Catholic Charities defends mission to serve at Supreme Court
|
|
|
Members of Catholic Charities Bureau of the Diocese of Superior were at the Supreme Court Monday asking the Court to confirm that its care for the poor, the elderly, and the disabled is part of its religious mission. In Catholic Charities Bureau v. Wisconsin Labor & Industry Review Commission, the Wisconsin Supreme Court ruled last year that Catholic Charities’ ministry to the poor and needy was not “typical” religious activity. This meant that Catholic Charities could not join the Wisconsin Catholic Church’s unemployment compensation program but was stuck paying into the state’s less efficient and more costly plan (Watch this video to learn more). Represented by Becket, Catholic Charities asked the Justices to protect its freedom to join the Church program.
Stay tuned for our next Supreme Court case on April 22nd, Mahmoud v. Taylor!
