Peℓσѕι Assists in Holy Week Foot-Washing RitualTo "honor the dignity and work of immigrants," Democratic House Minority Leader Nancy Peℓσѕι [helped] Bishop Marc Andrus wash the feet of two children Thursday at Saint John the Evangelist
Episcopal Church in San Francisco.
Peℓσѕι also used the occasion to talk about passing HR15 - bipartisan immigration legislation that her office says would "reduce the deficit by nearly $1 trillion, secure our borders, unite our families, protect our workers and provide an earned pathway to citizenship."
The Democratic leader's ceremony coincides with Pope Francis' similar ceremony in Rome to mark Holy Week. As he did last year, the pope broke with the tradition of washing only priests' feet during the Mass for the Last Supper - this time, washing the feet of disabled people.
