AI Summary

This bill aims to clarify the meal break law in Massachusetts to allow for private enforcement. The bill proposes to amend Section 150 of Chapter 149 of the General Laws to insert the figure "100" after the words "section 52E", which likely refers to the section of the law that outlines the meal break requirements. This change would enable private enforcement of the meal break law, allowing individuals to take legal action against employers who do not comply with the law.
