In keeping with actions taken by other states, such as California and New York, Massachusetts is poised to pass an updated equal pay law that will greatly expand the ability of individuals to bring claims for violations of equal pay.

The current proposal recently passed unanimously in the state Senate, and is now before the House of Representatives.
