The Boston Herald (July 26, 2026) reports that the Massachusetts bill 'An Act Promoting the Civil Rights and Inclusion of American Muslims in the Commonwealth' would form a commission to prioritize Muslims for jobs in state government, which supports the claim as of 2026-08-04.
This claim is about the present, so it is judged as of the day it was checked.

… We're not gonna, we're not gonna surrender." I mean, our leaders, our politicians, our Democrat politicians, open the border and let them in, and, and hell, in Massachusetts, we have a bill, as we talked about last week, before the vote for the Senate and the House in, in the State House, where, if it passes, we'll prioritize Muslims for state jobs. If you are a Muslim in your openly, outwardly expressing your religion, you're wearing the burka, you're, you're, you're chanting, you know, praying five times a day, you get priority over others: Christians, Jews, atheists. …

Supports. The Boston Herald reports the bill would 'form a commission to prioritize Muslims for jobs in state government' and was advanced by lawmakers in July 2026.[3]
Context. The official malegislature record for H.3052 describes a permanent commission on the status of people who practice Islam, but its summary does not mention hiring priority; it shows the 2023-24 version was referred and reported with no further action, and the Herald cites a different bill number (S.2134), so the two may be different versions.[2][3]
Context. The Politifact fact-check on the Massachusetts governor's debate does not address this bill and neither supports nor refutes the claim.[1]
