A formal complaint has been filed with the US Department of Justice (DOJ) against Catholic Charities, accusing the organization of violating the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (RICO) through alleged involvement in facilitating illegal immigration.
The complaint, first brought to public attention by journalist Jack Posobiec via a post on X, claims that Catholic Charities, a prominent Catholic nonprofit and recipient of substantial federal funding, has engaged in activities that amount to trafficking undocumented immigrants across US borders.
The filing invokes RICO, a statute traditionally used to combat organized crime, alleging a pattern of racketeering activity tied to the organization’s immigration-related operations. https://gatewayhispanic.com/2025/03/catholic-charities-reported-to-the-doj/
