AI Summary

This bill aims to ensure that employees of companies that receive large tax breaks are paid a prevailing wage. It proposes to amend Chapter 149 of the General Laws by inserting a new Section 27I, which would require any contractor, entity, or individual who receives more than $1 million in state tax credits, state grants, or other state subsidies in one fiscal year to comply with Sections 26 through 27H of the same chapter. These sections outline the prevailing wage requirements for public works projects, ensuring that workers are paid at least the locally-established prevailing wage rate for their trade.
