Oppose H.1727: Stop a “DEI” Judiciary in Massachusetts
Legislative Alerts
H.1727 would create a commission biased toward racial quotas and DEI policies, and establish a special commission to study increasing racial diversity among judges.
Contact your state legislators
Urge your state legislators to oppose H.1727, protect merit-based justice, and prevent government policy that prioritizes race-based agendas over the well-being of all Americans.
Why it Matters
URGENT: H.1727 is pending in the Joint Committee on the Judiciary. In addition to contacting your state legislators, contact the two committee chairpersons, and urge them to oppose H.1727:
- Senator Lydia Edwards (D-3rd Suffolk): (617) 722-1634, [email protected]
- Representative Michael Day (D-31st Middlesex): (617) 722-2396, [email protected]
House Bill No. 1727 (H.1727) was introduced by Representative Carlos González (D-Hampden), and is co-sponsored by Representative Orlando Ramos (D-Hampden). H.1727 would create a 15-member commission biased toward racial quotas and DEI policies, and establish a special commission to study increasing racial diversity among judges.
The proposed legislation would create a commission to require racial quotas in judicial appointments, undermining merit-based selection and promoting discriminatory affirmative-action policies. This mandate divides communities, imposes ideological bias, and forces race-based mandates over merit-based appointments in violation of the 14th Amendment’s guarantee of equal protection under the law.
H.1727 is part of the larger Marxist DEI agenda to replace meritocracy with mandated racial engineering through identity politics. Declaring racial diversity a state “requirement” sets a dangerous precedent for further mandates on other forms of Marxist social engineering.
By rejecting this provision, Massachusetts would prevent state pressure to implement racist quotas, restoring the right to impartial, merit-based judiciary. It would uphold equal justice in Massachusetts law, reject racial discrimination, and uphold the foundational principle “that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.”
Massachusetts must reject mandates such as H.1727, along with other intrusive methods of central planning. Merit and equality are fundamental aspects of justice. Urge your state legislators to oppose H.1727, protect merit-based justice, and prevent government policy that prioritizes race-based agendas over the well-being of all Americans.
