NECEC Signs Letter of Support for Environmental Justice in Massachusetts Climate Bill
NECEC joined countless businesses, clean energy companies, environmental organizations, labor leaders, health care systems, and consumer advocates in expressing strong support for the environmental justice language in the Massachusetts Climate Bill before the Legislature. Additionally, those signed onto the letter support removing barriers to solar for low income customers and creating a mechanism to ensure low income customers can benefit from solar savings without being locked into contracts. The letter urges inclusion of environmental justice provisions in the final bill.
