Border Patrol Arrests Two Pastors Traveling to a Billy Graham Seminar

Border Patrol agents arrested two Mexican pastors living in Texas who the government says overstayed their visas. The men were traveling to a Billy Graham Evangelistic Association leadership event when they were detained. The case has drawn attention from congregations that rely on clergy on temporary religious worker visas, a category with backlogs long enough that lawful status can lapse while a renewal sits unprocessed.
