President Donald Trump’s recent executive orders related to immigration disrupted the operations of several faith-based charities that aide migrants and refugees—and Vice President J.D. Vance’s comments on CBS News’ Face the Nation further drove a wedge between those groups and the new administration. Michael Reneau is joined by Mark Seitz, Bishop of El Paso and chairman of the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops’ Committee on Migration, and Matthew Soerens, vice president of advocacy and policy at the Christian humanitarian organization World Relief, for discussions about how their respective groups operate and how they’re preparing for what’s next.

Show Notes:

—Michael Warren on the clash between J.D. Vance and the Catholic Church

—Michael Reneau on Evangelicals and their outlook on immigration reform
