Two Articles on the USCCB’s Position on Immigration Reform

Immigration Reform continues to be a hot topic.  Some believe that the United States Bishops want to open our borders to everyone who wants to come and to make all illegal immigrants already in the country citizens without question.  That is not the case.  Here are two links that I received this week to articles clarifying the bishops’ position. 

From Our Sunday Visitor (May 16, 2010): Answering tough questions about immigration

From Newsweek (May 6, 2010): We need immigration reform by John C. Wester, Catholic Bishop, Salt Lake City

The articles were sent to me by Justice for Immigrants, part of the bishops’ conference.  You can check out their website at www.justiceforimmigrants.org.
