An Act to protect democracy

This bill protects Massachusetts election workers by making it illegal to harass, threaten, or share their personal details online if it risks their safety. It defines election workers broadly - including part-time, unpaid, or contracted staff - and prohibits sharing home addresses, phone numbers, photos, or vehicle details that could lead to threats against them or their family members living in the same household. Violations carry fines up to $25,000 or up to 10 years in prison for repeat offenses. The law specifically targets conduct during election duties and online communications that create imminent safety threats.
