Resolve providing for the creation of a commemorative memorial portrait in the Massachusetts State House in honor of State Representative Doris Bunte
This bill directs the creation and installation of a commemorative portrait honoring former State Representative Doris Bunte within the Massachusetts State House. It allocates up to $250,000 annually to the Representative Doris Bunte scholarship fund, which is managed by the Massachusetts Black & Latino Legislative Caucus. The state superintendent of the State House is tasked with selecting a suitable location for the artwork, subject to approval from the art commission and consultation with relevant legislative committees. This measure also ensures the ongoing maintenance of the portrait once it is officially installed.
