As we mourn the destruction of the Temples in Jerusalem, times of devastating loss and dislocation for the Jewish people, we call on our leaders to actively resist the federal assault on the dignity, safety and wellbeing of immigrants in our community. We reject the weaponization of Jewish fear into a tool for dismantling civil liberties and instead uphold the tenets of our faith that compel us to protect and stand with marginalized communities. To rebuild sanctuary in the Commonwealth, we ask that our Massachusetts elected officials– including Governor Healey and members of the legislature– do everything in their power to protect immigrants and build a Commonwealth that upholds the dignity and safety of all people.
Parking information: We recommend using the Macy’s overflow lot (75 Burlington Mall Road, follow signs for Macy’s). For those with mobility challenges, there are often spots open in the FAA lot (beside the ICE Office) and in the BAE Systems lot (directly across the street from the ICE office on the other side of District Ave).
