Page 2 THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, AugusT 26, 2022 DiDomenico, colleagues celebrate signing of landmark mental health reform New law makes critical strides to ensure equitable access to mental health O n August 10, Governor Charlie Baker signed into law An Act addressing barriers to care for mental health – also known as the Mental Health ABC Act – comprehensive legislation championed by Senator Sal DiDomenico and his colleagues to reform of the way mental health care is delivered in Massachusetts, with the goal of ensuring that people get the mental health care they need when they need it. The Mental Health ABC Act (now Chapter 177 of the Massachusetts General Laws) is driven by the recognition that mental health is as important as physical health for every resident of the Commonwealth and should be treated as such. The law includes a wide variety of reforms to ensure equitable access to mental health care and remove barriers to care by supporting the behavioral health workforce. “For far too long in our state and across the nation, mental health has not received the attention it deserves, making this care too expensive or too burdensome for many Massachusetts residents to access,” said Senator DiDomenico, who is the Assistant Majority Leader of the Massachusetts Senate. “This law will transform our mental health care system and ensure people can access and aff ord mental health care just like other forms of medical care. I am thrilled to see this historic mental health reform signed into law and I would like to thank Senate President Spilka, Senator Julian Cyr, SenANGELO’S FULL SERVICE Regular Unleaded $3.819 Mid Unleaded $4.359 Super $4.739 Diesel Fuel $4.839 44 Years of Excellence!! 1978-2022 KERO $8.99 DEF $4.75 9 DYED ULS $4.499 9 HEATING OIL 24-Hour Burner Service Call for Current Price!

Spilka (D-Ashland). “We all deserve to have access to the mental health care we need, when we need it, and I am thrilled to see comprehensive mental and behavioral health care reform signed into law. I’d like to thank my colleagues in the Senate—especially Senators Cyr and Friedman—Speaker Mariano and our partners in the House, and Governor Baker, as well as the countless individuals, families, advocates, providers and others who have stood up for the idea that mental health is just as important as physical health, and to everyone who has fought for mental health care reform in Massachusetts and never gave up.” Below are features of the new law: • Guaranteeing annual mental health wellness exams: mandates insurance coverage for an annual mental health wellness exam, comparable to an annual physical. • Enforcing mental health parity laws: provides the state with better tools to implement Sal DiDomenico State Senator and enforce parity laws by creating a clear structure for state agencies to receive and investigate parity complaints and ensure their timely resolution. • Initiatives to address Emergency Department boarding: creates online portals that provide access to real-time data on youths and adults seeking mental health and substance use services and includes a search function that allows health care providers to easily fi nd open beds using several criteria; requires the Health Policy Commission (HPC) to prepare and publish a report every three years on the status of pediatric behavioral health as the youth boarding crisis is particularly acute; requires the Center for Health Information and Analysis (CHIA) to report on behavioral health needs; updates the Expedited Psychiatric Inpatient Admissions (EPIA) protocol and creates an expedited evaluation and stabilization process for patients under 18. • 988 implementation and 911 expansion: increases access to on-demand behavioral health care through the implementation of the nationwide 988 hotline that will provide 24/7 suicide prevention and behavioral health crisis services – and expands 911 to bridge the gap until 988 is implemented. • Extreme risk protection orders (ERPOs): initiates a public awareness campaign on ERPOs (also known as “red fl ag laws”) that limit access to guns for people at risk of hurting themselves or others. • Reimbursing mental health providers equitably: requires an equitable rate fl oor for evaluation and management services that is consistent with primary care. • Reforming medical necessity and prior authorization requirements: mandates coverage and eliminates prior authorization for mental health acute treatment and stabilization services for adults and children and ensures that if a health insurance company intends to change its medical necessity guidelines, the new guidelines must be easily accessible by consumers on the health insurance company’s website. • Creating a standard release form: directs the development of a standard release form for exchanging confidential mental health and substance use disorder information to facilitate access to treatment by patients with multiple health care providers.

