Pope Leo Orders US Bishops to Confront Trump’s Immigration Policies
Pope Leo XIV has urged U.S. bishops to take a stronger stance against the Trump administration’s immigration policies, a direct intervention in U.S. domestic politics. The Pope, visibly moved by letters from immigrants, expressed his concern and desire for the U.S. Bishops’ Conference to speak out. This move signifies a shift in tone, with Leo becoming more critical of Trump’s agenda, particularly concerning immigration. The Pope has also criticized the administration’s handling of immigration policies, sparking backlash from some U.S. Catholics and White House officials.
