Cupich calls Obama action on immigration a 'first step' - Chicago Tribune

 

Cupich, who met privately with the president Tuesday in Chicago, said the Archdiocesan Office of Immigrant Affairs and Immigration Education, the first and only office of its kind in the American Catholic Church, will prepare parishioners to assist immigrants in surrounding communities to take full advantage of Obama's action.

"This is a time for momentary celebration, a time to give thanks for a first step toward immigration reform for all of those who are being granted this relief," Cupich said in a statement. "It is also a time to mobilize our communities to assist in helping those affected by the President's actions to realize the full benefit of what is being offered."
