Urge Congress to Pass the Afghan Adjustment ActThe U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, together with Catholic Charities partners and other community-based organizations, have been hard at work during the past year helping Afghan nationals – many of whom served alongside U.S. service members – resettle in communities across the United States. Please take action to urge Congress to pass the Afghan Adjustment Act, to provide these resettled families with eligibility to apply for lawful permanent residence and the safety and security it would afford them.

In prayer and in public, your voices are urgently needed to bring Gospel values to bear on vital decisions being made by those who represent you. ~~~ The Virginia Catholic Conference is the public policy agency representing Virginia’s Catholic bishops and their two dioceses.
