Law Passes to Make Tracking Criminals Easier

  • Enhance public safety in Massachusetts by more effectively tracking criminals who cross state lines.
  • Requires other states to notify Massachusetts if out-of-state probationers and parolees move here.
  • Gives state officials the authority to track, supervise, and when necessary, return felons to the state responsible for their supervision.
