OMI JPIC Statements on the Environment
The Oblate JPIC Office works in coalition with other faith-based groups to highlight the perspective of the poor and marginalized in public policy debates. The congregation is deeply concerned about the impacts of environmental degradation on God’s creation, human and non-human.
We sign onto letters periodically to Congress and other policymakers. A record of the positions we support is available here:
- Faith Letter on Climate Change Sent to Senate (May 19, 2008)
- Oblate JPIC Office Opposes US/Mexico Border Wall (October 15, 2007)
- End to U.S. Oil Aid Supported by Oblate JPIC Office (June 5, 2007)
