On Tuesday afternoon mothers, children, clergymen, and dozens of others sympathetic to the cause of undocumented immigrants stood on the grand staircase inside the State House imploring lawmakers to pass stricter guidelines limiting how local law enforcement can cooperate with federal immigration agents, specifically the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency.
Tuesday’s demonstration from groups like the Massachusetts Immigrant and Refugee Advocacy Coalition and the Massachusetts Communities Action Network are the latest in a string of activism surrounding the Safe Communities Act.
