On July 8 2025 Tennessee lawmakers advanced a bill cracking down on religious organizations providing aid to migrants. The measure comes as federal deportation efforts intensify under renewed ICE priorities. The cartoon depicts a legislature figure clutching the proposed restrictions while wearing a WWJD badge and pondering aloud who Jesus would deport. Sweat and a slipping halo underscore the tension between policy and faith-based sanctuary traditions. The visual ties directly to ongoing debates in statehouses over the role of churches in immigration enforcement.
