TUCSON, AZ (Tucson News Now) -
Jill and I want to offer our congratulations to His
Holiness Pope Francis, and extend our prayers as he takes on this holy responsibility.
I am happy to have the chance to personally relay my well wishes, and those of
the American people, when I travel to Rome for his Inaugural Mass. The Catholic
Church plays an essential role in my life and the lives of more than a billion
people in America and around the world, not just in matters of our faith, but
in pursuit of peace and human dignity for all faiths. I look forward to our
work together in the coming years on many important issues.
