Relative to reporting requirements of state agencies to the Secretary of the Commonwealth for the maintenance of the Central Registry of Voters. Election Laws.

AI Summary

This bill amends the Massachusetts General Laws to require the Registry of Motor Vehicles and other state agencies to regularly provide voter registration data, such as name, address, and driver's license information, to the Secretary of the Commonwealth. The Secretary is then required to share this data with the Electronic Registration Information Center (ERIC) to help maintain accurate and complete voter lists. The bill also directs the Secretary to implement a centralized system to manage and evaluate the data received from ERIC in order to minimize data management at the local level.
