Ahold also received $507.1 million in tax breaks over the past two years. Union contract negotiations have been an ongoing point of contention since talks began on Jan. 14. The employees’ prior contract expired on Feb. 23. Therefore, for the fi rst time in three decades, 31,000 Stop & Shop employees left their jobs on April 11 and began picketing. “Instead of a contract that recognizes the value and hard work that our members provide every day, Stop & Shop has only proposed drastic cuts,” UFCW representatives said in a written statement, adding that self-checkout kiosks continue to replace front end associates. “The hard-working men and women at stores in Connecticut, Massachusetts and Rhode Island are standing together to tell Stop & Shop that it is time to do the right thing. They have earned and deserve a good job that allows them to do what they do best: provide the very best customer service for New England communities.” UFCW representatives said Stop & Shop is proposing a dramatic increase in the cost of health insurance over the next three years. In addition, monthly pension benefits would be slashed by 32 percent, impacting recently hired full-time employees, while pay increases for part-time employees would be less than two percent.

Northeast Metro Tech is operating out of a more than 50-year-old building that requires educational, capital and maintenance improvements. The MSBA – a state agency that works with communities to support educationally-appropriate, flexible, sustainable and cost-effective public school facilities – invited Northeast Metro Tech into the feasibility study phase to explore potential solutions to identified problems. During the feasibility study phase, Northeast and the MSBA will determine a project manager and designer to conduct a study of the current building. Once the study is completed, Northeast will then apply to the MSBA’s building project reimbursement grant program. “We’re thrilled to have been invited by the MSBA into the feasibility study phase for our building project,” Superintendent DiBarri said. “Our hope is that we will be able to construct a new building that will better meet the demands of 21st-century learning.”

Page 6 THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – Friday, April 19, 2019 Tide softball begins conference season with a win over Revere Everett takes on Somerville in the home opener at Glendale on Monday By Joe Mitchell T he Everett High School girls’ softball team (21) dropped a 6-4 decision to non-league host Boston Latin Academy late last week on April 11 at the Northeastern University Playgrounds. Pitcher Celeste Fuccillo started the game in the circle for the Crimson Tide, and proceeded to go six innings that resulted in fi ve hits, one walk and only three earned runs. She fanned fi ve batters. The Tide scored the first one of the game in the top of the fi rst, when Veronica Bento reached on a wild throw to fi rst, which enabled her to stroll into second base. Maddy Duraes then bunted her to third before she scored on an error off the bat of Kaylee Nearen. Boston Latin scored twice in the third to take the lead. But in the fourth, Everett got it right back, and then some. Ariana Garay started it off with a single and scored on a triple hit by Maddy Smith, who also came home on a fi elder’s choice to give her Everett teammates the lead, once again. But Boston Latin didn’t waste any time recapturing the lead in the home half of the fourth. After a couple of Everett errors set up the rally, Boston Latin made them pay for it with a three-run homer. They added another insurance run in the fi fth for good measure that was unearned, as well. “This was not the team we know,” said Coach Stacy Poste-Schiavo. “They are so much more capable of hitting, and we fell short of that. The errors we made cost us runs, which is never good when the off ense is not on.” “Celeste did a great job in her debut as a starting pitcher for the Crimson Tide,” added the coach. But the Tide bounced back nicely on April 16 when they defeated host Revere, 8-3. Fuccillo went the distance in the circle to record her fi rst Everett varsity win. In seven innings, she whiff ed six while allowing two earned runs on two walks and fi ve hits. The Tide virtually put this game out of reach right away in the fi rst inning with six runs. Nearen doubled in both Haley Oteri and Duraes to ignite the attack. Smith then earned a walk before Garay singled in Nearen. Elizabeth Peach followed with a double, driving home Smith and Garay, and she eventually scored on a single by Ashley Fitzgerald. Revere scored two in the third, but only one was earned to spoil the shutout bid. The Patriots were credited with their fi nal run of the game in the fi fth. The Tide tacked on their fi - nal two runs of the game in the seventh. Duraes walked, and Nearen singled to begin the threat. Ashley Yebba then ran for Nearen. Both runners moved up a base on a passed ball, setting the stage for Peach, whose two-out double brought them home. “I am beyond ecstatic for these girls,” said Poste-Schiavo. “They were fi red up all week for this game. We have always had close games with Revere, but we wanted this, and it showed.” “Celeste did an amazing job [in the circle], and the off ense was on fi re right from the start. We did make a few errors, but we also made the right plays when they had runners on base, stopping them from scoring,” added the coach. The Everett girls will now welcome Somerville to town for the home opener at Glendale Park on Monday, April 22, starting at 4 p.m. The Tide will then play under the lights at Glendale on Wednesday, April 24, against Lynn English, starting at 7 p.m., before they head to Salem to play the Witches on April 26 at 4 p.m.
THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – Friday, April 19, 2019 Page 7 Grand Opening! Magnolia Dental Tide baseball wins home opener over conference rival Revere By Joe Mitchell T he Everett High School baseball team (1-1), coached by Joe Lento, had to wait around like everybody else before they could begin playing the real games. Scrimmages and practices can be pretty tiresome, as the teams get ready for the regular season. With the new delayed start to the season that was implemented last year by the Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association (MIAA) to avoid postponements because of snow-covered fi elds, the Crimson Tide still had to wait a few extra days as a result of rainy days. But last week, it was time to play ball against host Winchester. The Sachems topped the local nine, 5-2, but the Everett boys bounced right back to beat Revere in the home opener at Glendale Park, 16-2, on April 16. Everett pitcher Evan Mallard went 5.1-innings against Winchester, and he gave up six walks and fi ve runs, while whiffi ng nine. Jonathan Fitzgerald and Brandon Gibbs accounted for the Everett offense with run-producing singles. “This was a good opening day game,” said Lento afterwards. “But we gave a good Winchester team too many free chances, and it ended up costing us in the long run.” But it was an entirely diff erent story several days later in the home opener versus Revere on Patriots Day. Mallard was on the mound again, and he pitched five innings, but this time he picked up the win. Michael Sullivan threw the fi nal two in relief to seal the deal. It was a total team eff ort on offense. From one through nine, the Tide hitters effectively sprayed the ball safely all over the fi eld. Alex Brown executed a suicide squeeze perfectly to score Fitzgerald to help ignite the all-out attack in the home half of the fourth inning that also included a tworun double by Jared Corbett. The Tide took on the always formidable Lynn Classical Rams in Lynn on April 17 (after press deadline), before getting ready for a game at Somerville’s Trum Field against the Highlanders on Monday, April 22, starting at 4 p.m. PREMIER CHECKING 1.25 on balances up to $25,000 Mobile Banking, People Pay and Check Deposit Online Banking, Bill Pay and e-Statements 800.657.3272 EBSB.com *Annual Percentage Yield (APY) as of 3/21/19.

Page 12 THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – Friday, April 19, 2019 SAVVY SENIOR | FROM PAGE 8 Mail Them Costco, Rite Aid and CVS pharmacies sell postage-paid envelopes for customers to mail any prescription, including opioids and over-thecounter medications, to a disposal facility. Throw Them Out If mailing them in or getting to one of the drop-off sites is not an option, you can dispose of them yourself, but do so carefully. The Food and Drug Administration recommends taking the medications out of their original bottles and putting them in a sealable plastic bag with an undesirable substance like coffee grounds, dirt or kitty litter. Then seal the plastic bag and throw it in the trash. This will make the medication less appealing to children, pets or other people who may fi sh through your trash. But don’t do this with dangerous drugs, such as opioids, which can be abused. For these, the FDA says fl ushing them down the toilet is OK. But trace amounts of drugs can end up in the water supply so this should be done only as a last resort. To see the FDA list of medications that should be fl ushed when they are no longer needed, go to FDA.gov and type “fl ush list” into the search box. Or, another option is to purchase some medication disposal bags like the Medsaway Medication Disposal System. These are carbon pouches that are designed to neutralize all medication including narcotics, liquid medication, transdermal patches and controlled substances so you can just add water, and toss them in the trash. You can fi nd medication disposal bags at some local pharmacies or online at Amazon.com for around $15. You’ll also want to make sure to scratch out all your mom’s personal information on the empty medicine bottles or other packaging before throwing it away to protect her identity and privacy. If you have other questions about proper drug disposal, talk to your pharmacist. Send your senior questions to: Savvy Senior, P.O. Box 5443, Norman, OK 73070, or visit SavvySenior.org.

