  • Letter from Legislators 7/14/20
    July 14, 2020 His Excellency Governor Charles D. Baker State House, Room #280 24 Beacon Street Boston, MA 02133 The Honorable Secretary Marylou Sudders Executive Office of Health and Human Services One Ashburton Place 11th Floor Boston, MA 02108 Re: Support to Accelerate Improvements in the Local Health System Dear Governor Baker and Secretary Sudders: Thank you for your all of your work on behalf of the Commonwealth, and especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. If this pandemic has taught us anything, it is that government can take broad scale action quickly when we make it a priority. The pandemic has highlighted our Commonwealth’s many strengths, and also its weaknesses. It has shown us that government can rise to the occasion and create powerful, positive change to address those weaknesses and build for a better tomorrow. It has become exceedingly clear that our local public health system presents us with an opportunity for taking that broad scale action quickly in order to build a stronger Commonwealth for everyone. We were pleased to pass Chapter 72 of the Acts of 2020, An Act Relative to Strengthening the Local and Regional Public Health ​ ​ ​ ​ System (also known as the State Action for Public Health Excellence, or SAPHE, Act), this past April, and we ​ are grateful that you signed this important legislation into law. In light of lessons learned during the COVID-19 pandemic, it is clear that we must now accelerate progress more quickly toward the goals of the law. During this crisis, our local boards of health have been on the front lines of our state’s response.

    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.

  • The General Court of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts State House, Boston, MA 02133-1053
    The General Court of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts State House, Boston, MA 02133-1053 April 7, 2020 David L. Bernhardt, Secretary U.S. Department of the Interior 1849 C Street, N.W. Washington DC 20240 Dear Secretary Bernhardt, We are deeply dismayed and disappointed with the Department of the Interior's recent decision to disestablish and take lands out of trust for the Mashpee Wampanoag Tribe on March 27, 2020. Not since the mid-twentieth century has an Interior Secretary taken action to disestablish a reservation. This outrageous decision comes as we mark 400 years since the arrival of the Pilgrims in 1620 and recognize the People of the First Light who inhabited these shores for centuries before contact. The Department’s capricious action brings shame to your office and to our nation. Your decision was cruel and it was unnecessary. You were under no court order to take the Wampanoag land out of trust. Further, litigation to uphold the Mashpee Wampanoag’s status as a tribe eligible for the benefits of the Indian Reorganization Act is ongoing. Your intervention was without merit and completely unnecessary. The fact that the Department made this announcement on a Friday afternoon in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic demonstrates a callous disregard for human decency. Mashpee Wampanoag leaders were focused on protecting members of their tribe, mobilizing health care resources, and executing response plans when they received your ill-timed announcement. As you are well aware, the Department of the Interior holds a federal trust responsibility to tribes, which includes the protection of Native American lands.
