Last week, Boston received a letter from AG Bondi threatening to prosecute officials and withhold funds unless we cooperate with carrying out mass deportations. The US Attorney General asked for a response by today, so here it is: stop attacking our cities to hide your administration’s failures.

We will not yield.

This morning, I signed an Executive Order seeking greater transparency from ICE in response to secret police tactics we have seen. The City of Boston will regularly submit FOIA requests to DHS on federal immigration enforcement activity, to find out who they are detaining and arresting, and why.

To Boston’s Cabo Verdean community: we stand with you during this difficult time and are holding you in our thoughts.

Boston is a home for everyone. That means making sure that all of our families and residents have the tools, support, and resources they need to be successful at every step of their recovery journey. Learn more about our work to address substance use disorder and find help at boston.gov/recovery.

Hoy, por decisión unánime, La Corte Suprema de Justicia de Massachusetts dio vía libre a la ciudad de Boston para continuar la construcción de White Stadium.

The Supreme Judicial Court ruled unanimously that the City’s investments in White Stadium can move forward without any further delay. Join us tomorrow at 11am at the William J. Devine Golf Course at Franklin Park, 1 Circuit Dr in Dorchester to celebrate this landmark investment in our future.

ICE surge operations threaten public safety, intimidate families, and hurt our economy. That’s why I’m asking parking garage and lot owners to stand with us and reject any ICE proposal targeting our communities. Boston is strongest when everyone feels safe.

Boston has earned a 4-star Certified Welcoming designation from Welcoming America! I’m so proud of the work that our Office of Immigrant Advancement and our neighborhood and cultural partners do to expand civic engagement, support our communities, and make Boston a city where everyone belongs.
