‘Nuns on the Bus’ tour protesting GOP-backed budget hits Chicago
CHICAGO (MCT) — Tired of being pushed to the proverbial back of the bus by Roman Catholic leaders, a group of American nuns rolled into Chicago on their own set of wheels Wednesday to protest proposed federal budget cuts and spotlight the work their sisters do to help the nation’s poor.
On Wednesday, the “Nuns on the Bus” stopped at Republican U.S. Rep. Joe Walsh’s Fox Lake headquarters to scold Walsh for voting on a House budget that the sisters say threatens to hurt the very people they serve.
