The Pews Fight Back
Last week, we told you about a new Zogby poll that revealed the differences between church leaders and the people sitting in the pews. (Watch Roy's appearance on Fox & Friends) Well, NumbersUSA Members are fighting back, and in the last three days, you've sent 129,989 faxes to Members of Congress telling them how you feel.
But on Thursday, the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops upped the ante, launching a campaign urging Congress to pass a mass amnesty bill. The campaign includes a series of websites and the sending of 1.5 million post cards to congregations hoping parishioners will sign them. So despite your tremendous response to the poll this week, the fight has just begun.
“We remain committed to moving immigration reform as soon as possible,” Bishop and chairman of the USCCB John C. Webster said. “We hope to make sure that our federal legislators are committed to that goal as well.”
As the Zogby poll pointed out, there is a huge disconnect between you and the leaders of your various denominations. The best thing you can do is explain to your clergy your concerns that a mass amnesty and high immigration numbers would have on 15 million unemployed Americans. If you haven't already done so, complete our short religion survey, and then check your Action Board for specific faxes you can send.
