Presiding Bishop, President of House of Deputies on DACA: We stand with the Dreamers and will do all that we can to support them.

We believe that these young people are children of God and deserve a chance to live full lives, free from fear of deportation to countries that they may have never known and whose languages they may not speak. As people of faith, our obligation is first to the most vulnerable, especially to children. In this moment, we are called by God to protect Dreamers from being punished for something they had no agency in doing. Read the full statement Comments are closed.
