US EditionEpiscopal Church says it won't help resettle white South Africans granted refugee status in US
- On Monday, the Episcopal Church declared it would decline a federal order requiring assistance in relocating white South African refugees to the United States.
- This decision follows President Donald Trump's fast-tracking of refugee status for Afrikaners, which bypassed thousands of other refugees undergoing lengthy vetting processes.
- Presiding Bishop Sean Rowe conveyed his distress over the unequal treatment of a particular refugee group, emphasizing the church’s long-standing relationship with the Anglican Church in Southern Africa and its dedication to racial justice.
- Rowe expressed distress over the fact that a single group of refugees, chosen through an unusual process, has been given priority while numerous others have endured long periods in refugee camps or hazardous situations.
- As a result, Episcopal Migration Ministries will end its nearly four-decade partnership with the federal government that has resettled about 110,000 refugees, while other organizations remain open to assisting the Afrikaners.

Why else do you think the same party that actively fought in court to expel the Romeike Family on one ha…
