Governor Healey signed the 2026 Massachusetts budget into law on the 4th of July. The budget invests in older residents and supports the Commonwealth’s 780,000 family caregivers allowing people to age with dignity in their own homes and communities-where they want to. The governor did veto a key proposal that would set up a plan that allows more people to save for retirement.

The Massachusetts Legislature failed to pass final legislation that would strengthen regulations in long term care facilities despite approving reforms in both the House and the Senate. A housing bill that will allow for accessory dwelling units was passed. That bill moves on to the governor who is expected to sign it.
