The conservative Catholic archbishop of San Francisco is banning U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi from Holy Communion.

Archbishop Salvatore Cordileone announced the action against the House Speaker, who is a life-long Catholic, after her vote in Congress to codify Roe v Wade amid the Supreme Court controversy.

Pelosi criticizes San Francisco archbishop who barred her from Communion over support for abortion rights:

"I wonder about the death penalty, which I'm opposed to. So is the church. But they take no action against people who may not share their view."

Opinion: If the Catholic Church can’t stay out of politics, it should be paying taxes
