Massachusetts City Defies ICE, Warns of Agents at Bus Stops
Worcester Public Schools (WPS) has instructed bus drivers to keep students on board if immigration agents are present at bus stops, following a Trump administration announcement permitting federal agencies to make arrests at schools and other locations. WPS affirms it will not cooperate with ICE and will bar agents from school facilities without a warrant. Teachers express concern for students’ safety and well-being amidst these heightened fears. Governor Healey stated that Massachusetts will assist with the investigation and prosecution of those who commit crimes but will not participate in the crackdown targeting undocumented immigrants without criminal accusations.
