Update: 2025-07-03
Description
Bishop Earl K. Fernandes, Bishop of Columbus, Ohio joins Bishop Brennan and Father Heanue on this episode of Big City Catholics to talk about the Religious Workforce Protection Act. He explains concern over the current U.S. rule where those of religious service are to return to their country of origin for a full year should their visa expire before they receive judgement about a green card or permanent residency. This bill will remedy this issue to ensure stability and secure conditions for religious communities by resolving legal ambiguities. Bishop Brennan discusses how foreign missionaries are vital to our diverse diocese and expresses commitment to comprehensive immigration reform.
