Pope Leo's US Bishops Criticize Trump's Immigration Policies

Pope Leo's US Bishops Criticize Trump's Immigration Policies

Pope Leo has been appointing new bishops in the U.S. who are critical of President Trump's strict immigration policies.

Most of these bishops believe that treating immigrants fairly is an important part of being pro-life, which is a key teaching of the Catholic Church.

Some of the new bishops are immigrants themselves and have even joined protests or helped immigrants in court.

These appointments are significant because bishops usually stay in their roles for a long time, and this could influence how the Church responds to immigration issues in the future.
