Senate President Therese Murray (D-Plymouth) and House Speaker Robert A. DeLeo (D-Winthrop) announced updates to the public website that will allow users to personalize their experience when navigating bills, committees, hearing information and connecting with legislators.

“The Legislature’s public website is an extremely valuable tool in serving our constituents and making information easily available,” said House Speaker Robert A. DeLeo (D-Winthrop). “These new features make the site more user-friendly and interactive. By allowing visitors to personalize their experience we hope to engage more citizens and provide improved access to legislative updates.”

Through “MyLegislature,” users can create a user-id and password to access their secure MyLegislature account. Users can identify specific bills, hearings, committees and legislators that they are interested in following and their personalized homepage will display each selection. Any hearings scheduled for their selected committees will automatically be included in their MyLegislature hearing list. In addition, users can further personalize MyLegislature by identifying any accessibility needs.

The updated website also includes an easy-to-use format to connect with legislators. The public website can be found at www.malegislature.gov.
