On July 21, President Trump issued a Presidential Memorandum to the U.S. Secretary of Commerce ordering that undocumented people counted in the 2020 Census be excluded from consideration when determining the number of U.S. Representatives each state is allotted in the U.S. House of Representatives. Archbishop Paul S. Coakley of Oklahoma City, Chairman of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops’ (USCCB) Committee on Domestic Justice and Human Development and Bishop Mario E. Dorsonville, auxiliary bishop of Washington and chairman of the USCCB’s Committee on Migration issued the following statement:
“As we have stated before, we urge all people to be counted and fully included in the Census. Counting the undocumented in the Census and then denying them and the states in which they reside their rightful representation in Congress is counter to the Constitution and a grave injustice. Furthermore, such a policy makes people feel invisible and not valued as human beings.”
“This action is simply wrong and divisive. We follow the lead of Pope Francis, who has noted that in the face of ‘profound and epochal changes’ that the present moment offers ‘a precious opportunity to guide and govern the processes now under way, and to build inclusive societies based on respect for human dignity, tolerance, compassion and mercy.’ We urge the President to rescind this Memorandum and instead, to undertake efforts to protect and heal our nation and all who are living in our country.”
U.S. Bishops Urge President to Rescind Divisive Memorandum Excluding Undocumented from Inclusion in Apportionment of U.S. House of Representative Seats
U$ Bi$hops make lot$ of money off “immigrant$.”
Way to render unto Caesar bishops
And today’s “catholic” charade (er, church) dissembles on. Pelosi, Kennedy, (I, II, III, IV, V, VI, VII, ...), etc.
Illegal immigration is AGAINST the law. At least that last time I looked. Byedone will fix that.
Cha ching
They mean “count citizens of other countries”.
Maybe China has the right idea when they put limits on the catholic church.
It sure doesn’t have this country’s best interest at heart. They are the most open border organization around and they’re getting rich from it.
Devil’s handmaidens. Time of accountability on the horizon for the frauds. SJW are heretics.
Traitorous idiots.
Go snap a mackerel, mackerel snapper.
“Rightful representation ... ? Paging Señor Montoya, Señor Inigo Montoya, please pick up the courtesy green phone.
Lay U.S. catholics urge President Trump to Rescind Citizenships of U.S. Bishops.
This Satan’s church now. It is nothing but pure evil.
The Commie Boys in Dresses can put a sock in it.
They are fine with infanticide though.
Just ask Dolan in NY
Perhaps they should read the Constitution instead of Saul Alinsky.
Does Pope Frankie support protestants setting the parameters of Catholic doctrine?
The USCCB worships Mammon and seek to protect the billions they receive from the government through Catholic Charities.
A political hack with a mitre is still a political hack.
