USA - Protection of migrant children from Central America
(Oct-2014)
 The Jesuit Conference President and other religious leaders call on President Obama to protect children migrating from Central America. The one-sentence letter reads, "While we celebrate the potential of executive action to alleviate the suffering caused by our nation's broken immigration system - particularly in light of political inaction in Congress - it must not come at the cost of due process and access to humanitarian protection for children and families fleeing violence in Central America".
