Massachusetts lawmakers agree on immigration bill

Massachusetts lawmakers have reached an agreement on the “PROTECT Act,” which aims to strengthen protections for immigrants in sensitive locations like courthouses and schools. The legislation seeks to prohibit federal immigration officers from making arrests in these locations and builds on a 2017 court ruling that prevents local law enforcement from detaining individuals solely for civil immigration violations. The bill also grants victims of unconstitutional actions by federal agents the right to sue in state court, with the goal of making Massachusetts’ immigrant protections among the strongest in the nation.
