CatholicVote Hosts Protest Against Cindy Axne

Clive, IA – CatholicVote, the leading national grassroots Catholic advocacy organization, plans

to host a protest against self-proclaimed Catholic Cindy Axne ahead of her event with

pro-choice extremist group, EMILY’s List.

“Cindy Axne may claim to be Catholic, but her actions prove she hates Catholic values,” said

Brian Burch, president of CatholicVote. “From abortion to schools, she stands in direct

opposition to everything that Catholics believe,”Burch said.

Axne’s tenure in the House has earned her a F rating on the group’s Catholic Accountability

Project Scorecard, which analyzes the voting records of Catholic members of Congress on key

issues of importance to Catholic voters.

“Anxe has failed to represent Iowans’ traditional values, and It’s time to make a change,” said

Logan Church, Campaign Director for CatholicVote “She has not only consistently voted

against our faith, but she has also refused to condemn the acts of violence against pregnancy

resource centers in her district. ” Church declared.

The protest will be held outside the building where Axne’s event with EMILY’s List is taking place

at 13375 University Avenue in Clive.

The group will be gathering at 3:45 pm and the protest will kick off right at 4pm.
