political participation is a moral obligation for Catholics. While voting is an integral part of this duty, Catholics are called to engage more broadly in public life, with clergy tasked with forming consciences by proclaiming the Church's moral and social teachings, and the laity called to act on those teachings to promote justice and a well-ordered society.
