- Verify system to authenticate the legal status of employees;
- Cooperation between state and local law enforcement and Federal
immigration authorities, especially ICE, in identifying apprehending and
removing criminal aliens
- A “No” vote in June 2022 of the proposal to override Governor Baker’s
veto of the state law authorizing driver’s licenses for persons who are in the
country in violation of our laws;


Opposition to:


- Sanctuary policies that shield criminal aliens from deportation
- Proposals to give extra-constitutional rights to persons in detention for
crimes with respect to communication with ICE

housing etc.) for persons without lawful immigration status

MCIR never endorses candidates. We recognize that voters decide based on many
issues as well judgments about the character and leadership of each candidate.

​

What we offer is a way for voters to know which candidates share their goals and
values.

MCIR is an independent, non-profit, nonpartisan organization that seeks to educate the public and affect public policy on the federal, state, and local levels. MCIR is dedicated to 1) strict enforcement of present immigration laws, 2) reductions in legal immigration, and 3) reform of policies toward refugees and asylum.

 

​MCIR is the leading group in Massachusetts that is working to regain control over our borders and adopt policies that favor American workers. For example, during past hearings on "sanctuary" policies, and on driver’s licenses for illegal aliens, MCIR took the lead in organizing testimony in opposition.

 

In addition, MCIR has extensive knowledge in immigration-related issues and we also have access to a network of experts who can provide substantive backup and/or speakers. We work with like-minded national organizations, such as the Federation for Ameri-can Immigration Reform, Numbers USA, and the Center for Immigration Studies, as well as with independent experts.​