Page 8 THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, AugusT 26, 2022 Commuters across region navigate Orange Line shutdown shuttle bus service, local police traffic details combining to ease inconvenience, disruption to personal schedules By Steve Freker T he “Great Unknown” – aka “The Orange Line Shutdown of 2022”– plopped down in the middle of Malden on Monday, and the results and reactions since have been immediate and expected. Inconvenient? Of course. The manufacture of a whole new army of commuters turned clock-watchers? Most definitely. Time and transportation are innately connected – always. The proverbial “more questions than answers” syndrome? Well, some may take it that way, but not entirely so. The MBTA announced the one-month shutdown (August 19-September 19) earlier this month following a string of concerning safety incidents, including the death of a man on the Red Line and an Orange Line train that caught fire over the Mystic River. Federal officials are in the process of investigating the transit agency’s safety practices. MBTA and Massachusetts Department of Transportation officials have stated they believe their work crews can finish five years’ worth of repairs within the next four weeks. The $189 million project will replace thousands of feet of rail at Wellington Yard in Medford, crossovers that help trains switch directions, and signals at the Oak Grove and Malden Center Stations “to increase safety and reliability.” One of the key elements of both the rollout and then this week’s implementation of the Orange Line shutdown has been the provision of information of essentially every aspect of the unprecedented project. At this point, according to a multitude of online, print and televised media reports, the tens of thousands of daily “T” riders who are directly affected by the shutdown are well-informed as to the best way to get to their destinations. Here in Malden and in surrounding communities, there was a highly prioritized effort to get out information and ease the inconvenience and hardship in any way. Malden Mayor Gary Christenson was out at Malden’s two MBTA Orange Line Stations on Monday morning, the first commuter day of the shutdown, alongside Malden Police Chief Glenn Cronin. Both were handing out prepaid CharlieCards to cover the cost of the rides on the Commuter Rails. Also, in Malden, at both of the city’s two Orange Line Stations – Malden Center and Oak Grove – eight-hour manned police details are in effect, expediting both pedestrians getting across busy streets onto the shuttle buses and then safely waving the buses through traffic lights to save time. Both the City of Malden and the MBTA have Ridership Guides on their official websites. Malden’s website can be accessed at www.cityofmalden.org.

Accessible on that website are both an explanation of the ongoing project, “Building a Better T,” as well as the regular feature, “Trip Planner,” which features up-to-date information on how to go from one place to another destination. In addition to encouragements to use the Commuter Rail, the Green Line, regular MBTA buses or even more basic modes of transportation, such as bicycles, the main way of getting to riders’ destinations is provided by the “T” via shuttle buses.

According to a number of reports, the biggest negative about the Orange Line shutdown was the increased time of trips – anywhere – which was expected in advance. For example, a usual 26-29-minute trip from Malden Center to Government Center on the Orange Line is now 18-20 minutes longer – close to one hour – on the shuttle buses. Overall, according to comments in online reports and social media; however, other riders expressed gratitude over the conscientiousness and detail spent on assisting the T’s plans by local municipal and public safety officials. Mayor announces Brazil Flag Raising and Bicentennial Celebration Special to The Advocate LANDSCAPE & MASONRY CO. M Masonry - Asphalt ayor Carlo DeMaria and the City of Everett – in collaboration with City Councilor Stephanie Martins, the Brazilian Women’s Group and the Brazilian Consulate – are pleased to announce the Brazil Flag Raising and Bicentennial Celebration, which will be held on Monday, Sept. 12 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Everett City Hall between Church Street and Broadway. This year’s celebration will feature the Brazil flag being raised to fly high at City Hall. In addition to the flag raising, there will be festivities to celebrate Brazil’s bicentennial year, which is the country’s 200th year of independence. On Sept. 7, 1822, Brazil gained its independence from the former United Kingdom of Portugal, Brazil and the Algarves. To commemorate this important milestone, the City will be following up the flag raising with food, capoeira, singing and dancing to Grooversity and more in honor of the country’s bicentennial year. There will be plenty of refreshments from local Brazilian eateries available for all who attend the celebration. Mayor DeMaria and the City of Everett invite all residents to attend this special celebration of our Everett Brazilian community and the country of Brazil.

