00:00Let me make one final plea, Mr. President.
00:06Millions have put their trust in you, and as you told the nation yesterday, you have
00:11felt the providential hand of a loving God.
00:19In the name of our God, I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are
00:27scared now.
00:31There are gay, lesbian and transgender children in democratic, republican and independent
00:38families, some who fear for their lives.
00:44And the people, the people who pick our crops and clean our office buildings, who labor
00:51in poultry farms and meat packing plants, who wash the dishes after we eat in restaurants
00:56and work the night shifts in hospitals, they may not be citizens or have the proper documentation,
01:06but the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals.
01:10They pay taxes and are good neighbors.
01:14They are faithful members of our churches and mosques, synagogues, wadara and temples.
01:24I ask you to have mercy, Mr. President, on those in our communities whose children fear
01:29that their parents will be taken away, and that you help those who are fleeing war zones
01:34and persecution in their own lands to find compassion and welcome here.
01:42Our God teaches us that we are to be merciful to the stranger, for we will all want strangers
01:52in this land.
01:58May God grant us the strength and courage to honor the dignity of every human being,
02:04to speak the truth to one another in love, and walk humbly with each other and our God
02:12for the good of all people, the good of all people in this nation and the world.
02:19Amen.
