As part of a nationwide week of action, interfaith leaders in our region will join together at the Archdiocese of Philadelphia to call upon Congress to reject an enforcement-only approach to immigration reform and enact comprehensive legislation that provides a path to citizenship for undocumented immigrants.

Speakers include: Cardinal Justin Rigali, Archbishop of Philadelphia; Rabbi Alan Iser, Board of Rabbis; Bishop Roy Almquist, Southeastern Pennsylvania Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America; Sheikh Mohammed Shehata, Al-Aqsa Islamic Society; Bishop Charles Bennison, Episcopal Diocese of Pennsylvania. Religious leaders in Pittsburgh will be holding a companion press conference.
