Pope Francis Addresses Congress

Pope Francis stood before a bitterly divided U.S. Congress on Thursday and reminded lawmakers of that most golden of rules, “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.”

Pope Francis, a son of immigrants making history’s first papal address to the U.S. Congress, Thursday implored America’s leaders to accept immigrants as their own children, putting aside political differences to embrace those who “travel north in search of a better life.”
