The Jewish Community Relations Council of Greater Boston announced today that Representative Daniel E. Bosley (D-North Adams) is a recipient of the 2008 Massachusetts Association of Jewish Federations (MAJF)/Jewish Community Relations Council (JCRC) Legislative Achievement Award.
According to Nancy Kaufman, the Executive Director of the JCRC of Greater Boston, they have selected Rep. Bosley for his “leadership in social justice issues, and the partnership between Boston and Haifa which was included in the Life Sciences legislation.”
In June 2008, the legislature passed a bill to invest $1 billion to bolster the life sciences industry in the Commonwealth. One section of that charges the Massachusetts Life Sciences Center with collaborating with Israel to establish a trade and incubator facility in Israel to foster collaboration between the Commonwealth, the Government of the State of Israel, the Boston Haifa International Life Sciences Institute, and other organizations working with Israel.
Upon acceptance of the award, Representative Bosley said, “I am very humbled by this award. I am glad that I was able to assist the Jewish community thru legislation in the last legislative session. I look forward to working with the JCRC and MAJF in the upcoming session to continue support their causes.”
