Bishop Tyson Urges Faithful Citizenship During Election Season — In this video, Bishop Joseph Tyson of the Diocese of Yakima calls Catholics to active and responsible participation in political life. Rooted in Church teaching and the command to love our neighbor, he emphasizes the importance of forming consciences, promoting the common good, and engaging in civic duties with prayerful discernment. He encourages Catholics to reflect on key issues—such as human dignity, care for creation, and support for the poor—and to explore the resources provided by the USCCB and WSCC to guide their involvement during the election season.
