'Migrants leave behind everything but their faith' | National Catholic Reporter by MSW. MGB: I hope that the Pope watches these films on the flight over here.  There is, of course, the very real truth that those who employ workers in the shadows do so to control labor costs in terms of both safety and wage.  I hope the films highlight this.  Of course, if these folks were unionized (no more right to work laws) and the restrictions lifted all workers who come would have full dignity and only enough would come for the available work.  As to Francis saying Mass at the fence, it would be a bit more political than when the bishops of the USCCB migration committee did it - that and it would lead to such a mass of humanity that the fence would be toppled (not a bad thing), but also that people would be hurt or killed.  If Francis wants to address the Latino part of the problem, he needs to visit Mexico and Guatemala, et al. Except he does not, for he knows.  He also knows that he is not issue, he simply carries the message from He who is.
