Watch the Massachusetts General Court Live: Video Feed, Session Dates and How to Follow
This feed plays on its own official site, so there is no player on this page. Use the link below to watch.
What Is This Feed?
The Massachusetts Legislature, formally called the General Court, has 160 representatives and 40 senators at the State House in Boston. Its daily events page has Watch buttons for sessions and hearings.
When Can I Watch?
NCSL lists Massachusetts as meeting year-round. Formal sessions are often busiest around the middle and end of each two-year cycle. Check the daily events page before you tune in. Dates change each year, so confirm the current calendar on the official site.
Why This Feed Matters?
Massachusetts wrote the oldest working written constitution in the world, so it has deep roots in the idea of limited government. Even so, watchdogs often press it to be more open. A public feed gives residents one direct way to follow the process.
