Revision as of 22:46, 20 January 2017

Catholics in Alliance for the Common Good (CACG) is a non-partisan, Roman Catholic, non-profit 501(c)(3) organization in the United States, which according to its website aims to promote "the fullness of the Catholic social tradition in the public square". The organization was founded in 2005 by Alexia Kelley and Tom Perriello.

Controversy

In leaked emails, John Podesta and Sandy Newman discuss how the Catholics in Alliance for the Common Good and Catholics United were said to be conceived for the aim of "plant seeds of the revolution," "a Catholic Spring," referring to the "Arab Spring", inside the Church.

Newman, the president and founder of the Voices for Progress, wrote in an email to Podesta that: "I have not thought at all about how one would 'plant the seeds of the revolution,' or who would plant them." Podesta agreed that this was necessary to do as Newman suggested and wrote back to note that they had created groups like Catholics in Alliance for the Common Good and Catholics United to push for a more progressive approach to the faith, change would "have to be bottom up."

Robert P. George contends that "these groups are political operations constructed to masquerade as organizations devoted to the Catholic faith".