Page 14 THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, AugusT 26, 2022 Say nir Sa a y Senior Seni by Jim Miller What is an Annual Notice of Change? Dear Savvy Senior, Last year I received a “notice of change” letter from my Medicare provider. Should I expect another one this year, and what should I do with it? Medicare Rookie Dear Rookie, The letter you’re asking about is actually referred to as the Annual Notice of Change (or ANOC), which is a letter you receive from your Medicare Advantage or Medicare Part D prescription drug plan in late September. (People with only a Medigap plan don’t receive these because Medigap plans do not have benefi t changes from year to year). So yes, you should expect to receive another letter next month. The ANOC gives a summary of any changes in your plan’s costs and coverage that will take effect Jan. 1 of the next year. The ANOC is typically mailed with the plan’s “evidence of coverage,” which is a more comprehensive list of the plan’s costs and benefi ts for the upcoming year. You should review these notices to see if your plan will continue to meet your health care needs in 2023. If you are dissatisfi ed with any upcoming changes, you can make changes to your coverage during fall open enrollment, which runs from Oct. 15 to Dec. 7. Here are three types of changes to look for: Costs: If you have a Medicare Advantage plan, find out what you can expect to pay for services in 2023. Costs such as deductibles and copayments can change each year. For example, your plan may not have had a deductible in 2022, but it could have one in 2023. A deductible is the amount of money you owe out-of-pocket before your plan begins to cover your care. Another example is that your plan may increase the copayments you owe for visits to your primary care provider or specialists. Coverage: If you have an Advantage plan with prescription drug coverage check to see if your doctors, hospitals, and other health care providers and pharmacies will still be in network for 2023. You have the lowest out-of-pocket costs if you go to providers and pharmacies that are in your plan’s network. If you see an outof-network provider, your plan may not cover any of the cost of your care, leaving you to pay the cost outof-pocket. You should also contact your providers directly to confi rm that they will still be accepting your plan in the coming year. Drugs: If you have prescription drug coverage, look through the plan’s formulary, which is the list of drugs the plan covers. Formulary changes can happen from year to year, so make sure the medications you’re taking will be covered next year, and that they’re not moved to a higher tier which will aff ect your copay. If you see any changes that will increase your costs, you may want to select a diff erent drug plan that covers all of your medications. If the formulary is incomplete, or you do not see your drug(s) on the list, contact the plan directly to learn more. If you have not received an ANOC by the end of September, you should contact your Medicare Advantage Plan or Part D plan to request it. This notice can be very helpful in determining whether you should make any changes to your coverage during the fall open enrollment. Reading your ANOC can also prevent any surprises about your coverage in the new year. Shopping, comparing and enrolling in a new Medicare Advantage or Part D plan during the open enrollment period can easily be done online at Medicare’s Plan Finder Tool at Medicare.gov/ fi nd-a-plan. Or, if you don’t have a computer or Internet access, you can also call Medicare at 800633-4227 and they can help you out over the phone. Your State Health Insurance Assistance Program (SHIP), which provides free Medicare counseling, is also a great resource to help you make any changes. To fi nd a local SHIP counselor, visit ShipHelp.org or call 877-839-2675. Send your senior questions to: Savvy Senior, P.O. Box 5443, Norman, OK 73070, or visit SavvySenior.org.

