***EMERGENCY LEGISLATIVE CALL TO ACTION***

Please click the button below and type the bill number into the search bar. You will see that this bill would do the exact opposite of what its title suggests.
This bill was just introduced on June 3 by the House Committee on Ways and Means and it appears they are trying to fast track it through the legislature.
We recommend sending the emails to your State Rep, State Senator, and the members of the Senate Committee on Ways and Means whose email addresses are below.

Dear Senate Committee on Ways and Means,
I urge you to reject House Bill H.5469, An Act Promoting Transparency and Public Access in State Government, or any similar bill that may be put before your committee. H.5469 directly undermines the will of Massachusetts voters.
In November 2024, voters strongly passed Ballot Question 1 with a 71.57% majority. The initiative amended Chapter 11 of the General Laws. It gave the independently elected State Auditor clear power to audit the “accounts, programs, activities and functions” of the General Court (the Legislature). Voters wanted real, independent oversight of how the Legislature spends taxpayer money.
H.5469 severely weakens this voter-approved law. It limits the Auditor to only narrow “administrative functions” — specifically budget adoption, official audits, expenditure of funds, and monetary settlements. The bill excludes core legislative activities, restricts records to fiscal year 2021 onward, and removes court enforcement. Judges cannot compel compliance. Any disagreements are simply noted in the final report with no real remedy.
This bill allows the Legislature to unilaterally change and limit a law passed directly by the people. It betrays public trust and independent accountability.
Please honor the voters’ clear intent and defeat H.5469.
Sincerely,
Name

Dear Members of the Senate Committee on Ways and Means,
I am writing to oppose S.2936, "An Act Upgrading Elections Infrastructure, Improving Voter Access, and Reducing Municipal Burden." This bill conflicts with federal law and existing Massachusetts laws, including multiple provisions of the Massachusetts General Laws (MGL). It weakens election integrity by prioritizing access over the strong safeguards needed to ensure only eligible citizens vote and that every ballot can be properly audited.
Here are my main concerns:
Conflicts with Federal Voter Registration Law
MGL Chapter 51, Section 47C does not comply with federal Law. A recent federal court ruling confirms this (Case No. 24-cv-12592-DJC). The 1993 National Voter Registration Act (NVRA) requires that the State must maintain “all records concerning the implementation of programs and activities conducted for the purpose of ensuring the accuracy and currency of official lists of eligible voters” (statewide voter rolls).S.2936 does not comply with the public access component of the NVRA.
Ballot Drop Boxes
The bill requires municipalities to install and maintain secured ballot drop boxes with extended hours. Without strong chain-of-custody rules, constant surveillance, and clear tracking, these boxes increase the risk of tampering and unverifiable ballots. Recent experiences in Massachusetts and other states have shown serious problems with ballot harvesting and unsecured drop boxes.
Permanent Mail-In Voting
S.2936 creates a system of permanent mail-in voter status that goes far beyond current law. Once voters are signed up permanently, it becomes much harder to verify their eligibility each election. This also increases problems with lost, delayed, or rejected ballots.
Electronic Voting Systems
Allowing electronic ballots, electronic poll books, and a fully digital central registry creates new cybersecurity risks and makes audits more difficult. These changes weaken the paper-based safeguards that currently protect our elections. According to cybersecurity experts, systems that are connected to the internet cannot be secured.
Insufficient Citizenship Verification
The bill only collects “nationality” information for non-citizens for street listing purposes. Citizenship is a basic requirement for voting. Simply noting nationality is not enough to confirm eligibility.
For these reasons, I urge you to reject S.2936. Massachusetts should focus on election reforms that are both secure and lawful.
Sincerely,

Dear Massachusetts State Legislators,
I am writing as a concerned Massachusetts voter to urge you to oppose Senate Bill S.503 (and companion H.799), which would decouple the municipal census from voter registration.
While framed as reducing voting barriers, the bill would eliminate a simple, low-cost tool that local election officials use to maintain accurate voter rolls. Under current law (M.G.L. Chapter 51, §4), cities and towns conduct an annual street list (municipal census) of residents. If a voter fails to respond for two consecutive years, they are placed on the inactive voter list (M.G.L. Chapter 51, §37A). Inactive voters remain registered and can vote by confirming their address and identity at the polls.
S.503 would remove this link and rely instead on a fine (already possible under M.G.L. Chapter 56, §4). This creates serious problems:
● Jury duty integrity: The census/street list is the primary source for the Master Juror List (M.G.L. Chapter 234A, §§10-11; see also Office of Jury Commissioner requirements). A fine system could allow people to pay to avoid inclusion, shrinking the jury pool and harming fair trials.
● Election accuracy: Town clerks rely on responses to update rolls for movers, deaths, and non-residents, reducing outdated registrations, provisional ballots, and lines.
● Broader impacts: Accurate street lists support school planning, emergency services, property assessments, and state aid formulas. Lower response rates would harm local governance.
Massachusetts already has automatic voter registration through the RMV (and other agencies) plus easy reactivation for inactive voters. There is no evidence the current system blocks eligible citizens from voting.
I respectfully ask you to reject S.503 and H.799. Please prioritize election integrity and heed the practical concerns of the officials who administer our elections.
Thank you for your service and consideration.
Sincerely,
Your Name
