Boston Globe

The Boston Globe has published an opinion piece examining the experience of driving as an immigrant in the United States under heightened ICE enforcement. The column argues that routine traffic stops have become moments of genuine risk for undocumented immigrants, who fear being detained or deported over minor infractions. It adds to a growing debate over the reach of immigration enforcement into everyday American life.

Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey is facing criticism over her proposed gas tax holiday, with an editorial in The Boston Globe arguing the measure amounts to little more than election-year pandering rather than meaningful relief for drivers at the pump. Critics say the temporary suspension would do little to lower prices while costing the state revenue needed for transportation funding.
