Only the pastor can instruct an EMHC to withhold Communion, unless they know the person
isn't Catholic. Otherwise, they often have no clue on whether the person has gone to Confession or not.

Well that just goes to further reinforce my aversion to EMHCs.

Archbishop Cordileone notified the Speaker of the House of his decision May 19 and released letters to the priests and the laity of the Archdiocese of San Francisco explaining the act May 20.

Catholics Respond to Nancy Pelosi Being Banned From Holy Communion
That's very good of him for several reasons:
1. To protect the priests from offering he something that she could not receive.
2. To let her clearly know of her changed status in the church.
3. Thoughtful, because she has a lot on her plate, and without the note could well forget or else not understand what her changed status is.
4. Gives her notice how that change will affect her life going forward.
5. Now there's a very good example of clergy proactively caring for the members of the Church.

Can you imagine if it were one of us who made manifest in front of our Diocese's Bishop the same stance as Pelosi? We would certainly not be allowed Communion.

You bet. We’d be told to not let the door hit us on the behind on the way out!

It is so obvious that Pelosi is never going to change on this issues or any others, I can't believe that she has the audacity to receive the Eucharist, man, it is a wonder that she isn't struck dead, what a sacrilege.

I think it’s going to be worse than struck dead in the end if she does not change her ways. As I said before, politics have taken the place of faith. It’s an idol.

Pray for her for the time she has left. And hope for conversion.

Stranger things have happened!
She should be careful not to travel on a cruise over the open ocean, though.
I imagine there are plenty of hungry whales out there.

crickets from our Cardinal Sean O’Malley.
Any cardinals or bishops who have come out in divisiveness against Cordeleone? I know Wilton Gregory said earlier he would not deny Biden the Eucharist. But any news since Cordeleone announced?

What do you think he didn't say or said?

You really don't know. Perhaps Cardinal Sean is just letting Cordileone handle his own
dioceses?

Actually, the USCCB did
After the Cordeleone announcement? Where?

Before the Cordeleone announcement there was a minority that blocked any action by the USCCB itself. But I would like to know where the USCCB shot Coredleone down.
