AI Summary
This bill seeks to amend existing Massachusetts state procurement laws to prioritize the purchase of products and services from businesses based in Massachusetts or the United States. Specifically, it requires state agencies and authorities to procure products or services from businesses with their principal place of business in Massachusetts, if available and not more than 10% more expensive than out-of-state options. If Massachusetts-based options are not available, the agencies must procure from businesses within the United States, again with a 10% price differential allowance. Additionally, the bill establishes a goal for the state to ensure that at least 15% of its procurement contracts are awarded to small businesses based in Massachusetts.
