While Cardinal Tagle seems not to have made a specific statement in favor of restricting the Traditional Latin Mass, he has spoken more generally about Catholics needing to let go of the desire to “witness to Christ in some idealized past that they long for with nostalgia.” As a progressive cardinal loyal to Francis’ magisterium and a member of the Dicastery for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments since June 1, 2022, it is probable that he supports this pontificate’s restriction of the Vetus Ordo.
