Chicago's Archbishop weighs in on immigration enforcement
About this episode
The Catholic Church is wading into a deeply partisan issue. The Archbishop of Chicago weighs in.
This fall, the Trump administration launched Operation Midway Blitz – an aggressive immigration crackdown campaign in Chicago.
It was met with outcry from many communities around the city including the Catholic Church, and that sentiment goes all the way to the very top of the Church with Pope Leo calling on the government to treat undocumented people humanely.
