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.
Bill supports increasing transparency of where our tax dollars are being spent. The Revenue, Information and Accountability Act (H.3363/S.1722) filed by Rep. Connolly and Sen. Jehlen, would result in efforts to provide Massachusetts resident taxpayers with an annual summary and analytical breakdown of charts and graphs to make this information more accessible and comprehensible. One of the intentions of this bill is to increase civic engagement through demonstration of priorities as they relate to federal spending.
