Nancy Pelosi Hopes Pope Leo Will Speak Against Deportations

‘I certainly hope so’
By Grabien Staff

EXCERPT:

JANSING: “This new pope is said to be acutely aware of conditions forcing migration of the vulnerabilities of migrants. Do you think that at this moment, when so many people are looking to him, he could be impactful as a moral and ethical voice on that issue that we're dealing with when so many people are being mass deported or fear it?”
PELOSI: “Well, I certainly hope so. And I -- from his comments previous to being elected the pope, he has made clear what his values and his view of all of that is. And the -- it is important -- it is really important for us to listen to the words, both of our elected officials, when they say what they say about ranking people and their importance and our religious leaders. Now, let me just say one thing more about his holiness. He is -- you know, he's from the Augustinian Order, which he headed and all the rest. So St. Augustine is special to him.”
