Utah religious leaders ask lawmakers to push for immigration reform

SALT LAKE CITY — Local religious leaders on Monday called for Utah lawmakers to put pressure on the federal government to pass comprehensive immigration reform.
"We believe that we need to bring undocumented immigrants out of the shadows and provide them with an earned pathway to permanent residency, to protect family unity, and ensure the just and equitable treatment of all people," said Rev. Steven A. Klemz of Zion Evangelical Lutheran Church, who organized the news conference at the Capitol.
