Utah: LDS Church issues new strongly-worded statement on immigration (more on separation of church and state???) A statement just released from The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints reaffirms the federal government's role in enforcing immigration laws, and suggests that any state legislation that only contains enforcement provisions is likely to fall short..."The history of mass expulsion or mistreatment of individuals or families is cause for concern especially where race, culture, or religion are involved. This should give pause to any policy that contemplates targeting any one group, particularly if that group comes mostly from one heritage." -LDS Church statement "Any policy that contemplates targeting any one group should give us pause," the statement says. (ILLEGAL IS NOT A RACE, IT IS NOT A RELIGION, IT IS NOT A CULTURE)
