Brothers and Sisters,
We are proud to continue advocating for legislation that will bring standards, regulation, and accountability to the licensing process for heavy equipment. Right now, bills HB 2664 and SB 1736 are under evaluation by the Joint Committee on Public Safety and Homeland Security. It is our duty to keep these bills top-of-mind for legislators—especially those on the committee.
Please take a few minutes to send a letter to YOUR legislators sharing your support for strong legislation that impacts all of us as Operating Engineers: https://actionnetwork.org/letters/support-ma-heavy-equipment-regulations
By following the link above, you’ll be asked to enter your name and address. Then, using our pre-written email template, all you have to do is press “send.”
THANK YOU to all those who have already submitted letters to your legislators—it takes all of us to bring this legislation across the finish line!
If you have any questions about these bills, please contact myself or Business Representative Tayla Rose. We appreciate your advocacy for improved safety through stronger regulations in Massachusetts.
In Solidarity,
Michael J. Bowes
Business Manager
