The law previously banned women from going topless on beaches, with up to three years in prison and $300 in additional fines. The new law only applies to certain beaches.

Nantucket resident Dorothy Stover proposed the law, which gained support among residents. She noted in an interview with the Boston Globe that other communities had similar laws already in place. "I’m not saying that everybody has to be topless," Stover said at the time."I want to support the love of the body."Stover recognized negative reactions to the proposal while also stating she has received an overwhelming number of positive responses.

Healey said that her office could"discern no conflict between the vote and the Constitution or laws of the Commonwealth."
