From America’s first days, our country and our church have benefited from the talent, hard work and faith of immigrants. Indeed, most of us descend from immigrants. Yet today, while benefiting from their sweat equity and economic sacrifices, too many Americans scapegoat immigrants and fail to provide them legal protections. Is it time to reform America’s chaotic immigration system?  Can we hold our legislators accountable for taking action?  Cardinal Mahony will speak on “Our Heritage & Our Future: Why Enacting Comprehensive Immigration Reform Is a Moral Imperative.”
