H 1214 Massachusetts House · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act to protect taxpayer confidentiality

This bill strengthens confidentiality for taxpayer information by preventing public disclosure of identities and records examined by the treasurer's office. It specifically prohibits sharing such information through standard public records requests and exempts it from being classified as public records under existing laws. The law takes immediate effect upon the governor's signature and applies to all taxpayer information handled after that date. Taxpayers whose financial details are reviewed by the treasurer's office are directly affected by this protection.
