Vance spars with Catholic bishops: Vice President J.D. Vance, who is Catholic, said in a Sunday interview with CBS that the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) has "not been a good partner in common-sense immigration enforcement."
"I think that the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops needs to actually look in the mirror a little bit and recognize that when they receive over $100 million to help resettle illegal immigrants, are they worried about humanitarian concerns?" Vance said. "Or are they actually worried about their bottom line?"
This follows several statements by the USCCB that condemn President Donald Trump's immigration-related executive orders, including the Department of Homeland Security guidance—instructing immigration enforcement to avoid "sensitive places" such as churches and schools—that was recently scrapped.
