✣ Trump names panel of Catholic advisers

What happened? Donald Trump has assembled an advisory group of 34 Catholics.

It includes former presidential candidate Rick Santorum and Marjorie Dannenfelser, president of the Susan B Anthony List, a pro-life group.

Trump, the Republican presidential nominee, is hoping to shore up his support among churchgoing Christians. One of the 34, Joseph Cella, founder of the National Catholic Prayer Breakfast, said he was persuaded by Trump’s positions on religious liberty, abortion and economics.
