Secretary of Economic Development Yvonne Hao has been the driving force behind our Commonwealth’s leadership on investing in climatetech and a clean energy economy. ELM thanks her for her more than two years of service for the Massachusetts Executive Office of Economic Development (EOED) and her commitment to advancing modern climate solutions. Not long after Secretary Hao’s appointment, ELM hosted an #ELMCorporateCouncil Leader Breakfast with Secretary Hao, where she discussed her plans for developing clean energy jobs and seizing climatetech opportunities for Massachusetts. Her following work to secure Massachusetts’ place as a global leader on climatetech through the 2024 Economic Development Bond proves she turned these plans into lasting benefits. ELM looks forward to working with Undersecretary Ashley Stolba as she steps into the role of Interim Secretary.

Massachusetts’ transportation system can be a vehicle for stimulating our economy and meeting our net-zero goals – but we need the funding to get there. Our transit system is currently outdated, underfunded, and unreliable, putting us at risk for massive costs from climate-related impacts. Our lawmakers must act with urgency to modernize and decarbonize Massachusetts’ transportation system. ELM is proud to have convened twenty-one institutions to urge the Massachusetts Legislature to take advantage of opportunities to meet residents’ needs and increase Massachusetts’ competitiveness.

In 2024, the Mass Leads Act positioned Massachusetts to lead in climatetech. Now, we need to back the programs that will turn that momentum into real progress. Massachusetts Clean Energy Center is key to building the workforce and tech behind a net-zero future. Sense joined 53 other organizations in urging the Legislature to fully fund MassCEC at $30M in the FY26 budget.
