Arguing that Massachusetts will not be able to meet the goals of a major emissions reduction bill without additional funding, Rep. Bill Driscoll and environmental activists unveiled a new bill aimed at raising and investing $10 billion in green infrastructure and other mitigation strategies by 2030.
Driscoll s legislation (HD 1972) would extend carbon pricing on emissions to industries that do not face those mechanisms currently, such as heating, which the Climate XChange Education and Research group said could raise $500 million to $750 million per year. The bill calls for market-based pricing mechanisms on electricity, transportation, heating and the industrial sector.

STATEHOUSE ROUNDUP: Riding shotgun
Recap and analysis of the week in state government
Kids, grandkids, neighbors. Strangers online. Suddenly everyone this week was craving a little quality time with the older and wiser among us, looking to get out of the house and go for a drive . maybe to Gillette Stadium, or the Eastfield Mall.
The sudden popularity of the so-called Silent Generation had to do with Gov. Charlie Baker s new policy on vaccinating the 75-and-older cohort. Beginning Thursday, Baker said that anyone who accompanied an eligible senior citizen to a state-run vaccination site could get the shot as well, regardless of their age or health.

Among the new leadership team is Rep. Sarah Peake, D-Provincetown, who represents the Fourth Barnstable District, consisting of Brewster s Precinct 3, Chatham, Eastham, Harwich, Orleans, Provincetown, Truro and Wellfleet.
