The Catholic stance on immigration is quite nuanced.
The official stance of the US bishops' conference, by my understanding, is that migration is and ought to be a last resort, and that we should focus on helping other countries provide prosperous and safe environments for their citizens, rather than blindly encouraging migration. They also assert the right of a nation to secure its borders and regulate immigration.
The Church also holds that mistreating migrants is a grave injustice, hence, the outcry against mass deportations.
Yes, we should regulate immigration, but we should also treat immigrants humanely.

quoting nevent1q…keaqCatholic church leaders continue their media tour trashing President Trump:
"These policies, we see as going against some of the basic tenants of our faith, frankly, the fundamental right of every human person that need to be respected."
