Right‑to‑Know Law Expansion Act

Date of Vote: May 12, 2025

Chamber of Origin: Senate

This bill updates the Right-to-Know Law by expanding and clarifying the list of entities classified as "State-affiliated," ensuring more Commonwealth authorities and commissions are explicitly subject to public transparency requirements. It adds new organizations to the definition while continuing to exclude state-related institutions like major public universities. The bill takes effect 60 days after enactment, aiming to improve clarity and access to public records.1
