Pope Francis Appoints Former Undocumented Immigrant as Bishop in the U.S.

Pope Francis has appointed a former undocumented migrant as the leader of an American diocese encompassing West Virginia.

According to the decision made by Pope Francis, the American diocese, which includes all of West Virginia, will be led by a person who was previously an undocumented migrant. Bishop Evelio Menjivar-Ayala left El Salvador during his teenage years amidst the civil war of the 1980s.

This appointment of a person born in Latin America has sparked intense discussions on social media. The Pope's choice has also been criticized by former U.S. President Donald Trump, as reported by Fox News.
