On "EWTN News Nightly" tonight: A dozen Republican governors and more than 200 GOP members of Congress are lending support to a Mississippi pro-life law, that would ban abortion after 15 weeks. A number of amicus briefs have been submitted in the case, including one from the pro-life Charlotte Lozier Institute that says 47 out of 50 European nations limit abortion at or before 15 weeks. The co-author of that brief and president at the Charlotte Lozier Institute, Chuck Donovan, joins to talk more about the case. And a recent article on Catholic Answers examines the historical evidence that Christ existed. Senior Apologist at Catholic Answers, Tim Staples, joins to take us through the evidence for the existence of Jesus Christ. The world watched in shock as Notre Dame Cathedral in Paris burned in 2019. However, a project at the Catholic University of America hopes to rebuild part of its history. Finally this evening, a 9 day novena to Blessed Solanus Casey, who is on the path to sainthood, began last week in Detroit. The prayers end today, on his feast day. Vice-Postulator for the Canonization Cause of Blessed Solanus Casey, Father Edward Foley, joins to tell us about the novena and about Blessed Solanus Casey.
