Employers could be exposed to significant civil and criminal penalties if the Court holds everyday use of websites potentially violates the Act.<\/p>                <a class=\"arrow-link link\" href=\"https:\/\/bostonchamber.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/SJC-13542-GBCC-Amicus-Brief-AdTech.pdf\"><span class=\"icon\"><\/span>Read the Amicus Brief<\/a>\r\n                <\/div>\r\n            <\/div>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"modal fade video-modal transition_remove\" id=\"videomodalra_id_1650980709\" tabindex=\"-1\" aria-labelledby=\"videoModalLabel\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\r\n<div class=\"modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered modal-lg\">\r\n    <div class=\"modal-content\">\r\n        <button type=\"button\" class=\"slick-lightbox-close\" tabindex=\"0\" data-bs-dismiss=\"modal\" aria-label=\"Close\"><\/button>\r\n        <div class=\"modal-body ratio ratio-16x9\" >\r\n                    <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n  jQuery(document).ready(function($){\r\n\t  \r\n\t   $(\".text_media_image\").focus(function() {\r\n            console.log('in');\t\t\t\r\n        });\r\n      \/** Empty the modal body if the modal is closed so that it stops playing **\/\r\n    \/\/   $(\".video-modal\").on('hide.bs.modal', function(){\r\n    \/\/         $(\".modal-body\").html('');\r\n    \/\/     });\r\n        \r\n        \/** add feature video embed to the modal body on opening the modal **\/\r\n        \/\/ $(\".video-modal\").on('show.bs.modal', function(){\r\n        \/\/     $(\".modal-body\").html('');\r\n        \/\/ });\r\n\r\n \r\n    $(\"#ra_id_1650980709 .media-lightbox\").slickLightbox({\r\n        src: 'src',\r\n        itemSelector: '.item img',\r\n        caption: 'caption',\r\n    });\r\n\r\n        \r\n    $(function() {\r\n        $('.popup-youtube, .popup-vimeo').magnificPopup({\r\n            disableOn: 700,\r\n            type: 'iframe',\r\n            mainClass: 'mfp-fade',\r\n            removalDelay: 160,\r\n            preloader: false,\r\n            fixedContentPos: false\r\n        });\r\n    });\r\n  });\r\n<\/script>\r\n\r\n\r\n\n\n<div id=\"ra_id_1650980709\"  class=\"section media-text \">\r\n    <div class=\"container\">\r\n        <div class=\"row right\">\r\n            <div class=\"col-lg-6\">\r\n                <div class=\"media-wrapper\">\r\n                    <div id=\"media-text-desktop\" class=\"media-lightbox\">\r\n        <div class=\"item  ratio ratio-16x9\" tabindex=\"0\" ><img decoding=\"async\" tabindex=\"0\" data-src=\"https:\/\/bostonchamber.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Policy-Amicus-Advisory-Board.png\" alt=\"Policy - Amicus Advisory Board\" class=\"media-img lazyload\" data-caption=\"\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1600px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1600\/900;\"><\/div>\r\n        <\/div>                    <div id=\"media-text-mobile\" class=\"media-lightbox\">\r\n        <div class=\"item  ratio ratio-16x9\" tabindex=\"0\" ><img decoding=\"async\" tabindex=\"0\" data-src=\"https:\/\/bostonchamber.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Policy-Amicus-Advisory-Board.png\" alt=\"Policy - Amicus Advisory Board\" class=\"media-img lazyload\" data-caption=\"\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 1600px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 1600\/900;\"><\/div>\r\n        <\/div>                <\/div>\r\n            <\/div>\r\n            <div class=\"col-lg-6\">\r\n                <div class=\"text-wrapper\">\r\n                    <h3 tabindex=\"0\" >Chamber Leads in Question of Surtax Ballot, Filing Brief Supporting Plaintiffs in Anderson v.

