“CatholicVote has found that only about 25% of the cases have had an arrest made in connection to the attack. The Biden administration has thus far refused to act to protect Catholic churches and stop these acts of domestic terrorism.”
CatholicVote revealed over the weekend that at least 275 Catholic churches had been attacked since May 2020. The attacks grew in May 2022 when someone leaked the SCOTUS opinion overturning Roe v. Wade.
The attacks on Catholic churches have been widespread across the country, affecting 42 states plus DC. The states with the most attacks are California (39), New York (28), Pennsylvania (19), Texas (15), Colorado (14), New Jersey (14), Massachusetts (12), Florida (11), Washington (11), and Oregon (10). Hotspots with large clusters of attacks include New York City (25) and the metro areas of Denver (13); Los Angeles (13); Washington, D.C. (10); Boston (10); Portland, Oregon (9); San Francisco/Bay Area (8); Seattle (7); Chicago (6); and Houston (5). Some of the churches have been attacked multiple times.

These attacks are in the U.S. I’d go into the attacks across the world, but I’d need a novel.
