House committee strips Senate policy plans from environmental bond
The House Ways and Means Committee reduced the Senate's $3.94 billion environmental borrowing bill to $3.078 billion, removing policy riders like the Plastics Reduction Act and other provisions. The revised bill aligns closer to Governor Maura Healey's original $2.9 billion proposal, focusing on environmental protections while streamlining permitting for infrastructure projects.
