H 5023: An Act relative to sexual harassment workplace training

This bill requires most Massachusetts employers (those with more than 25 employees) to adopt written anti-harassment policies by January 1, 2027, and provide annual interactive training to all employees focused on preventing sexual harassment and unlawful retaliation. The training must cover specific examples, bystander intervention, internal/external remedies, and supervisory responsibilities, with online sessions requiring anonymous Q&A and participation tracking. Employers must maintain records of training completion for five years and provide written policy copies to all employees at hire or role change. Smaller employers (25 or fewer employees) are exempt from these requirements.

HD 5601: The annual report of the Executive Office for Administration and Finance (under Section 2HHHHHH(d) of Chapter 29 of the General Laws) submitting the inaugural report on the activities of the Disaster Relief and Resiliency Fund for calendar year 2025

This is not a new bill but the required inaugural annual report for Massachusetts' Disaster Relief and Resiliency Fund, submitted as mandated by Section 2HHHHHH(d) of Chapter 29. The report details that the fund received $14 million in 2025 from the state's FY25 surplus but made no expenditures, as no qualifying disasters occurred after the fund's initial transfer. It outlines the fund's structure - established in 2024 to provide flexible state assistance for communities affected by natural or catastrophic events like floods, storms, or wildfires - with unspent balances rolling over to future years. The report confirms no programs were activated in 2025, as the fund was only funded late in the year and no disasters met the eligibility criteria.

HD 5575: A communication from the Executive Office for Administration and Finance and the Executive Office for Housing and Livable Communities (see Section 10 of Chapter 1 and Section 88 of Chapter 73 of the Acts of 2025 and Section 19 of Chapter 88 of the Acts of 2024) submitting the January 8, 2026 biweekly report on the emergency housing assistance program

This bill is a procedural communication submitting the January 8, 2026, biweekly report on Massachusetts' emergency housing assistance program. It is submitted by the Executive Office for Administration and Finance and the Executive Office for Housing and Livable Communities, as required by prior legislation (Acts of 2025, 2024). The report tracks data on the program's operations, including applicants seeking shelter due to emergencies like fire or flood. It does not create new policy but fulfills a reporting requirement for oversight of existing emergency housing assistance.

HD 5578 is a procedural communication from the Office of the Comptroller, not a policy bill. It submits the scheduled transfer plan for funds in the Health Information Technology Trust Fund for fiscal year 2026. This routine administrative action details how money will be allocated from the trust fund to designated state programs. It does not create new laws or directly affect citizens or businesses, as it only reports existing funding arrangements. The Comptroller’s office placed this communication on file on February 5, 2026.
