    • I know even the new 1983 code says anyone who gets an abortion is automatically excommunicated, but what about for those who merely support it, like being a democrat? Was there a clear excommunication for that?

    • this is in the 1983 Code as well:

    "Canon 915, one of the canons in the 1983 Code of Canon Law of the Latin Church of the Catholic Church, forbids the administration of Holy Communion to those upon whom the penalty of excommunication or interdict has been imposed or declared or who obstinately persist in manifest grave sin: Those who have been excommunicated or interdicted after the imposition or declaration of the penalty and others obstinately persevering in manifest grave sin are not to be admitted to holy communion."

    You could very well say that people who (publicly ) support and promote abortion are excommunicated Latae Sententiae if they persist in their beliefs and actions... I don't know what the 1917 Code says about it.
