John Velis (D-Westfi eld) calling for the state to increase the MassHealth reimbursement rates for substance-related and addictive disorders program. "Action on reducing plastics is overdue. The pollution and litter are everywhere, the public --by dint of the 156 cities and towns who have passed local bans---is in support, and passing these bills will result in a cleaner and more sustainable commonwealth.” ---Janet Domenitz, Director of MASSPIRG on her support for several bills limiting the use of a variety of single use plastics. “The proposed bag regulations override the majority of local rules to ban reusable, recyclable American-made plastic bags in favor of higher-cost, imported alternatives that are still made from plastic, cannot be recycled, and have larger environmental impacts. We urge lawmakers to reject these unsustainable proposals that would increase costs on Massachusetts families and look forward to collaborating with all stakeholders on more sustainable, alternative approaches as these discussions continue.” --- Zachary Taylor, director of the American Recyclable Plastic Bag Alliance criticizing many of the bills.

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 fi led. 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 dozens of bills in the days immediately preceding the end of an annual session. During the week of June 12-16, the House met for a total of 35 minutes while the Senate met for a total of 09 hours and 51 minutes. Mon.
