ACEC/MA Bill Tracking Report - March 2017

February Budget Numbers Below Estimate - report from Rasky Partners
Tax collections for the month of February 2017 were off target, falling $117 million (9.1%) below the projected estimate, just a month after tax estimates were down $96 million from February 2016. In October, the Baker administration lowered its estimate of expected tax collections by $175 million and receipts heading into the spring are trailing even the modest projection by $134 million. April 2017 will see lawmakers in the House and Senate formally weighing in on taxes and spending through May in a series of budget debates with the views of House leaders, namely Speaker DeLeo and chairs of the Committee's on Ways and Means and Revenue carrying extra weight when setting the tone on taxes. 

Speaker DeLeo Lays Out Priorities in Chamber Address - report from Rasky Partners
On Tuesday, March 7, Speaker of the House Robert DeLeo laid out his agenda for the legislative session during a breakfast hosted by the Boston Chamber of Commerce. The priorities included a $2 million business pilot at UMass, new workplace protections for pregnant women, and developing a plan for the House to respond to the Trump administrations actions. Additionally, the Speaker said that he wants to create a formal Substance Addiction Fund, using proceeds from legalized marijuana sales to fund substance abuse recovery efforts DeLeo compared his approach to the forthcoming retail marijuana industry to Massachusetts' casino gambling industry and stressed that revenues from the Marijuana industry should finance its own regulation. He said said he is looking forward to including municipalities at the forefront of the conversation on Marijuana regulation.. 

Unemployment Rate Ticks Up Despite More Jobs
Though Massachusetts added more than 10,000 jobs last month and the labor secretary says more people are working than ever before, the state's unemployment rate ticked up to 3.4 percent in February. Jobs numbers released Thursday by the Executive Office of Labor and Workforce Development show that 3,503,500 Massachusetts residents were employed and 123,500 were unemployed last month, for a total labor force of 3,626,900 people. The unemployment rate climbed by 0.2 percentage points from January to 3.4%, which remains lower than the national unemployment rate of 4.7% as reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The February labor force increased by 27,600 from 3,599,300 in January, with 18,000 more residents employed and 9,700 more residents unemployed. The labor force participation rate, the percentage of the working age population that is employed or unemployed but actively looking for work, was 65.3%, according to the Executive Office of Labor and Workforce Development. Last month, job gains occurred in the education and health services; professional, scientific, and business services; construction; manufacturing; and information sectors. From February 2016 to February 2017, the state has added 57,700 jobs. The state's unemployment rate can rise even while the state is adding jobs, as was the case in February, if the number of people seeking work in a month grows by a greater proportion than does the number of people finding work that month.
