📣 Hey Massachusetts residents! Here's an easy action you can take this weekend to protect immigrants in our state.
There are three pending bills in our state legislature that specifically help protect immigrants and refugees from the feds. They are listed below.
Check if your state rep and senator are already listed as co-sponsors for each bill. If they aren't, please call their offices and urge them to co-sponsor. If they are already a co-sponsor, you could still call and express support for the bill, but it's less urgent.
