What is State Committee?

The State Committee, which meets quarterly, sets policy and makes major decisions for the Party. The State Committee consists of representatives elected from Massachusetts State senatorial districts at the time of presidential primaries; and of regional delegates elected every four years from the regions as identified by Party bylaws.
