Bipartisan Immigration Reform Urged by Evangelical Leaders

On May 13, the National Association of Evangelicals (NAE) published a full-page advertisement in Roll Call, a newspaper widely read by politicians and staffers on Capitol Hill. The ad was signed by 13 senior evangelical leaders and calls for bipartisan action this year to overhaul the nation's broken immigration system.

The NAE initiative seeks to build on growing momentum among evangelicals in support of immigration reform since the passage of state legislation in Arizona last month. We hope you'll add your own support to this effort.

A Covenant for Civility