REMOVE CAP ON WELFARE BENEFITS FOR KIDS (H 3594) House 155-1, overrode Gov. Charlie Baker’s veto of a bill that repeals the current law that denies an additional $100 in welfare benefi ts to children conceived while—or soon after— the family began receiving welfare benefi ts or, if they had received family welfare benefi ts in the past. The law was adopted in 1995 as part of a welfare reform package that was aimed at discouraging families already receiving public support from having more children. The veto now goes to the Senate which will likely override it at which point the cap will be offi cially repealed. In his veto letter, Baker said that "eliminating this cap should be accompanied by other reforms to the welfare system designed to align the eligibility determination with federal standards and support recipients as they return to work.” “[We should] allow an applicant seeking benefi ts to disregard the value of a single car, so as to protect the family’s access to transportation, including for BUYER1 Beacon Hill Roll Call By Bob Katzen job-seeking, without disqualifying them from receiving benefi ts,” said Baker. “My budget proposal [also] ensures that homeless families would no longer see a benefi t reduction for accessing temporary shelter.” Baker also noted that his proposal would require that adult Supplemental Security Income (SSI) be counted in the eligibility calculation for welfare applicants. “This … would treat SSI the same as other sources of benefi t income—like veterans or retirement, survivors’ benefi ts and disability insurance benefi ts—that are already counted in determining eligibility and benefit level under welfare,” concluded the governor. Supporters of the repeal said that there are some 8,700 children who currently fall under the cap in the Bay State. These families are barred from receiving an additional $100 a month to help support that child. They said there are no facts to back up the charge that families are having more children in order to get the additional $100. “Proud that today the House voted 155-1 to override Gov. Baker’s veto to #LiftTheCap for the second time,” said the bill’s sponsor Rep. Marjorie Decker (D-Cambridge), Chair of the Committee on Mental Health, Substance Use and Recovery on her Facebook page. “Our message to the 8,700 MA kids living in poverty is clear: you are worthy of the support your siblings receive.” “I believe the governor is correct that we need to put reforms in this ever-growing account,” said Rep. Colleen Garry (D-Dracut), the only member who did not vote to override the veto. “We need to remember the middle-class people we represent. At some point, enough is enough. I personally BUYER2 have friends who would have loved to have more children, but they knew they could not aff ord the cost of raising additional children. There needs to be responsibility and accountability amongst individuals in the commonwealth.” (A “Yes” vote is for lifting the cap. A “No” vote is against lifting it.) Rep. Joseph McGonagle Yes RULES FOR HOUSE BUDGET DEBATE (H 3799) House 127-30, approved a set of Democratic leadership-sponsored rules to be followed when the House considers the $42.7 billion fi scal 2020 state budget beginning on Monday, April 22. Provisions include requiring all amendments to be fi led online by Friday, April 12 and any proposed tax hikes or reductions to be considered early in the process. The rules also prohibit any members from off ering amendments related to gambling or sports betting. Several Republican attempts to amend the rules failed on voice votes without a roll call. An amendment to give representatives until April 16 instead of April 12 to fi le was defeated, as was an amendment making it harder to ship off budget amendments to a study committee instead of voting on the amendment itself. Supporters said these rules are fair and responsible and will help make the budget debate go smoothly. They noted the House has adopted many reforms over the years to make the process more transparent. Opponents said the rules include several provisions that are anti-democratic and weaken the input of individual members. They noted legislators should have more time to fi le budget amendments and review complicated consolidatBasneet, Sandeep Krone, Katie A Araia, Solomon G Clark, Amanda Balboni, Elisa Yohannes, Hadas H Pence, Isaac Rivera, Cesar Van, Kieu H Leduc, Kyle Aguiar, Maria SELLER2 Rivera, Meghan ed amendments which are often voted on before members can fi nish reviewing them. (A “Yes” vote is for the rules. A “No” vote is against the rules.) Rep. Joseph McGonagle Yes ALLOW AMENDMENTS ON GAMBLING AND SPORT BETTING (H 3799) House 31-126, rejected a Republican proposal to allow amendments proposing online wagering, online lottery or sports betting to be allowed on the fl oor for debate and a vote. Supporters said sports betting can be a great revenue source for the state and argued that debating and voting on it should not be forbidden and delayed. They noted the state is already losing sports betting revenue to neighboring