The complaint also points to the motive behind Philbin and Resnek’s articles; to remove DeMaria from the mayor’s offi ce in order to further Philbin’s business and fi nancial interests in Everett including “contracts denied, favorable treatment to real estate interests they desired, and the right to taxpayer money used to purchase advertising in his newspaper.” According to the complaint, Resnek and the defendants knew that their stories were “fi ction” and “fabrication” after admitting as such in Resnek’s three depositions. The complaint points to Resnek’s admissions under oath of, that he, on behalf of the Leader-Herald Defendants: •“made up” and fabricated defamatory articles about Mr. DeMaria accusing him of criminal conduct knowing that they had no basis in fact and were, indeed, “fiction” and “BS;” • fabricated derogatory quotes about the Mayor which they falsely attributed to individuals who never said these things; • testifi ed falsely, under oath, over and over again about the existence of contemporaneous “notes” that, in fact, never existed at the time the articles about 43 Corey Street were published, but were instead manufactured after this lawsuit was fi led and after the defendants knew they had been requested to turn over notes of any conversations that supported these articles, committing a fraud on this Court, the public and Mr. DeMaria; •then spoliated those manufactured “notes” by repeatedly altering them on multiple occasions after the fact in order to make it appear that they were authentic evidence, thereby committing a further fraud upon the Court; and •attempted to “pressure” an individual whom they knew was suff ering from “dramatic” mental health problems into making statements that they hoped would harm Mr. DeMaria’s reputation. The complaint highlighted Matthew Philbin’s role in the newspaper’s weekly attack on the mayor. “Indeed, Defendant Matthew Philbin not only directed and controlled the newspaper, but these false stories were sent to Philbin-owned businesses to be reviewed, approved, and edited to conform with the Philbins’ interests before they were published.It is, indeed, the Leader Herald Defendants that, as the sworn admissions and documents show, constituted and constitute a corrupt enterprise.” The complaint further states that that the defendants not only committed “a remarkable fraud on this Court and the judicial process, but on the election process itself.” “The admissions on record and contemporaneous communications that this Court ordered the Leader Herald Defendants to produce establish that they, at a minimum, committed a fraud on the people of Everett, Massachusetts, by publishing story after story that they knew were fi ction, fraudulent and fabrications or, as Mr. Resnek actually admitted, “BS,” and that they did so because they regarded Mr. DeMaria, the Mayor of Everett, as unwilling to subsidize the Philbins’ business interests in Everett with taxpayer money, and other forms of favorable treatment at public expense,” according to the complaint. As an example, the attorneys cite Resnek’s admission that they, the Defendants, published defamatory stories in order to retaliate against the Mayor for his unwillingness to pay taxpayer monies to the Philbin insurance company for an insurance contract with the City, and for what they believed to be DeMaria’s unfavorable regulation of rooming houses and other housing units in Everett. During the 2021 election year, just before the primary, when DeMaria was running against Fred Capone and Gurley Adrian, Resnek admitted under oath that the newspaper planned to “drop bombs” on Mayor DeMaria by writing false and damaging articles accusing him of criminal conduct “of which they knew he was innocent,” in order to tilt the election and remove a mayor “that they believed was adverse to their fi nancial interests,” according to the complaint. Resnek also admitted to coordinating with DeMaria’s political adversaries “every day” about his plan to publish damaging articles about the mayor in advance of the primary and to ensure the opponent’s “message” was refl ected in the scurrilous articles. The “Wordsmith of Church St.”, in a further attempt to defame the mayor through his relationship with Boston Globe reporter Andrea Estes, hoped to have Estes pressure Sergio Cornelio, DeMaria’s partner in the Corey St. land deal which Resnek and Philbin tried to establish as corrupt through their articles, into coerce Cornelio into supporting Resnek’s false articles. Estes was told by Resnek to pressure Cornelio as he “was suff ering from severe mental health issues and was therefore susceptible to coercion by them,” according to the complaint. Estes off ered to give Resnek “credit” for helping her publish the articles. On one occasion, Estes asked Resnek for proof of the mayor’s “payoff ” from the Corey St. deal by the Everett Co-operative Bank which Resnek claimed made up a “Pocket LLC” to aid the mayor’s “criminal” activity. Resnek, as his custom, off ered nothing to the Globe reporter despite her press deadline. The complaint continues with numerous examples of the defendants’ longstanding hostility toward DeMaria, from the 1990’s as an Alderman when he butted heads with the Philbins’ over their rooming house issues to when Philbin began publishing the newspaper in 2017. Resnek would sum up his work and relationship with the Leader-Herald when he proclaimed in an email to a colleague; “Each week, 52 times a year, I invent the Leader Herald…the mayor is my enemy…It takes me two days away from important writing every week to create this (expletive).” It’s hard to argue against his proclamation. In another example of the defendants’ reckless and defamatory articles, Resnek publishes in March 24, 2022 claiming the mayor and others wrote racists emails and texts about the Irish, establishing the city as racist on many occasions, without any proof. With the headline, “Irish Humiliated in Racist E-Mail and Text Threads Shared by the Mayor, Others,” Resnek wrote: “The coming to light of anti-Irish expression of hate, Internet messages shared by the holder of the highest offi ce in the city with others… ‘(ExpleTESTIMONY | SEE PAGE 16

We know it has definitely been hot out there most of the past 10 weeks of summer, but we might have to scratch the word “long.” It seems like yesterday that the teams were finishing double-plays on the baseball and softball fields, scoring goals in lacrosse or spiking volleyballs. How did the calendar flip so quickly? But they are tossing footballs and running sprints starting today as the fall sports season officially gets underway. Football kicked it off with two days of extra conditioning under MIAA guidelines. Golf was also allowed to begin its preseason today under newly adopted MIAA guidelines.

