An Act enforcing accessibility for voters with disabilities

This bill requires Massachusetts cities and towns to inspect all polling places and early voting sites every four years for compliance with federal and state accessibility laws. If barriers are found, local officials must implement temporary fixes within 48 hours and submit a written compliance plan detailing permanent solutions and timelines to the State Secretary. The State Secretary must annually report on inspection results, non-compliance, and corrective actions to the legislature. The law aims to ensure consistent accessibility for voters with disabilities at all voting locations through regular oversight and clear accountability measures.
