AI Summary
This bill proposes to amend Chapter 266 of the General Laws by adding a new section, 120G, titled "Trespass on or about School Grounds," which makes it illegal for anyone to trespass or loiter on school property without a legitimate reason, such as having custody of a student or other authorized access. Violators of this new law could face up to six months in jail, a fine of up to $1,500, or both.
