The imminent threat of mass deportations by the incoming administration raises grave concerns about human rights violations and harm to communities. Forcibly removing millions of undocumented individuals, many who have lived in the United States for years and have deep ties here, would tear families apart and destabilize the economy and workforce. Moreover, the militarized tactics and racial profiling suggested could breed fear and erode trust between law enforcement and immigrant communities. As Governor, you have a moral imperative to vigorously oppose any federal overreach that tramples on civil liberties and targets vulnerable populations, including the latest threats by Trump's "border czar" Tom Homan to flood states like Massachusetts with ICE agents if they do not cooperate with deportations. Refusing to cooperate with immigration authorities and enacting robust statewide protections for undocumented residents is crucial to upholding Massachusetts' values of inclusivity and human dignity. Your strong leadership is needed now more than ever to stand firm against Homan's efforts and safeguard all your constituents against draconian policies rooted in prejudice rather than prudence.
