Hi Michael,

From what I've heard, in the current batch of bishops, those who align themselves with Pope Francis' style of 'pastoral bishops' don't try to dominate any meetings with the entire body of U.S. bishops e.g.
USCCB meetings.  Those who are 'megaphones' for "we've always done it this way" method---often dominate discussion.  But the pastoral bishops, keep their own council, and continue directing their own diocese, priests, and people---the way that they believe that the Gospel instructs their hearts to do so.
