LOOKING FOR WAYS TO GET INVOLVED? Here are some suggestions: 

• Contact your representatives and ask them to support The BRIDGE Act (S.128/H.R. 496), which would ensure that DACA-eligible youth can continue to contribute to our communities without fear of deportation.  A letter of support and talking points from the USCCB is attached.  Please see the e-mail below, forwarded from the USCCB’s Justice for Immigrants, which can assist you in this effort.  Invite others to join you

 

• Continue to pray for those who are displaced and for those who enact policies regarding them and that the dignity of each person will be recognized and respected.
