Archbishop of Washington, D.C., Cardinal Robert McElroy said Sunday that former President Biden’s open border policy<\/a> was “out of control,” but also took issue with President Donald Trump’s immigration policy.<\/p>\n

“I feel it got to a point where it was getting out of control,” he told CBS’ “60 Minutes,” as host Norah O’Donnell confirmed he meant under Biden’s presidency.<\/p>\n

O’Donnell asked, “You believe in strong borders<\/a>?”<\/p>\n

“Yes,” he said. O’Donnell pressed McElroy on what was wrong with Trump’s current policy if he believed in secure borders.<\/p>\n

“This is a roundup of people throughout the country. People who have been living good, strong lives, been here a long time, raised their children here, many of their children born here, and are citizens. That’s what our objection is,” he said.<\/p>\n

The White House and Biden’s office did not immediately return Fox News Digital’s requests for comment.<\/p>\n

McElroy served as the bishop of San Diego before becoming the Archbishop of D.C. Pope Francis tapped<\/a> McElroy to become the archbishop of Washington, D.C., in January 2025.<\/p>\n

McElroy previously described Trump’s immigration policy as an “assault.”<\/p>\n

“We are witnessing a comprehensive governmental assault designed to produce fear and terror among millions of men and women,” he said in September 2025, according to The Washington Post<\/a>.<\/p>\n

O’Donnell noted that Trump ran on mass deportations<\/a> throughout his campaign.<\/p>\n

“And yet President Trump won the Catholic vote over Kamala Harris<\/a> handily, 55 to 43%. He promised to secure the border. He talked about deportation. And a majority of Catholics voted for the policy,” O’Donnell told the group of American cardinals she interviewed for the segment.<\/p>\n

O’Donnell spoke to McElory, as well as Cardinal Blase Cupich, the archbishop of Chicago<\/a>, and Cardinal Joseph Tobin of Newark, New Jersey.<\/p>\n

“I would like to know what Catholics feel about this indiscriminate mass deportation. I think that it’s very clear the American people are saying, ‘We really didn’t vote for this,'” Cupich told O’Donnell.<\/p>\n

She also asked the group about what they would say to churchgoers who don’t want their priests weighing in on politics.<\/p>\n

“I say fine. I want to preach the gospel. God wants us to promote peace in the world \u2014 because his desire is that we be one human family,” Cupich responded.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
