Governor files message urging legislation to boost Massachusetts competitiveness in discovery and research
Summary
A message from the governor recommending legislation to preserve and advance Massachusetts competitiveness in discovery, research and innovation was filed and referred to the House Committee on Economic Development under Rule 30.
The clerk reported a message from the governor recommending legislation "relative to preserve and advance Massachusetts competitiveness in discovery, research, and innovation for a vibrant economy." The message was filed in the office of the clerk on Thursday, July 31 and, under Rule 30, the presiding officer directed that the message be sent to the House Committee on Economic Development.
The transcript records the clerk reading the governor's message on the floor and the chair's referral of that message to the committee on economic development. No bill text, fiscal notes, or committee assignment language beyond the referral was read into the record in the provided transcript excerpts.
Because the transcript excerpt contains only the filing and referral, it does not specify bill numbers, sponsoring members, proposed statutory changes, or funding sources. The committee referral places the matter in the initial stage of legislative consideration; any subsequent hearings, committee reports, or amendments would appear in later House records or committee minutes.
