Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey has made it clear that her administration will not use the State Police to assist federal authorities in mass deportation efforts, emphasizing the state's commitment to resisting such actions from the incoming Trump administration.
In response to questions about potential coordination with federal deportation efforts, Healey stated, 'Absolutely not,' underscoring her dedication to protecting undocumented immigrants and upholding the rule of law against any overreach from the federal government.
Healey highlighted that the legal landscape has evolved since 2016, saying, 'The situation in the courts is very different in 2024,' which suggests that her administration would wield legal avenues to thwart deportation efforts.
Stating her commitment to utilizing every possible resource, Healey asserted, 'Every tool in the toolbox has got to be used to protect our citizens, to protect our residents, and protect our states,' firming her stance on resisting federal directives.
