LDS Church statement on immigration:

I recently ran across this statement again in a publication.  I don't believe immigration should be a partisan issue.  Rather it is a human concern.  I am grateful for the perspective outlined below:

“The complex issues surrounding immigration are a matter of increasing concern and debate for all in this country.

Elected individuals have the primary responsibility to find solutions in the best interests of all whose lives will be impacted by their actions.

We repeat our appeal for careful reflection and civil discourse when addressing immigration issues. Finding a successful resolution will require the best thinking and goodwill of all across the political spectrum, the highest levels of statesmanship, and the strongest desire to do what is best for all of God’s children.”  (Issued July 2010)
