Massachusetts H1715, also known as Kelsey's Bill, requires wireless telecommunications carriers and in-vehicle security and communications service providers to provide location information to law enforcement agencies upon request.

The bill also mandates that these providers submit their emergency contact information to the executive office, which will maintain a database for public safety answer points.
