Economic Recovery Act (E.R.A.) Proposal

My vision for Massachusetts over the next decade starts with job creation. Our state has lost 180,000 jobs over the past ten years – a situation that is simply unacceptable. In order to reclaim the title of “innovation state,” we must take advantage of our education, health care and technology resources, establish Massachusetts as a welcoming environment for entrepreneurs, and implement long-term solutions that will have lasting results. These objectives can be achieved through lowering our business-related taxes, reducing costs linked to employment, and living within our means on Beacon Hill.
