WE ARE A CHURCH of Jesus Christ not a church of the Democrats, the Republicans, &tc., nor of the United States of America. OUR FAITH compels us to act in solidarity with our immigrant communities to promote just policies and practices in the face of evolving enforcement-only practices that have moved from raids to massive detention and deportation. The efforts to build bigger walls on the Southern border in an attempt to prevent further in-migration to the United States does not address the basic, underlying urgency for Comprehensive Immigration Reform. Such a reform, consistent with our teachings and experience, would yield the reuniting of families, the prospects for legalization and fairly compensated work and due process for those who seek a stable and secure future in our NATION of immigrants.
