A diverse group of religious leaders, including Catholic Archbishop John Wester of Salt Lake City, the Rev. Samuel Rodriguez, and Rabbi David Saperstein are announcing Sept. 9 the start of a monthlong campaign to organize faith groups to advocate for immigration reform.

According to the press release: ‘As Election Day nears, hateful rhetoric towards immigrants has become commonplace and large-scale immigration raids are tearing immigrant families apart and terrorizing their communities. People of faith across the theological spectrum are increasingly standing up against these dehumanizing tactics and in favor of an America consistent with our best values.”
