MassMade would develop a searchable online directory of Massachusetts-based manufacturers and consumer goods companies, helping to connect them with potential customers. “We all know the benefits of shopping locally and keeping our consumer dollars circulating here in the commonwealth,” said House sponsor Rep. Josh Cutler (D-Duxbury). “Knowing which goods and products are ‘MassMade’ makes that goal a lot easier.” “Promoting businesses that are headquartered or produce goods right here in Massachusetts is not only a boost to the businesses themselves, it benefits our commonwealth as a whole as well,” said Senate sponsor Sen. John Velis (DWestfi eld). “These are jobs and key players in our local economy. This bill seeks to support those businesses that choose to invest in our state while providing a user-friendly way for consumers to fi nd where and how they can purchase those products that have ties to our communities.” QUOTABLE QUOTES “As business owners strive to fully staff their operations, lawmakers on Beacon Hill seek ways to expand time-off policies that make it more diffi cult for employers to fi nd candidates to fi ll open positions. Employers attempt to hire, yet policymakers propose new job posting requirements.” ---National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB) Massachusetts Director Christopher Carlozzi on a report that 43 percent of business owners reported job openings they could not fi ll in the current period. “When Daylight Saving Time ends, drivers may not be used to darkness when they head home from work – or their sleep schedules might not have fully adjusted.

We are proposing this change to reduce stigma for the disability community and to help ensure that no one is left behind as we pursue a strong economy for everyone in this post pandemic era. ---Gov. Maura Healey upon filing legislation to rename the Massachusetts Rehabilitation Commission (MRC) to MassAbility, to better represent the agency’s role in helping those with disabilities gain autonomy and independence. 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 fi led. They note that the infrequency and brief length of sessions are misguided and lead to irresponsible late-night sessions. During the week of October 30-November 3, the House met for a total of 32 minutes while the Senate met for a total of 16 minutes. Mon. Oct. 30 House 11:06 a.m. to 11:18 a.m. Senate 11:13 a.m. to 11:15 a.m. Tues. Oct. 31 No House session No Senate session Wed. Mon. 1 No House session No Senate session Thurs.
