The training also marks a new place for the countys raging debate on illegal immigration. It has moved from the streets and day laborer centers to Catholic churches, where religious leaders say U.S. policies on deportation are “immoral” and they are working to help undocumented families stay together. Auxiliary Bishop Jaime Soto of Orange County said this week that hed like to see “reasonable solutions” to the tense standoff.”
