CWN Editor's Note: “What President Biden has done is unconscionable when you think of the fact that he’s deported over 28,000 Haitians back to Haiti in the last three years, at a time when Haiti has been in a political, social, and economic freefall,” said Archbishop Thomas Wenski of Miami. “If a house is on fire, you don’t force people to run back into the burning house.”

President Biden and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis “are speaking about them [Haitian refugees] as if they were an invasive species, [when] they’re human beings,” the prelate added.
