UMV MRC Director Sandy Collins was one of the four speakers invited to testify at the Massachusetts State House in June to urge the passage of Liability Bill 1155: An Act Relative to Public Health Volunteer Responders. The bill would cover MRC volunteers who are activated for duty to the same extent as if they were employees of the Commonweath of MA.
