The message:

Trump's deportation machine has brought nothing but fear and chaos to our communities – so the last thing we need is local law enforcement going out of their way to assist ICE. So-called "287(g) agreements" allow for precisely that, allowing the federal government to deputize local officials as ICE agents.

Don't let local cops become tools of ICE. Tell your lawmakers to support legislation that will end 287(g) agreements in Massachusetts!

ABOUT HONORIFIC TITLES

Many public officials use "web mail forms" that this system will send your message to, so you don't have to visit their web sites to communicate with them. The systems that some of these officials use requires that the honorific field be used (Mr., Mrs., Miss, etc.).

Unfortunately, we do not have control of which honorific titles are presented as options. We must adhere to what the officials are using in order for your message to be delivered.

Alternate salutation *

Most elected officials’ constituent email systems accept a very limited set of salutations. Please select the one you would most prefer.
