American Catholic Church Leaders Criticize White House Border Policies
In a uncommon public statement, the national Catholic bishops organization has delivered a sharp criticism of President Donald Trump's immigration policies.
Special Message Expresses Significant Apprehension
Religious authorities stated being concerned by potential violations of the sanctity of houses of worship and the special nature of hospitals and schools.
We recognize that nations have a responsibility to regulate their borders and establish a just and orderly immigration system for the sake of the common good.
Atmosphere of Anxiety
In their message, the religious figures portrayed what they labeled "a environment of apprehension around questions of profiling" and border control measures.
They revealed being saddened by the ongoing debate and vilification of migrants, while opposing what they described as "the blanket expulsion of people."
Additional Concerns
The bishops also raised significant concerns about:
- Situations in immigration detention centers
- Arbitrary removal of authorized standing for various foreign nationals
- Insufficiency in comprehensive immigration system improvements
Administrative Shifts
The White House has advanced an aggressive immigration agenda since assuming power, including eliminating policies that restricted immigration apprehensions near designated sites such as religious institutions, medical facilities and educational centers.
International Context
The statement mirrors similar critiques made by Pope Leo, who has called for "deep reflection about the way migrants are being treated in the US under the current administration."
Extended Ramifications
This represents the first special message of its nature in more than ten years, highlighting the gravity of the church leaders' worries about present border measures.
