UCANE Day at the Massachusetts State House

On Wednesday, UCANE members convened in the historic Senate Reading Room for a meaningful UCANE Day at the State House, advancing the goals of our InvestInWaterMA campaign alongside the national Imagine a Day Without Water initiative.

We were privileged to welcome Senate President Karen Spilka, Secretary of Energy and Environmental Affairs Rebecca Tepper, and the Co-Chairs of the Joint Committee on Environment and Natural Resources, Senator Rebecca Rausch and Representative Christine Barber. These distinguished leaders joined UCANE members for an engaging discussion focused on strengthening investment in water and utility infrastructure across Massachusetts.

Investing in water and utility infrastructure delivers substantial long-term returns—driving economic growth, promoting public health, and ensuring environmental sustainability for generations to come. High-quality infrastructure reduces costly disruptions, enhances community resilience, and supports thriving businesses, demonstrating that every dollar spent is an investment in a stable and prosperous future.

“Working alongside state leaders, UCANE is helping to prioritize investment in critical water and utility infrastructure,” said Executive Director Joseph Nolan.
“Clean water projects provide enduring benefits to every person, business, and community in Massachusetts.”
