HD 4241 Massachusetts House · 194th Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act repealing the misused and misguided right to shelter law that is unique to Massachusetts

HD 4241 repeals Section 30 of Chapter 23B of the Massachusetts General Laws, which was part of a state law establishing a legal right to shelter. The bill would remove this specific provision from Massachusetts law, ending the state's unique requirement for shelter services under that section. This repeal directly affects Massachusetts state law by eliminating a provision that applied only to the state's legal framework for shelter access. The bill does not create new requirements or alter other aspects of shelter policy.
