"The last pope named Leo, Leo XIII, issued the first social encyclical, Rerum novarum, in 1891. In it, he argued for the rights and duties of workers in the context of the Industrial Revolution, including the right to work, the right to a just wage, and the right to form unions.

Nobody expected the Church at that time to do that."

Eric LeCompte, executive director of Jubilee USA Network, says that he expects Leo to “follow the path that Francis set to build a more inclusive and transparent Church."

"'The selection of the name of Leo XIV is a special acknowledgment of the need to support the poor and workers,' LeCompte added."

"MAGAs responded to the new pope with fury. Right-wing influencer Laura Loomer, who is close to Trump, called Pope Leo 'another Marxist puppet in the Vatican.' Influencer Charlie Kirk suggested he was an '[o]pen borders globalist installed to counter Trump.'”
