Governor, Treasurer, and Attorney General Appoint Nurys Z. Camargo and Bruce Stebbins to The Cannabis Control Commission
Executives with Expertise in Oversight and Social Justice Issues Related to Regulated Industries to Join the Commission
BOSTON – Today, Governor Charlie Baker, Treasurer Deborah B. Goldberg and Attorney General Maura Healey announced the appointments of Nurys Z. Camargo and Bruce Stebbins to the Cannabis Control Commission (CCC). Per statute, two commissioners should be appointed by a majority vote of the Governor, Attorney General and Treasurer, one of whom should have professional experience in oversight or industry management, including commodities, production or distribution in a regulated industry; and one of whom should have a background in legal, policy or social justice issues related to a regulated industry. These appointees will serve a term of 5 years.
“Our administration is grateful to the Treasurer and Attorney General for their partnership on these appointments to the Cannabis Control Commission as we continue to work together to ensure the effective regulation and safety of the cannabis industry in Massachusetts,” said Governor Charlie Baker. “We are proud to appoint two highly qualified and experienced individuals to the CCC, and look forward to their contributions to the Commission. We also thank Commissioner Title for her service to the Commission.”
“I want to thank Commissioner Shaleen Title for her service to the Cannabis Control Commission. We are appreciative of the time and commitment she has shown to ensure fairness and equity as the industry has evolved,” said State Treasurer Deborah B. Goldberg. “The appointments of Nurys Camargo, whose passion and focus has been on expanding opportunities for marginalized communities, and Bruce Stebbins, whose proven record and experience in managing in a state regulated environment, will positively impact the goals of the CCC. We look forward to working together and know that they will hit the ground running.”
“Commissioner Title has helped to advance social justice and promote equity in the developing cannabis industry and I would like to thank her for her service and dedication over the past three years,” said Attorney General Maura Healey. “Nurys Camargo and Bruce Stebbins each bring unique experience and knowledge to the Cannabis Control Commission and I am confident they’ll serve the people of our state well in these positions. Nurys has dedicated her career to social justice reform and will be integral in the Commission’s work to ensure equity and fairness in this industry. Bruce’s understanding of the regulatory process, experience in economic development, and commitment to government transparency will be a critical asset to the Commission’s mission to enable safe, equitable, and effective access to legal cannabis use in the Commonwealth.”
“I’m honored to be appointed as a Commissioner at the Cannabis Control Commission,” said Nurys Z. Camargo. “For the past decade I’ve committed my work to finding pathways for equity and empowerment for women and people of color within the Commonwealth. I look forward to continuing the inaugural Commission’s work to establish a safe and equitable cannabis industry in Massachusetts.”
"I am honored to join the team at the Cannabis Control Commission,” said Bruce Stebbins. “The opportunity to help fulfill the Commission's mission of creating employment and entrepreneurial opportunities across the state through this new industry is just one way I hope I can contribute. I thank the Governor, Attorney General and Treasurer for their confidence in my appointment."
Nurys Z. Camargo has served since 2013 as the Director of External Affairs in Massachusetts for AT&T. In this role, she works to foster positive relationships with the community, creating philanthropic funding opportunities and developing regional corporate social responsibility initiatives. Immediately prior to joining AT&T, she served as a Senior Policy Advisor at the Massachusetts Executive Office of Public Safety and Security. Ms. Camargo also served previously as Director of Community Relations for the Suffolk County District Attorney’s Office. In addition to her professional work, she currently serves on boards including United Way of Massachusetts Bay and Merrimack Valley’s Community Board, and Eastern Bank’s Board of Ambassadors.

Ms. Camargo earned a Master’s of Public Administration at Baruch College as a National Urban Fellow, and earned her Bachelor’s Degree in Criminal Justice from Mount Ida College.
