WASHINGTON, DC – Senator Dan Coats (R-Ind.) today issued the following statement regarding Pope Francis’s joint address to Congress:
“As one of the most consequential spiritual leaders in the world, Pope Francis has dedicated his life to serving those in need. Like Billy Graham and other religious leaders, the Pope’s message transcends the borders of nations and the divide of political parties. My hope is that today Pope Francis can provide spiritual guidance and words of encouragement from Scripture that change lives and encourage souls at a time when our nation desperately needs it.”
