Resolve establishing a special commission to study climate change staffing levels
This bill creates a 17-member commission to study staffing needs for climate change response at regional and local levels across Massachusetts. The commission will investigate current staffing, identify gaps, and develop recommendations for equitable resources - including technical, financial, and implementation support - for rural, suburban, and urban communities to meet the state's 2050 climate goals. It must report findings by July 31, 2026, to key legislative committees. The bill directly affects how climate resilience planning is structured regionally but does not enact new policies itself.
