Just after being released from the hospital, where he nearly died, the Pope issues a pastoral letter to the American Bishops.  He urged them to focus upon Christian principles, and to support immigrants as they face the actions of the Trump administration (which they did not identify by name).  He said that a policy not rooted in proper values will start badly and end badly. 

This is a short letter, just 2 and 1/2 pages long.  I offer some explanatory comments along the way. 

I hope you find this of interest.  As the pope says, the issue of immigrants and refugees is a historic point in history.