This week, Beacon Hill Roll Call reports local senators’ roll call attendance records for the 2022 session. The Senate has held 146 roll calls so far in the 2022 session. Beacon Hill Roll Call tabulates the number of roll calls on which each senator voted and then calculates that number as a percentage of the total roll call votes held. That percentage is the number referred to as the roll call attendance record. Greater Boston League in the opening round of the Division 1 North playoffs. Everett High football opens its 10-game, 2022 regular season with a highly anticipated game with Xaverian Bros. from the Catholic Conference on Friday, September 9 at 7:00 p.m. at Everett Stadium. In addition to Xaverian, Everett has also added BC High to its non-league slate and will take on the Eagles on the road on Friday, September 30 at 7:00 p.m. After just a one-year series, Everett will not be playing St. John’s Shrewsbury again this season on Thanksgiving Day. It was anticipated that the series would be lasting, but St. John’s officials announced in June it would now play a different opponent on Thanksgiving, and Everett, at this time, once again, is sitting out Turkey Day. Thirty of the 40 senators did not miss any roll calls and have 100 percent roll call attendance records. This high level of participation can likely be attributed to the fact that under emergency rules adopted because of the COVID-19 pandemic, the vast majority of the 40 senators are not in the Senate chamber during a session. Most are watching and listening to the session from their home, business or Senate office and casting their votes remotely. Senators’ remote votes are communicated to Senate officials during the session or prior to the session if senators are informed in advance that there will be a roll call vote.

It is a Senate tradition that the Senate president only votes occasionally. Current Senate President Karen Spilka follows that tradition and only voted on 39 (26.7 percent) of the 146 roll calls while not voting on 107 (73.3 percent) of them. Nine (23 percent) of the 39 senators, other than Spilka, missed one or more roll calls. Sens. Cindy Friedman (D-Arlington), Diana DiZoglio (D-Methuen) and Sen.

LEGAL NOTICE CITY OF EVERETT, MASSACHUSETTS PLANNING BOARD PUBLIC HEARING NOTICE Public Hearing on an application by 530 2nd Street LLC Property located at: 530 & 535 Second Street Site Plan Review, Inclusionary Zoning, and Determination of Material Change In accordance with the provisions of M.G.L Chapter 40A and with Sections 5, 6, 19, and 32 of the Everett Zoning Ordinance, the Everett Planning Board will conduct a public hearing on Wednesday, September 7, 2022 at 6:00PM in the Speaker George Keverian Room (Room 37, Everett City Hall) to consider the above-listed application for Site Plan Review, Special Permit for Inclusionary Zoning, and determination of material change pursuant to M.G.L. Chapter 40A §16.

The new proposal contemplates an alteration of Building 1 (located at 530 Second Street), removing a story from the building, reducing the height to 60’, reducing the unit count to 84 units, and adding off-street dedicated loading spaces for package delivery and ride-share drop off. Building 2 (located at 535 Second Street) has been approved by both the Planning Board and Zoning Board of Appeals and, therefore, contains no deviations from the original plan. Applicant seeks to amend the Inclusionary Zoning Special Permit to align with the new unit count, proposing that 11 of the units be designated as affordable. 530 Second Street is a parcel of land referenced by Assessor’s Department as K0-07-000001 & K0-07-000002.

