In May 2005, Bill, graduated from Boston College and began working behind the scenes in the film and television industry. When Hurricane Katrina struck the Gulf Coast in September of 2005, Bill felt compelled to act. He knew if he could get there he could do something to help. What started as a two-week break from his job turned in to a two-year mission to assist underserved communities in Mississippi facing the aftermath of the worst natural disaster in U.S. history, and changed the course of his career.
Today’s minimum wage in Massachusetts of $11.00/hour leaves families unable to pay their bills, feed their families, and develop the self-reliance and resiliency that all residents long for and deserve. We need a living wage for ALL. Bill supports a $15 minimum wage in Massachusetts.
