PROVIDENCE, R.I. (WPRI) - Rhode Island U.S. Representative Patrick Kennedy will meet face to face with Diocese of Providence Bishop Thomas Tobin.

The two confirmed they will meet on November 12th to talk about President Obama's health care reform plan.

Last month, Kennedy was highly critical of the Catholic Church for opposing the bill.

The church says it could lead to taxpayer financed abortions.
