Raised in Watertown, Massachusetts, Carmine was the first in his family to graduate college. He earned a bachelor’s degree from Tufts University and his juris doctor from Suffolk University Law School. For the past 30 years, Carmine has represented children, parents and small businesses and has regularly provided free legal services for adults and children in need through his law firm in Framingham. While he has largely curtailed his practice to focus on his work as a legislator, his career as a lawyer has given Carmine an understanding of the wide variety of challenges faced by residents and businesses in the MetroWest.
We must pass legislation this year to move Massachusetts toward our goal of a greenhouse gas free green energy future by 2050. One of the bills I co-sponsored is H3983, an Act to create a 2050 roadmap to a clean and thriving Commonwealth. This act, presented by Representative Joan Meschino of Hull, lays out a roadmap for Massachusetts to achieve net zero carbon emissions by 2050 with milestones to measure our progress along the way and protections for environmental justice communities.