If you were to open up a joint brokerage account several months prior to applying for MassHealth, it is likely the application would be denied as MassHealth would proceed to count 100% of the value of the account as opposed to 50%. The adding of a child as a joint owner of the brokerage account would be treated as a disqualifying transfer subject to the five-year look back period. If you are concerned that a loved one, who is not married, and who may be in need of nursing home care well within the next five years, it might be worthwhile looking into takTESTIMONY | FROM PAGE 14 tive) Irish Clowns’ is how the mayor … describe a prominent Everett Irish family in one such exchange.” The problem was, both Resnek and Philbin knew that the text in question didn’t belong to the mayor, but Greg Antonelli, owner of GTA Landscaping and Construction, an individual with whom Resnek himself had developed a relationship. According to the complaint, the defendants knowingly published the article despite being in possession of the actual text message which proved it wasn’t sent by the mayor but by Antonelli. Antonelli invoked the Fifth Amendment right not to incriminate himself when deposed in this case about his communications with Resnek. “Not only did Mr. Resnek and/ falsely attribute this text to Mr. DeMaria, he concealed Mr. Antonelli’s identity as the actual author of the text as well as the fact that Mr. Antonelli was referring to the Philbins, Questions and Mr. Resnek’s self-described “partners.” In an ironic twist, Resnek, in the current election year, is publishing stories for the challenger in a state representative race. Given that his candidate has no experience as a community leader or held an elected office, Resnek has decided to fabricate more lies in another desperate attempt to unseat a popular incumbent. “Mr. DeMaria demands a trial by jury on all counts so triable,” states the complaint. Resnek will be once again be deposed on Sept. 1st . ing some bank account monies and transferring them to a brokerage account in the name of the person who will soon be entering the nursing home and a son or daughter. If enough time goes by after the establishment of such an account, at least half of the monies will be protected. If MassHealth took the position that the entire account is countable, then excess assets in that situation could be transferred to a pooled trust depending upon the particular facts and circumstances. The pooled trust will take the excess countable assets off the table and convert them to non-countable assets held by the non-profit pooled trust entity. Monies can be spent on the nursing home resident on items and services not covered by MassHealth. There is a payback provision to MassHealth and there is an amount that will be retained by the charity depending on how long the recipient of MassHealth benefits resides in the nursing home. Even a Medicaid annuity should be looked at as another option of protecting as much money as possible. Countable assets are converted to a non-countable income stream that would have to be paid to the nursing home. By doing this, you would at least be able to obtain approval for MassHealth benefits.

THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, AugusT 26, 2022 Page 17 BEACON | FROM PAGE 15 corded due to remote communications issue,” said Sen. Rush. “I submitted a letter [indicating how I voted] shortly after with my vote on [the roll call].” Sens. Friedman, Chang-Diaz, Chandler, DiZoglio, Fattman, Gomez and Collins did not respond to repeated requests by Beacon Hill Roll Call asking them for a statement. SENATORS’ 2022 ROLL CALL ATTENDANCE RECORDS The percentage listed next to the senator’s name is the percentage of roll call votes on which the senator voted. The number in parentheses represents the number of roll calls that he or she missed. Sen. Sal DiDomenico 100 percent (0) ALSO UP ON BEACON HILL FILL OUT ONE APPLICATION FOR MULTI-STATE BENEFITS– Gov. Baker signed into law a measure that would allow individuals to simultaneously apply online, on a state-sponsored website, for various state-funded benefi ts including MassHealth, the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), childcare subsidies, housing subsidies, fuel assistance and other needsbased health care, nutrition and shelter benefi ts. Supporters say that people who need state assistance usually need it from several different programs. They noted this presents a problem because it is diffi cult for people without cars and childcare to go to all the diff erent places to apply. They said a one-stop common application would help streamline the system and avoid a lot of bureaucratic red tape. Baker said he strongly support the measure “as it aligns with an important initiative that is currently underway in this administration.” “The agencies and secretariats included in the proposed [measure] are currently engaged in collaborative eff orts to establish a common application mechanism nearly identical to the portal envisioned by this section,” said Baker. MEDICAL MARIJUANA USE ON SCHOOL GROUNDS – Gov. Baker vetoed and sent back to the Legislature a section of the cannabis bill that he recently signed into law. The section he vetoed would require the Cannabis Control Commission, in consultation with the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education and the Department of Public Health, to conduct a study and issue recommendations on how to remove obstacles that currently prevent students at public and private K-12 schools from possessing and consuming medical marijuana on school grounds. Baker noted that current law states as clearly as possible that possession and consumption of marijuana must remain unlawful on the grounds of any K-12 school, on school buses and in youth centers. “The language of the section [that I vetoed] is highly prescriptive—making it clear that the agencies charged with producing the study must identify ways to make medical marijuana widely available within schools, rather than considering whether such an allowance is advisable,” wrote Baker is his veto message. “The voter initiatives that legalized medical marijuana in 2012 and 2016 included strong measures to keep marijuana away from K-12 schools and school children. Both laws explicitly stated that marijuana would in no circumstance be permitted on school grounds. [Current law] also states as clearly as possible that possession and consumption of marijuana must remain unlawful on the grounds of any K-12 school, on school buses and in youth centers. Because the study … clearly works against these important and well-established protections and disregards the clear intentions of the voters in legalizing marijuana use, I cannot approve this part of the bill.” Supporters of the study say they understand the governor’s concerns but note that this is only a study to get more information. They point out that the District of Columbia as well as 10 states—California, Colorado, Delaware, Illinois, Maine, Maryland, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Virginia and Washington—allow students to take medical marijuana on school grounds during the school day as part of their daily treatment. They say that just because a student is in school at the time, he or she should take his or her dose does not mean that the dose should not be given. BOARD OF EDUCATION RAISES THE MCAS SCORE HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS WILL NEED IN ORDER TO GRADUATE – The State Board of Education voted to raise the minimum score that future high school students must receive on some of their MCAS tests in order to graduate including English language arts, math and science and technology/ engineering. The higher score requirement will apply to students entering high school as freshmen beginning in the 2022-2023 school year. “Raising the … standard is critical, as is the message that we believe students are capable of meeting the higher standard and the commonwealth and its educators will support them to do that,” said Education Commissioner Jeff Riley. “This evidence underscores the importance of raising the standard and also highlights the need to articulate clearly to students, parents, educators and other stakeholders how the different levels of achievement on the MCAS tests signal whether a student is on track for success beyond high school, whether in postsecondary education, the military, the workplace, or independent and productive community life,” Riley continued. Sen. Pat Jehlen (D-Somerville) spoke against the regulations and said raising the passing score for English MCAS “will harm children who are English learners.” “These children will be the ones most aff ected by raising the English passing scores because, by defi nition, they don’t yet read and write English fl uently,” said Jehlen. “They can have bright futures as important members of our community and contributors to our economy if they can get a high school diploma.” The most outspoken critic of the proposal was Max Page, president of the Massachusetts Teachers Association. “You’ve fetishized an approach to education that is, at the very least, outdated and, at the most, destructive of our schools and communities,” said Page. “You know, somewhere a little before the ed reform bill in 1983, I had a shiny object I too thought was magical. It was called a mood ring and I thought it was capturing my every change of emotion. I also thought that REO Speedwagon’s first album was really the height of pop music. Then I grew older and I grew up. The board is still fidgeting with your mood rings and spinning their REO Speedwagon albums, obsessed with a test invented some 20 years ago and repeatedly shown to do little more than prove the wealth of the student and the community where it is taken.” PLASTIC POLLUTION ACTION DAY (H 3122) – The House approved and sent to the Senate a bill designating September 14 as Plastic Pollution Action Day, in recognition of the BEACON | SEE PAGE 19 - LEGAL NOTICE - CITY OF EVERETT PURCHASING DEPARTMENT Request for proposals will be received at 484 Broadway, Everett, Massachusetts 02149 no later than 11:00 AM on Thursday, September 15, 2022 for the following and opened at the time(s) specified: INSTALLATION OF 48 WATER FILLING STATIONS IN VARIOUS SCHOOLS Invitation for Bid (IFB) may be obtained by emailing a request to robert.moreschi@ci.everett.ma.us Robert Moreschi Chief Procurement Officer August 26, 2022 ~ Home of the Week ~ GROUNDSKEEPER/CUSTODIAN The Everett Housing Authority seeks qualified applicants with a minimum of two years of custodian and grounds keeping experience for full-time employment with benefits.

Marjorie Decker (D-Cambridge) did not respond to repeated requests by Beacon Hill Roll Call to comment on the bill’s passage. Sen. Sal DiDomenico (D-Everett), the Senate sponsor of the measure, said he is encouraged that the bill passed the House. “It is a very simple bill that would designate a date for plastic pollution awareness and action,” said DiDomenico. “Plastic consumption is something every consumer can work towards reducing and eventually eliminating. With the passage of this bill I hope it will broaden our community awareness of the impact of plastic pollution.” QUOTABLE QUOTES “Mayor Wu’s announcement demonstrates that the new climate law is already working.

Baker talks a good game about supporting workforce development. But when he had the chance to help women and people of color build their skills and gain more access to state construction jobs, he vetoed a 20 percent apprenticeship requirement for projects over $1 million in the recently approved transportation bond bill. The 20 percent provision is modeled after the 2008 stimulus bill, which successfully increased diversity and brought new apprentices into the building trades.” ---Massachusetts Building Trades Unions president Frank Callahan. “I will say this: she and her team have been terrifi c partners on a lot of this stuff around the Orange Line.

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 latenight 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 August 15-19, the House met for a total of 30 minutes and the Senate met for a total of 35 minutes. Mon.
