Issue Position

The first step in protecting the health of our citizens is to ensure our environment is protected. Massachusetts needs to take every step necessary to protect our water, air, and natural resources. In 2008 Massachusetts passed the Global Warming and Solutions Act that set ambitious goals to reduce our pollution. We need to take every effort to make sure these goals are achieved.

Plymouth is blessed with beautiful natural resources. Natural resources, such as our ocean, drive economic growth and bring a host of benefits to our community. When we safely manage our natural resources we are not only being responsible stewards are also investing in Plymouth's small businesses and tourism industry.
