THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, MAy 22, 2026 Page 25 BEACON | FROM PAGE 24 amendment, did not respond to repeated requests by Beacon Hill Roll Call asking him why he filed it. Sen. Cindy Friedman (D-Arlington), the chief opponent of the amendment, did not respond to repeated requests by Beacon Hill Roll Call asking her why she opposed it. (A “Yes” vote is for the amendment which would require the federal funds to be used by sheriffs and the Department of Corrections. A “No” vote is against the amendment and supports the funds being used to help legal representation for immigrants and refugees.) Sen. Sal DiDomenico No INCLUDE ALL CRIMINAL OFFENSES (S 3072) — Senate 7-32, rejected an amendment to a section of the bill that allows a law enforcement official to request information about a person’s citizenship or immigration status when the officer has an articulable, case-specific reason to believe the person’s citizenship or immigration status is directly material to a list of specific criminal offenses the person has committed. The amendment would allow more criminal offenses to be considered. Amendment supporters said the amendment is a fair one that would broaden the provision and make it apply to all criminal offenses. Amendment opponents said the bill applies to all felonies and said the amendment is not necessary. Sen. Bruce Tarr (R-Gloucester), the sponsor of the amendment, did not respond to repeated requests by Beacon Hill Roll Call asking him why he filed it. Sen.

Sal DiDomenico No VERIFY THAT AID RECIPIENTS ARE IN THE COUNTRY LEGALLY (S 3072) — Senate 5-34, rejected an amendment that would require any agency, organization or other entity receiving public funds for the purpose of providing legal representation in matters involving federal immigration law, to develop and implement mechanisms to ensure that no funds are provided to help an individual not lawfully present in the United States. “I voted ‘Yes’ because state-funded legal aid programs should prioritize assistance for individuals who are legally present in the United States,” said Sen. Patrick O’Connor (R-Weymouth). ”This amendment adds an important verification safeguard to ensure public resources are used as intended and with transparency.” Amendment opponents said this would unfairly take away the ability for nonprofits to represent people who are lawfully here in the country but can’t afford to pay a private lawyer to help ~ LEGAL NOTICE ~ NOTICE OF MORTGAGEE’S SALE OF REAL ESTATE By virtue and in execution of the Power of Sale contained in a certain mortgage given by 126 Central Ave LLC, to Raymond C.
