Decisions devastate

“This decision will devastate refugee communities, lead to family separation for refugee families and leave refugees, former refugees and United States citizens without supportive services. It will devastate congregations that will not be able to live out their calling to welcome the stranger. It will devastate businesses that rely on the workforce and contributions of refugees.

“We hope that Governor Abbott will heed the call of Texan communities and reverse this harmful decision. As parties to the lawsuit challenging the executive order over all, we also hope that the court will block its implementation, so that Governor Abbott’s faulty decision cannot harm refugees and the communities that welcome them in Texas.”
