BOSTON (AP) -- Gov.-elect Deval Patrick said Thursday he will rescind a new agreement between the state and federal authorities that allows State Police troopers to arrest illegal immigrants.
Speaking with reporters after a lunch meeting with state legislators, the incoming governor said he believes the troopers have enough to do already without having to also enforce immigration laws.
"If I have that power, I'm going to rescind that agreement," Patrick, a Democrat, told reporters.
He added: "I do believe I have that power."
Just a quick note to the illegals who are getting ready to head to their new, safe lives in Massachusetts - if a fat old guy in an Oldsmobile offers to drive you anywhere - especially if it involves bridges - don't do it.
