We're speeding up review times for new housing because the faster we get shovels in the ground, the faster families get to move into new, reasonably priced homes.

Right now, it can take a year or more to get new homes through the environmental review process. That's way too long.      So, let's speed it up. Let's make it 30 days.      We don't need to choose between protecting the environment and building more homes. We can do it all.

We’re teaming up across state government to cut housing costs. These proposed reforms will get critical housing projects across the finish line faster and prioritize the kinds of housing we need most – dense, energy efficient, and resilient buildings that will stay affordable.

Housing development delays raise costs and limit options for families across Massachusetts. @MassGovernor's draft @MEPAalerts reforms cut red tape so we can build more homes more quickly while maintaining our strong environmental standards.

At 101, Robert ‘Boots’ Chouinard has spent a lifetime serving others as a soldier, teacher, and lifeguard. It’s only fitting that we rename Salisbury Beach’s Lifeguard Command Center in his honor. Thank you, Boots, for all the lives you’ve kept safe ❤️

Happy National Dog Day! Only good energy from these DOER dogs.

Spun out of @MIT, @CFS_Energy is the perfect example of the pioneering science we want to see more of in our state. Had the chance to tour their Devens facility yesterday with @EEASecretary and @MassEOED. Commercial fusion: the next frontier for energy in Massachusetts⚡️

We were honored to host @MassGovernor today at our commercial fusion energy campus in Devens, Massachusetts, where we talked about the state’s leadership on clean energy and the role CFS is playing to advance that leadership. During her trip, the governor and our CEO

Congratulations to our newest Green Community, @TownOfReadingMA! Reading’s commitment to cut municipal energy use will save $100,000+ each year - not to mention lower costs for its households and businesses and create a healthier, more resilient community. Way to go, Reading!

As the best state to live in, Massachusetts should be the best for all the creatures that live here! 🐢🦉🌱🦋 We’re taking nation-leading steps to protect plants and animals, preserve natural habitats, support farms and fishers, and help more people enjoy the great outdoors.

Investments in water transportation are huge for communities and provide more access and opportunities for residents! ⛴️ In East Boston, @MassDEP’s grants will expand the service on @MBTA’s Winthrop/Quincy commuter ferry, improve water transportation infrastructure, and connect

🚢 This morning, Commissioner Heiple joined @MassLtGov, @MassEEA Sec. Tepper & @MBTA GM Eng to announce $2.3M+ for expanding Boston Harbor ferry & water transit — making it faster, more affordable & more accessible for residents: https://t.co/xAfR1XPvV2

We’re making it easier for everyone to get around as more Massachusetts residents choose to drive electric. Not only are these vehicles fun to drive, but they are typically less expensive to maintain than their gas- and diesel-powered counterparts.

The recent EVICC Assessment highlighted critical gaps in electric vehicle charging infrastructure across Massachusetts, and now @MassDEP is investing $46 million to close them. It’s a major step toward building a cleaner environment and more vibrant economy for everyone.
