If Opposing Catholic Bishops Is Anti-Religion...

What about their appeal to Congress to extend unemployment benefits?

As Pope John Paul II said in his encyclical On Human Work:

The obligation to provide unemployment benefits, that is to say, the duty to make suitable
grants indispensable for the subsistence of unemployed workers and their families, is a
duty springing from the fundamental principle of the moral order in this sphere, namely
the principle of the common use of goods or, to put it in another and still simpler way, the
right to life and subsistence (No. 18)
