The current recycling and waste systems are not sustainable and not functioning to meet our growing Commonwealth's needs. To combat the waste crisis, I joined with Senator Jason Lewis to form the bipartisan and bicameral Massachusetts Zero Waste Caucus. The caucus works together to reduce and eliminate solid waste in Massachusetts through legislative action, state and local collaboration, information gathering, education, and public outreach.
