AI Summary
This bill aims to improve the fairness and public transparency of individuals who interact with election officials in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. It proposes requiring members of Massachusetts political party state committees, city ward committees, city committees, and town committees to take a sworn oath or affirmation affirming their commitment to faithfully following the Constitution and laws, including electoral laws and regulations.
