In historic moments, Massachusetts has been a beacon of justice, equality, and compassion. Our Commonwealth’s strong anti-discrimination laws protect every resident — regardless of race, religion, immigration status, gender identity, or disability — from harm and bias. These protections reflect our deepest moral values and our belief in the dignity of every person.

Today, those values face growing threats. Federal overreach — including rollbacks of rights, targeted enforcement, and potential deployment of federal forces — endangers the safety and freedoms of our people. When that happens, Massachusetts must stand firm to defend our residents and safeguard both our sovereignty and humanity.

Protecting Civil Rights in Massachusetts Means:

• Defending dignity: Everyone deserves to live free from fear and discrimination.

• Caring for our neighbors: We protect one another, especially the most vulnerable.

• Preserving quality of life: A fair, inclusive Commonwealth is safer and stronger for all.

Now Is the Time for Massachusetts to Lead

We have a proud legacy of moral courage and bold action. That legacy calls us to rise again.

We call on Governor Maura Healey to ensure our protections remain unshakable amid harmful and discriminatory federal actions that threaten our communities’ rights, safety, and dignity.

We urge the Governor to:

• Defend our sovereignty against any attempt to weaken state protections.

• Protect every resident from policies rooted in fear or prejudice.

• Champion fairness, dignity, and the common good.
