Immigration Reform

Christian Reformed Church leaders have spoken out in favor of Comprehensive Immigration Reform (for more information about CRC-related actions on immigration, go here.) Currently, the OSJ is asking advocates to take action against the SAVE Act.  This legislation would make a reforming of the immigration system much more difficult and make it harder for people of faith to protect the human rights of those immigrating to this country.  You can take action today through our partners at Church World Service.
