USCCB: "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. Without such processes, immigrants face the risk of trafficking and other forms of exploitation. Safe and legal pathways serve as an antidote to such risks."
They call for reform of our immigration laws, something neither party has tried to do. The Democrats believe that illegal immigrants are above the law, so they seek not to enforce it. The GOP believes no one is above the law, so they seek to enforce the law. The parties should reform the law as the bishops call for. We should have good pathways to legal immigration, while we regulate our borders and block illegal immigration.
