An Act relative to public housing restrictions for sex offenders

This bill proposes to prohibit individuals convicted of Level 2 or Level 3 sex offenses in Massachusetts from accessing public housing facilities subsidized by the state. The legislation directly affects sex offenders by adding a new restriction to existing laws that currently govern eligibility for state-funded housing. By amending Section 26 of Chapter 121B, the bill mandates that these specific offenders be denied access to such housing without requiring additional judicial review or individualized assessments.
