After Voldemort took hold of the Ministry for Magic, a Muggle-Born Registration Commission was appointed. The purpose of this Commission was to interview all Muggle-borns.
Head of the commission was Dolores Umbridge. She interviewed the Muggle-borns in the presence of Dementors, together with Yaxley and Mafalda Hopkirk as scribe. The commission imprisoned all Muggle-borns they judged in unfair trials because they would have stolen their magic from wizards.
One of the Muggle-borns interrogated was Mary Cattermole. Harry, disguised as Runcorn, rescued her and other Muggle-borns and advised them to leave the country.
Ron presented this argument against the claim of the commission: "if you could steal magic, there wouldn't be any Squibs."
Also, Rowling later stated that all Muggle-borns have a witch or wizard somewhere on their family tree.
