CWN Editor's Note: Between 2008 and 2022, the Catholic share of state population rose in only six states, according to Ryan Burge, a statistician and professor at Eastern Illinois University.
“Massachusetts is down 11%, and Connecticut is down 16%; those used to be Catholic strongholds,” he writes.
