Summary of House Bill H 4606

Overview

H 4606 is an appropriations/procedural measure in the Massachusetts House of Representatives that orders an extension of time for the Committee on Revenue to report on certain current House documents. The extension pushes the deadline to Thursday, December 18, 2025, and overrides standard timing rules to allow more time for review.
