UPDATE THE BOTTLE BILL YES! I pledge to help. The Bottle Bill (5¢ deposit on some beverage containers) is the single most successful recycling tool in the country. But the Updated Bottle Bill—adding water, juice and sports drinks to the deposits—is being blocked by powerful business interests on Beacon Hill. The Updated Bottle Bill (H890/S1650) will reduce litter, increase recycling, and save cities and towns money in trash disposal and litter cleanup. In fact, 208 cities and towns, 375 small businesses, and 90 state and local organizations have endorsed our campaign and joined the effort to pass this bill. Despite this overwhelming support, the Updated Bottle Bill has been “bottled up” in the Legislature for more than a decade. It has never been brought to the floor for a vote, and we need your help now. No more delays! Here’s how you can help: STEP 1: To find out the name of your representative and senator, go to www.WhereDoIVoteMA.com STEP 2: Find out where your legislators stand on the Updated Bottle Bill. See the back of this flyer for a complete guide. STEP 3: Call your state senator and representative today. The State House main number is (617) 722- 2000. Ask for your senator (and then call back and ask for your representative). Tell them: “I am a voter in (name your town) and I support the Updated Bottle Bill. There should be no more delays, this bill needs to come up for a vote now.” (If your legislator supports the Updated Bottle Bill, make sure to thank them, if they are undecided or not supporting the bill, ask them to consider supporting the bill.) STEP 4: After you call, please email [email protected] to let us know your legislator’s response. -

Letter to Restore Asthma As a Co-Morbidity for COVID-19 Vaccines
February 12, 2021 February 12, 2021 Governor Charles Baker State House, Room 280 24 Beacon Street Boston, MA 02144 Secretary Marylou Sudders Executive OfFice oF Health and Human Services 1 Ashburton Place, 11th Floor Boston, MA 02108 Dear Governor Baker and Secretary Sudders: We write today to urge you to restore moderate to severe asthma to the list oF illnesses which constitute a co-morbidity For COVID-19 vaccine distribution and administration purposes. The CDC currently lists moderate to severe asthma as an illness that could present an increased risk For “severe illness From the virus that causes COVID-19” (https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/need- extra-precautions/people-with-medical-conditions.html). In 2019, Springfield was described as the nation’s number one asthma capitol by the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America (https://www.aafa.org/asthma-capitals-top-100-cities-ranking/). We believe the erroneous removal of moderate to severe asthma From the Massachusetts list oF eligible co-morbidities for phase two of the vaccination distribution must be revisited, especially when it is such a common experience among residents in the Commonwealth. Our own Massachusetts Department of Public Health has been engaged on multiple Fronts with combatting asthma in the Commonwealth, including community-based and medical interventions. Prioritizing asthma as a co-morbidity is a public health and racial equity issue. According to the MDPH, the “prevalence of current asthma in Massachusetts was higher among Black, Non-Hispanic adults than White, non-Hispanic adults.” (https://www.mass.gov/service-details/statistics-about- asthma). We recogniZe the importance oF addressing the disproportionate impact of moderate to severe asthma on black and brown communities in the Commonwealth and request that it be prioritized For vaccine distribution as a COVID-19 co-morbidity. -

Massachusetts Office of Campaign and Political Finance
Massachusetts Office of Campaign and Political Finance Campaign Finance Activity by Candidates for the Massachusetts General Court 2018 INTRODUCTION This study examines campaign finance activity undertaken by candidates for the Massachusetts Senate and House of Representatives (known collectively as The General Court) in calendar year 2018. The Office of Campaign and Political Finance has issued a report of this type after every state election since 1990. The information contained in this legislative study is based on data compiled from campaign finance reports electronically filed by candidates and treasurers of political committees organized on behalf of candidates for the Massachusetts Senate and House. In 2018, 377 candidates sought legislative office and filed disclosure reports with OCPF: 76 running for 40 Senate seats, and 301 seeking one of 160 House seats. Legislative candidates and their committees are required to file three campaign finance reports disclosing election year financial activity. The reports are due with OCPF eight days prior to the state primary election; eight days prior to the November general election; and in January of the year immediately following. Reports were due from the candidates in this study on Aug. 27, 2018, Oct. 29, 2018, and Jan. 21, 2019. Candidates and committee treasurers are required to disclose their account balances at the beginning of each reporting period; receipts and expenditures for the reporting period; in-kind contributions for the reporting period; and all liabilities. OCPF has taken steps to ensure that the information contained in this study is accurate as of the time of its compilation in 2019. This study takes into account many corrections, additions or deletions made by candidates as a result of any review conducted by OCPF or amendments filed by candidates or political committees. -
