Faith leaders across the U.S. are optimistic about a bipartisan bill introduced in Congress to address a longstanding immigration issue affecting their community.
The bill, presented in both the U.S. Senate and House, targets the backlog created by recent government changes in processing green cards for abused minors and religious workers.
The proposed legislation is seen as a crucial step forward, providing hope for faith leaders and their congregations facing uncertainty regarding their stay in the country.
If passed, the bill would offer relief to thousands of religious workers, including pastors, nuns, imams, and others hailing from various countries.
Overall, the bill is considered a focused initiative that could have a positive impact despite the broader complexities of the immigration debate.
