Pope Francis named Cardinal Robert W. McElroy to be the new archbishop of Washington , D.C. Frida Ghitis: It was a historic and well-timed appointment.

Ghitis says the appointment goes far beyond Pope Francis ' aim of realigning the U.S. Catholic Church more closely with the goals of his papacy.

She says with Donald Trump once again in power, McElory and Trump are on a collision course when it comes to immigration, the environment and foreign policy.

Cardinal McElroy will not only be a powerful voice for justice but a leader in upending how Catholics should rethink their relationships with one another and the responsibilities of citizenship.

A recent Pew study found that there are 150 Catholic members of the 119th Congress — 83 Democrats and 67 Republicans .

In his 1989 book, “The Search for an American Public Theology ,” he wrote that the political institutions of American life were “increasingly alienated from their spiritual roots”.
