6. This is a meaningful statement, made by an important group of US Catholics

Thursday

I applaud their stand against Chump's anti-immigration policies. I'm not sure what took them so long, but I guess it's beside the point.

The fact is that the US Catholic churches are losing believers in droves. One of their few areas of growth in the last 40 years has been the influx of Latino Catholics who worship regularly and participate in parish activities. As Chump has instilled fear in these Latino-Americans, using the Sunday Mass to collect and arrest immigrants, it has put a pall on all US Catholic activities. It's an outrage, it's totally uncalled for, and it's very bad for American Catholics.

Thank you for speaking up, US Conference of Catholic Bishops!
