An Act relative to town committee elections and membership

This bill (HD 3167) amends Massachusetts law governing local political party committees. It changes how town and ward committee members are elected and serves, requiring parties to select members during biennial state elections or presidential primaries from enrolled party members meeting specific deadline and residency rules (Section 1). Committee members serve two-year terms and must maintain residency in their ward/town or party enrollment, losing membership if they move or switch parties (Section 1). The bill also removes limits on committee size (requiring at least three members per ward/town) and mandates committees notify the state secretary by August 1st of the election year about the number of members to be elected (Section 2).
