“As a Baptist Minister and president of an organization dedicated to religious freedom, I welcome this lawsuit and urge the Federal Judicial Power to quickly block Trump’s attack on places of worship,” he said. “No one should fear for their safety and that of their families when they are going to worship.”

He added that the Trump administration decision, as part of the strategy for The deportation plan“It is an intrusive overrimitation of the government” in the sanctuaries.

“It is not only immigrants who run the risk of losing their rights of religious freedom under the Trump administration, but also Christians and people of faith throughout the United States who are called to take care of immigrants,” he says. “The Trump administration has dangerously made lay pastors and leaders at risk of being processed simply by fulfilling the obligation of their churches, according to Matthew 25, to welcome immigrants.”
