WASHINGTON—Archbishop Paul S. Coakley of Oklahoma City, chairman of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops’ (USCCB) Committee on Domestic Justice and Human Development, recognized the work of lawmakers passing COVID-19 relief legislation. He thanked members of Congress for their commitment to providing relief before the end of the year, when important aid from earlier COVID-19 legislation would expire, and encouraged lawmakers toward continued bipartisan progress towards the common good in the new year.
