National Advocacy Group Backs Bridgeport Diocese

A national advocacy group is calling for the removal of the head of Connecticut’s Ethics Office.

This is in regard to the motion made by that office to have the Roman Catholic Diocese of Bridgeport file as a lobbyist group.

The Group, “In God We Trust,” is urging Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal to dismiss Carol Carson, the Ethics Office Director… calling the office “out of control.”

The Ethics Office agreed to drop its investigation of the church after the Attorney General warned that the state would likely lose the lawsuit filed by the Diocese against it.

The national political advocacy group has over 70 thousand supporters of various faiths.
