AI Summary

This bill aims to update the Massachusetts rideshare program. It proposes several key provisions: 1) significantly expanding the program by including more employers with less than 1,000 employees; 2) providing exemptions for employers who are members of transportation management associations (TMAs); 3) requiring TMAs to submit reports for their member facilities; 4) allowing TMAs to submit consolidated reports for employers within their geographic area; and 5) permitting employers and TMAs with drive-alone rates under 75% to submit reports every two years instead of annually. The bill also requires the Department of Environmental Protection to consolidate and publicly release key information about the rideshare program, such as the statewide drive-alone rate and the percentage of affected facilities with drive-alone rates below 75%.
