Support Comprehensive Immigration Reform

A recent study shows that more than two-thirds of the American public supports a pathway to citizenship for undocumented immigrants. Another study indicates that people who attend church regularly are more supportive of a clear path to citizenship than immediate deportation of undocumented immigrants. There is a growing movement in our country, especially among people of faith, to advocate for immigrants to be treated with dignity and respect.

Are you one of them? Sign the pledge: I’m a Christian for Comprehensive Immigration Reform.

Our broken immigration system creates a grim reality. Millions of immigrants in the United States can’t “get in line” to gain legal status. Others wait decades to be reunited with loved ones – often trading participation in their children’s childhood for offering their kids a better future. No one should have to make that choice.

Peoples’ lives hang in the balance. We can’t wait any longer to fix our immigration system.

Will you advocate for a better immigration system – one that respects human dignity and the rule of law? Sign the pledge.

Right now Congress is debating next steps on immigration reform.  People of faith have an urgent and unique role to play in supporting practical and humane policies that reflect the best of our moral values. Our biblical values insist that all people are made in the image of God and that we have an undeniable responsibility to love, care for, and seek justice for the stranger in our midst.
