SNAP Calling For Bishop David Zubik’s Resignation

Pittsburgh Bishop David Zubik is facing calls for his resignation in the wake of a sweeping state grand jury report on child sex abuse by Roman Catholic priests. SNAP, the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests, released a statement Wednesday, saying Zubik should step down. It also said Catholics should stop donating to the Diocese of Pittsburgh until he resigns or takes proven steps that protect kids.
