Katy Pastor Jorge Cardenas Takes a Stand for the forgotten Undocumented Workers In a passionate announcement to Congress Letter Pastor Jorge Cardenas of Church on the Rock in Katy, Texas, sheds light on the injustices faced by the undocumented immigrant community residing in our nation for decades. Addressing the plight of the forgotten people, Pastor Cardenas emphasizes their invaluable contributions to our communities, from harvesting the food on our tables to building our homes and businesses.
Despite their substantial role in society, these individuals are denied basic privileges such as driver's licenses, health insurance, and participation in social security retirement plans. Pastor Cardenas calls attention to the daily threat of deportation and separation from families that haunts these forgotten people.
Highlighting a recent disparity in treatment, Pastor Cardenas acknowledges the Biden administration's Humanitarian or Significant Public Benefit Parole for Individuals Outside the United States, a program offering quick work permits and immediate benefits to new immigrants. While supportive of this initiative, Pastor Cardenas urges for equal compassion towards those who have been waiting in line for a chance at legal residency.
To rally support and raise awareness, Pastor Cardenas invites the community to join an event on February 10th from 10:00 to 10:30 A.M. at Church on the Rock Katy. Attendees are encouraged to bring signs expressing support for the 'Forgotten People.' No cost is involved; only your time and presence are requested. Organizations are invited to join and have their names included in the collective call for justice.
For those willing to stand against this injustice and be part of the solution, please RSVP at www.rocakaty.com. Pastor Cardenas appreciates your attention and anticipates a united response to bring visibility to the struggles of the undocumented workers in our midst.