Given the magnitude of the proposed constitutional amendments, and the prolonged process needed to correct it, the Chamber argues that all voters must understand that the Legislature retains full discretion over how additional funds would be spent.<\/p>                <a class=\"arrow-link link\" href=\"https:\/\/bostonchamber.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/Anderson-v.-Healey-GBCC-Amicus-Brief.pdf\"><span class=\"icon\"><\/span>Read the Amicus Brief<\/a>\r\n                <\/div>\r\n            <\/div>\r\n        <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"modal fade video-modal transition_remove\" id=\"videomodalra_id_1650980709\" tabindex=\"-1\" aria-labelledby=\"videoModalLabel\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\r\n<div class=\"modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered modal-lg\">\r\n    <div class=\"modal-content\">\r\n        <button type=\"button\" class=\"slick-lightbox-close\" tabindex=\"0\" data-bs-dismiss=\"modal\" aria-label=\"Close\"><\/button>\r\n        <div class=\"modal-body ratio ratio-16x9\" >\r\n                    <\/div>\r\n    <\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n  jQuery(document).ready(function($){\r\n\t  \r\n\t   $(\".text_media_image\").focus(function() {\r\n            console.log('in');\t\t\t\r\n        });\r\n      \/** Empty the modal body if the modal is closed so that it stops playing **\/\r\n    \/\/   $(\".video-modal\").on('hide.bs.modal', function(){\r\n    \/\/         $(\".modal-body\").html('');\r\n    \/\/     });\r\n        \r\n        \/** add feature video embed to the modal body on opening the modal **\/\r\n        \/\/ $(\".video-modal\").on('show.bs.modal', function(){\r\n        \/\/     $(\".modal-body\").html('');\r\n        \/\/ });\r\n\r\n \r\n    $(\"#ra_id_1650980709 .media-lightbox\").slickLightbox({\r\n        src: 'src',\r\n        itemSelector: '.item img',\r\n        caption: 'caption',\r\n    });\r\n\r\n        \r\n    $(function() {\r\n        $('.popup-youtube, .popup-vimeo').magnificPopup({\r\n            disableOn: 700,\r\n            type: 'iframe',\r\n            mainClass: 'mfp-fade',\r\n            removalDelay: 160,\r\n            preloader: false,\r\n            fixedContentPos: false\r\n        });\r\n    });\r\n  });\r\n<\/script>\r\n\r\n\r\n\n\n<div id=\"ra_id_1647353976\"  class=\"section media-text \">\r\n    <div class=\"container\">\r\n        <div class=\"row left\">\r\n            <div class=\"col-lg-6\">\r\n                <div class=\"media-wrapper\">\r\n                    <div id=\"media-text-desktop\" class=\"media-lightbox\">\r\n        <div class=\"item  ratio ratio-16x9\" tabindex=\"0\" ><img decoding=\"async\" tabindex=\"0\" data-src=\"https:\/\/bostonchamber.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Amicus-Courthouse-image.png\" alt=\"Courthouse image\" class=\"media-img lazyload\" data-caption=\"\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 677px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 677\/497;\"><\/div>\r\n        <\/div>                    <div id=\"media-text-mobile\" class=\"media-lightbox\">\r\n        <div class=\"item  ratio ratio-16x9\" tabindex=\"0\" ><img decoding=\"async\" tabindex=\"0\" data-src=\"https:\/\/bostonchamber.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/03\/Amicus-Courthouse-image.png\" alt=\"Courthouse image\" class=\"media-img lazyload\" data-caption=\"\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 677px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 677\/497;\"><\/div>\r\n        <\/div>                <\/div>\r\n            <\/div>\r\n            <div class=\"col-lg-6\">\r\n                <div class=\"text-wrapper\">\r\n                    <h3 tabindex=\"0\" > The Courts Recognize Critical Business Priorities<\/h3>\r\n                    <p tabindex=\"0\" >With the guidance of the Chamber\u2019s Amicus Advisory Board brief, the S.J.C. affirmed the lower court\u2019s decision in Rosenberg v. JP Morgan Chase &amp; Co. The Chamber\u2019s brief argued that the trial court\u2019s decision was a fair, clear, and consistent interpretation of the Massachusetts False Claims Act.    One aspect of the Commonwealth\u2019s competitiveness is maintaining consistency with federal law and other states on issues that can negatively impact businesses. If Massachusetts adopts a policy that is an outlier and exposes businesses in the Commonwealth to higher litigation risks and costs than other states, it risks losing out on future growth. Affirming the lower court\u2019s decision keeps Massachusetts competitive and an attractive place to do business. <\/p>                <a class=\"arrow-link link\"
