Catholic Bishops Respond Gov. Perry's Plan To Send 1,000 Guard Troops To The Border | KERA News

Catholic Bishops Respond Gov. Perry's Plan To Send 1,000 Guard Troops To The Border | KERA News: "In North Texas, the two catholic bishops had questions for the Governor. Speaking to reporters at the Diocese of Dallas, Bishop Kevin J. Farrell says immigrant children who have crossed into the US from Central America are refugees.

“The primary factor that drives these young people,” Farrell said. “The one thing that comes out all of the time is that they are running away from the tremendous violence, drug wars that go on in their own places.”

Farrell says it’s not a political issue, it’s a humanitarian issue.  "
