CWN Editor's Note: The president of the US Conference of Catholic Bishops (USCCB) has indicated that the bishops are open to conversations with Trump administration officials on immigration policy.
“We are willing to dialogue,” Archbishop Timothy Broglio told the Italian TV2000 interviewer. He said that the USCCB leadership has asked for an opportunity to speak with President Trump or Vice President Vance—“not in the media, but face to face.”
Archbishop Broglio was responding to Vance’s criticism of the US bishops’ position, saying that the vice president’s charge that the bishops are “worried about their bottom line” is “false.” He said the bishops are choosing to respond carefully, “without getting into the substances of speeches, but telling the truth.”
