Rep. Scibak, the House chair of the joint committee on this bill, got back to me immediately after I sent comments in favor of the pro-Tesla bill. I'd strongly encourage others to contact him, too.
We have some work to do, bareyb- it's hard to know. We'll keep you posted.
Another news link here, Laura and Ed are quoted!
Charged hearing on electric car company Tesla, which has location in Natick - Framingham, MA - The MetroWest Daily News
Sweet!
Nice to see an editorial in support of Tesla
From the MetroWest Daily News
"We think it’s simpler than that. Markets should be open to innovative products and innovative business models. State laws that serve no public purpose other than protect the interests of entrenched industries should be repealed.

I think the obvious next steps are:
(1) Thank-you notes from those of us who testified to the committee members at the hearing. Sadly, the list I was promised by an assistant at the hearing never materialized. I'll have to track it down.
(2) Get an e-mail campaign going again from Massachusetts Tesla residents to their representatives and senators. Maybe also email from non-MA folks, although it might just have volume value rather than hey-those-are-my-voters value.
I'm happy to start pushing these things along, but I'm afraid it'll have to be after December 3. I'm all tied up from now until then with family stuff. If anyone else wants to start pushing these things, please feel free! Or... any other steps you think wise.
Thanks,
Alan
