There now is a Massachusetts Senate committee tasked with figuring out how to do that.
State Sen. Adam Hinds, D-Pittsfield, chairs the Committee on Reimagining Massachusetts: Post-Pandemic Resiliency, which met publicly for the first time Tuesday to discuss housing, internet access and affordability, and regional issues facing Southeastern Massachusetts.
Rather than issue a report after a set period of time, Hinds sees the committeeâs role as to study issues facing a post-pandemic Massachusetts and to investigate proposed solutions, recommending or supporting legislative actions as necessary.
The âreimagining committeeâ includes the chairs of committees on education, housing, racial equity, and labor and workforce development.
