An Act to protect the civil rights and safety of all Massachusetts residents

Summary

The bill adds new rules that prevent Massachusetts law‑enforcement officers from asking about immigration status unless required by law, and requires written, informed consent before any immigration‑related interview. It also bars state, local and correctional agencies from performing immigration‑officer duties and nullifies existing agreements that conflict with this rule. The goal is to protect civil rights and improve community trust.
