The Episcopal Church rejected a request from the Trump administration to help resettle 59 South African refugees, leading to its decision to end a 40-year partnership with the U.S. government.
- The church’s presiding bishop, Sean Rowe, cited their commitment to racial justice and historic ties with South Africa’s Anglican Church.
- President Trump previously signed an executive order suspending the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program.
- The government classified white Afrikaners from South Africa as refugees needing resettlement.
Rowe announced plans to conclude refugee resettlement agreements by the end of the fiscal year.
