AI Summary
This bill proposes to establish a commission to investigate the potential impact of the "Moral Budget" on Massachusetts. The Moral Budget is a plan developed by the Poor People's Campaign and the Institute for Policy Studies that aims to reallocate federal funding to areas like education, housing, healthcare, family services, veterans' services, transportation, voting rights, and climate protection, while reducing military spending. The commission would include members from the state legislature, government agencies, and various advocacy and business organizations, and would submit a report on the potential impacts of the Moral Budget on the standard of living of Massachusetts residents within six months of the bill's enactment.
