Cardinal Robert McElroy was installed as the eighth archbishop of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Washington, D.C. on March 11, 2025, during a ceremony at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception. McElroy, who has served as the Bishop of San Diego since 2015, is recognized for his advocacy for immigrant rights. His installation has sparked protests from conservative Catholics, who have raised concerns about his leadership and alleged connections to a 'deep state' within the Church. Protesters have called for an investigation into the use of government funding by various Catholic organizations, including the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) and Catholic Charities. They have also accused McElroy and other bishops of covering up sexual abuse within the Church, with one protester stating that McElroy is part of a cabal undermining the Church's teachings.