states. Opponents said the issue is too important and complicated to be dealt with in a state budget. They argued the bill will be considered as a separate piece of legislation soon and there will be public hearings. They noted that some states rushed into sports betting and are not doing well with it. (A “Yes” vote is for allowing amendments on online wagering, online lottery and sports betting. A “No” vote is against it.) Rep. Joseph McGonagle No ALLOW ONE HOUR TO READ CONSOLIDATED BUDGET AMENDMENTS (H 3799) House 31-126, rejected a Republican proposal that would increase from 30 minutes to one hour the period given to legislators to read any proposed consolidated amendment to the House budget prior to debate and a vote on it. The consolidated amendment system works as follows: Individual representatives fi le dozens of amendments on the same general subject matters including local aid, social services and public safety. They are then invited to “subject meetings” in Room 348 where they pitch their amendments to Democratic leaders who then draft lengthy, consolidated amendments that include some of the individual representatives’ amendments while excluding others. The House then approves the consolidated amendment. Supporters of the one-hour rule said these amendments are often up to 30 pages long. They said that this system is anti-democratic and results in members voting on something that they have not even read. Opponents of the one-hour rule said the current 30-minute rule has worked well. (A “Yes” vote is for allowing one hour. A “No” vote is against allowing it.) Rep. Joseph McGonagle No HOW LONG WAS LAST WEEK'S SESSION? Beacon Hill Roll Call tracks the length of time that the House and Senate were in session each week. Many legislators say that legislative sessions are only one aspect of the Legislature's job and that a lot of important work is done outside of the House and Senate chambers. They note that their jobs also involve committee work, research, constituent work and other matters that are important to their districts. Critics say that the Legislature does not meet regularly or long enough to debate and vote in public view on the thousands of pieces of legislation that have been fi led. They note that the infrequency and brief length of sessions are misguided and lead to irresponsible late-night sessions and a mad rush to act on dozens of bills in the days immediately preceding the end of an annual session. During the week of April 8-12, the House met for a total of four hours and 13 minutes while the Senate met for a total of 40 minutes. Mon.

Page 22 THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – Friday, April 19, 2019 STOP & SHOP | FROM PAGE 2 Despite being a regular Shop & Shop customer, State Sen. Sal DiDomenico said he will take his business elsewhere until a deal is reached. “Once again, we have another corporate giant who refuses to treat its employees with dignity and respect,” he said. “I am proud to support Stop & Shop workers in their fi ght for fair wages, affordable health care and a dependable retirement. I will continue to stand with them in this fi ght and urge everyone to respect their picket line.” U.S. Sen. Elizabeth Warren stood on the picket lines in Somerville. “These giant companies think they can knock unions back, but what they have to understand is that unions are here to stay,” she said. “Unions will fi ght back; you stay in the fi ght until you win.” Representatives from Stop & Shop maintained that under the proposed contract, the company would cover 92 percent of each health insurance premium. They have also guaranteed full funding for the UFCW’s defi ned benefi t pension fund as well as pay increases for all associates. Therefore, company representatives said they are “disappointed that the UFCW chose to order a work stoppage in an attempt to disrupt service at our stores.” “Stop & Shop has proposed a good and reasonable off er to our union.” Company representatives said the contract proposed by the UFCW would significantly increase Stop & Shop’s annual expenditures. “This would make our company less competitive in the mostly non-union New England food retail marketplace,” they said. Deliveries have also come to a standstill as the drivers are unionized as well. As a result, one customer at the Malden Stop & Shop said, expired meat products were still being sold. However, company spokeswoman Jennifer Brogan denied the accusation. “Meat that is not sold on shelf is being frozen prior to its expiration and donated to our regional food bank partners as well as local food pantries,” she said. As the strike dragged on, Stop & Shop President Mark McGowan reached out to his customers in an April 16 letter. “We are committed to resolving our labor negotiations as quickly as possible so that our employees can return to their jobs and we can get back to better serving you and the community,” he said. “Be assured, we are working around the clock to get back to business as usual.” At press time, the UFCW and Stop & Shop had not reached an agreement.
