Philadelphia Yearly Meeting Lawsuit against the Department of Homeland Security.
We have heard about this recent lawsuit and agreed to send this statement of support to PYM:
“Hemel Hempstead Local Meeting of Britain Yearly Meeting of the Religious Society of Friends is in unity with the decision of Philadelphia Yearly Meeting et al. to oppose by lawsuit the sudden policy shift of the United States Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to enable federal immigration agents to enter places of worship for their immigration enforcement actions. We are aware that as of 24 February, Immigration and Customs Enforcement can’t enter the religious sites that sued, including Philadelphia Quakers, Baptists and Sikhs.”
In Friendship,
Mermie Karger, Clerk
