Barber Poles and Grocery Stickers; Maura Healey Pulling Red Tape Off Regulatory Codes
The Healey administration is cutting or amending a quarter of all regulations under the oversight of the public-facing Massachusetts Office of Consumer Affairs and Business Regulation, an effort that officials say is intended to save businesses time and money.
Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey shreds a piece of paper that reads "Must be filed on paper" as an example of the type of regulation her administration is cutting for businesses at a press conference at the State House on Wednesday, May 28, 2025. Under the updated regulations, banks and insurance companies will no longer need to file documents on paper.Photo by State House News
