Bill overview
This bill proposed to designate Election Day, specifically Presidential election days, as a state holiday in Massachusetts. Supporters argued this would increase voter turnout by making it easier for people to vote. However, the bill failed to pass the legislature. It aimed to provide state employees with a day off to participate in the democratic process.
