Telling the truth includes acknowledging that most of the current deportation policy is a continuation of the Bush and Obama efforts to enforce the law, mainly on criminal aliens, and an adjustment at the border (which seems like the old catch and release that did not work). This is essentially Donald Trump looking busy for the optics to his supporters, even when change is minor. I don’t think much more will happen, save for a lame attempt to find a way to reissue the order blocked by the 9th Circuit.  I bet that the White House, specifically the rookie assigned to fix the order, is hoping for some action in Syria to distract everyone from the fact that there is now way to save issue.

The other thing the Church can do is build ties with the ACLU so it can issue a decent Amicus brief for any future court action. I suspect that such a prospect fills some in the USCCB with as much dread as fixing the immigration order does at the White House. With pain comes growth.
