The Episcopal Bishop who criticized President Donald Trump during an inaugural prayer service has come under fire after it was revealed that the church's federal contracting arm, Episcopal Migration Ministry (EMM), received $53 million of taxpayer funds in 2023 for its migrant resettlement program. The Trump administration has temporarily paused these programs for evaluation.
According to records, EMM received $53 million of taxpayer funds from various government programs to resettle 3,600 individuals in 2023, the New York Post reported. Budget figures for 2024 are not yet available; however, the EMM sponsored 6,400 individuals in 2024 from across 48 countries, including Afghanistan, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Vietnam, and others.
