The most woke pope is at it again.
On Monday, Pope Francis gave priests official authority to forgive women who had an abortion. Only bishops had this right before today.
CNN is reporting that he announced the news in an apostolic letter. The change comes as part of a continued "Year of Mercy" act.
"I henceforth grant to all priests, in virtue of their ministry, the faculty to absolve those who have committed the sin of procured abortion," he stated in the letter.
But pro-choicers, don't get up for a standing ovation just yet.
