Architects Voice Strong Support for Climate Bill & Opt-In Net Zero Stretch Code The BSA strongly supports the Climate Bill. In partnership with AIA MA, a letter was recently sent to Governor Baker. As we wait for Governor Baker to respond we must also be ready to advocate for the Climate Bill and especially the net zero code provisions. If this goes back to the legislators or gets vetoed, AIA MA and its local chapters will be looking to membership to share their support by reaching out to their state legislators.

This is the first time a Black-owned architecture firm has ever received the award in the AIA's 58 years of conducting the annual recognition. BSA News Feb 04, 2021
