BUYER1 Beckwith, Linda Olia, Reza Roland, Erin BEACON | FROM PAGE 18 AND WEIGHT (H 1919) – The Judiciary Committee held a hearing on a proposal that would add height and weight to Massachusetts’ existing anti-discrimination laws, by prohibiting discrimination, based on height and weight, in employment, education, housing and places of public accommodation. The measure would require the Attorney General’s Office to investigate complaints unless the action in question is based on the purpose of compliance with any established state, federal or industry safety standards. It would also prohibit places of public accommodation, resort or amusement from issuing or circulating any policies or communications that signal discriminatory treatment based on body size, aligning this protection with how Massachusetts approaches other forms of discrimination. “No one should lose out on a job, education or basic dignity because of their height or weight,” said sponsor Rep. Tram Nguyen (D-Andover). “Particularly, we know that the effects of weight-based discrimination do not fall evenly. Communities facing intersecting barriers, such as limited access to affordable, nutritious foods or other systemic inequities, are often hit hardest. This legislation expands nondiscrimination protection to ensure that every person in Massachusetts is treated with fairness, dignity and respect.” QUOTABLE QUOTES “This funding marks a major milestone for communities around our commonwealth that have waited far too long for meaningful investment. When I proposed the Environmental Justice Fund … I did so with the conviction that every neighborhood deserves clean air, safe water and Roland, Carl V BUYER2 SELLER1 Whitbeck, Dale H Preston LLC Sylva Irt a healthy environment. These funds, which we procured by holding polluters accountable, will help repair historic harms and ensure that these resources flow directly to the communities most in need of our support.” ---Attorney General Andrea Campbell announcing the awarding of $475,000 in grants to support community-based projects that address environmental harms in disadvantaged communities. “President Trump’s executive order preempting state-level AI regulation is nothing less than a giveaway to the trillion-dollar Big Tech companies and ultra-wealthy CEOs that funded his campaign. One of the most basic functions of government is the power to protect its people. By taking away our power to place reasonable guardrails around the development and use of artificial intelligence, the president is neutering our ability to defend Bay Staters against the worst drawbacks of this technology, including AI-generated deepfakes, predatory algorithms, dangerous misinformation campaigns and more.” ---Sen. Mike Moore (D-Millbury) urging the Bay State Congressional delegation to fight President Trump’s recently-signed executive order on artificial intelligence, which directs U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi to establish an AI Litigation Task Force whose sole purpose will be to challenge state-level AI regulations in court. “From our smallest hill towns to our Gateway Cities and regional hubs, we are listening to local leaders and making sure they have the resources they need to deliver for their residents. These Community Development Block Grants will support housing and economic development in cities and towns across the Sylva Jr, Gilbert F state, and the new Rural and Small Town designation will make sure that no community is left behind.” ---Gov. Maura Healey, announcing nearly $33.5 million in federal Community Development Block Grant awards to support housing, infrastructure, social services and economic development projects in 52 communities across Massachusetts. “These grants put real resources behind our commitment to protecting Massachusetts’ farmland. We are proud to support Massachusetts farming heritage and legacy to ensure our farmlands are there for generations to come.” --- Energy and Environmental Affairs Secretary Rebecca Tepper announcing over $1.8 million in funding to help protect farmland, support farm businesses and keep agricultural land in active use across Massachusetts through the newly created Massachusetts Farmland Partnership Program. HOW LONG WAS LAST WEEK’S SESSION? Beacon Hill Roll Call tracks the length of time that the House and Senate were in session each week. Many legislators say that legislative sessions are only one aspect of the Legislature’s job and that a lot of important work is done outside of the House and Senate chambers. They note that their jobs also involve committee work, research, constituent work and other matters that are important to their districts. Critics say that the Legislature does not meet regularly or long enough to debate and vote in public view on the thousands of pieces of legislation that have been filed. They note that the infrequency and brief length of sessions are misguided and lead to irresponsible late-night sessions and a mad rush to act on dozSELLER2 ADDRESS 3 Whitbeck Rd 68 Linden St #46 12 Foster St CITY Everett Everett Everett ens of bills in the days immediately preceding the end of an annual session.
