ST. LOUIS U.S. Sen. Claire McCaskill was uninvited from speaking at her daughter’s Catholic high school commencement because of her positions on abortion and embryonic stem-cell research.
Students at St. Joseph’s Academy in the St. Louis suburb of Frontenac wanted McCaskill to speak at their graduation this month, McCaskill spokeswoman Adrianne Marsh said Tuesday.
But the offer was rescinded last week. The senator was told by the school that the decision came from St. Louis Archbishop Raymond Burke, Marsh said.
