In a bold move, 27 Christian and Jewish groups, representing millions of Americans, are taking a stand against immigration arrests in houses of worship. The coalition, which includes the Episcopal Church, Union for Reform Judaism, Mennonites, and Unitarian Universalists, is suing to protect the sanctity of religious spaces. With the Trump administration's stance on immigration, these groups are fighting for the rights of immigrants and the integrity of their places of worship, highlighting the importance of immigration reform and religious freedom. Key issues include immigration policy, religious rights, and social justice.
