Refugees and displaced persons are not just the concern of "progressives," but a broad concern of Americans, including Catholics.

Biden had announced earlier Friday that he would keep his predecessor’s historically low cap of 15,000 refugees for this year, triggering a backlash from Democratic lawmakers and resettlement agencies.

At first glance, a White House proposal aimed at improving infrastructure and creating jobs might not seem like a natural topic of discussion for Catholic leaders. But the American Jobs Plan has some theologians and activists hopeful.

If precedent is any indicator, whoever Biden names is likely to be a practicing Catholic who has either worked or volunteered with the Catholic Church — and who is an open supporter of the president.

While 55% of Catholic Republicans think the president’s views on abortion should disqualify him from Communion, 87% of Catholic Democrats disagree, according to a new Pew survey.

Joe Biden wants to build support among U.S. citizens so that the G.O.P. is forced to work with him.
