A Catholic charity serving migrants is under scrutiny for potentially misusing religious freedom to avoid compliance with a legal inquiry initiated by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton. The charity, known for providing food and shelter to refugees as a Corporal Work of Mercy, faces criticism for possibly shirking its legal obligations. This situation has sparked a debate on the limits of religious freedom in the context of legal compliance, with opinions varying from viewing Paxton's actions as a legitimate inquiry to others labeling it as a petty crusade, as reported by @NRO.

Caring for the needs of refugees by offering food and shelter is indeed a Corporal Work of Mercy. But if the shelter is knowingly shirking its obligations under the law, then it doesn’t have much of a leg to stand on in this fight. My @NRO latest. https://t.co/arDesW0W7u
