Representing millions of Americans, the religious groups argued that Donald Trump’s orders rescinding protections from raids in schools and religious institutions would force them “to violate their religious duty to serve and protect their immigrant neighbors.” This comes on the heels of another lawsuit last week by five Quaker congregations on similar grounds.

This latest suit has been brought by a coalition of Jewish and Christian congregations, who according to their lawyer “have come together to file this suit because their scripture, teaching, and traditions offer irrefutable unanimity on their religious obligation to embrace and serve the refugees, asylum seekers, and immigrants in their midst without regard to documentation or legal status.”
