“Our administration is proud to deliver our first budget that meets the moment by making Massachusetts more affordable, competitive and equitable. This budget makes significant investments in schools, child care, clean energy, the environment, and access to mental and physical health care. We are grateful to Speaker Mariano, Senate President Spilka, Chair Michlewitz, Chair Rodrigues and the entire Legislature for their hard work on this budget that reflects our shared values.”

— Governor Maura Healey

“This budget delivers many of the hallmark provisions proposed by our administration – including the MassReconnect program to make community college free for students aged 25 and older, grants for child care providers, support for critical workforce development programs like early college, and dedicating 1 percent of the budget to energy and the environment for the first time.”

—Lieutenant Governor Kim Driscoll
