It’s clear voters didn’t want the Senate in Republican hands, and, by their votes, rebuked Trump’s record of higher prices related to tariff s, the war on Iran and overall mismanagement of the economy.” From the other side of the political aisle, Chelsea Republican City Committee member and City Councillor Todd Taylor said he is “deeply disappointed national politics overwhelmed the positive message of Minogue,” a reference to Democratic gains nationwide. “The state Republican Party needs to seriously commit to the long-term task of rebuilding the party from the municipal level.” In another competitive race, incumbent Attorney General Andrea Joy Campbell was reelected statewide over Michael Walsh and won Everett, 6,904-2,467.

Sa Sa a Say y Senior enior Sen by Jim Miller Can my children get Social Security benefi ts when I retire? Dear Savvy Senior, I’m getting ready to start my Social Security retirement benefits and have two children at home, ages 17 and 15. I’ve heard they may also be eligible for benefi ts on my record while I’m collecting. Is that true, and if so, how does it work? How long would they receive benefi ts, and is there anything I need to do to apply for them? Retiring Parent Dear Retiring, Yes! If you’re 62 or older and raising kids, Social Security can put a little extra cash in your family’s pocket. Here’s how it works. When you claim your retirement benefits, each of your children may get up to 50 percent of your primary insurance amount (PIA), which is your benefi t at full retirement age. Even if you take a reduced benefi t by claiming early, your children’s payments are still based on your full retirement amount, which is 67 if you were born in 1960 or later. You can apply for your children’s benefits at the same time you fi le your own Social Security retirement claim, or separately afterward if needed, but doing it together is usually the simplest approach. To qualify, children must be unmarried and under 18. If they are 18 or 19 and still in high school, they can receive benefi ts until they graduate or reach age 19 years and two months, whichever comes fi rst. If they work, the usual earnings test may apply. In 2026, Social Security reduces benefi ts by $1 for every $2 earned above $22,320. Special rules apply to children with disabilities. Since your youngest is 15, your spouse can also receive benefi ts on your record – even if she is under full retirement age. This is a “child-in-care” spousal benefi t that is available when a spouse is caring for a child under 16. That benefi t can be up to 50 percent of your PIA and ends when your youngest child turns 16. It can be especially helpful in households where one parent has stepped back from work or is focused on caregiving. There is also a limit on how much Social Security can pay a family, called the family maximum, usually between 150 and 180 percent of your PIA. If total benefi ts exceed that amount, payments to family members (except yours) are reduced proportionally. For example, if your full retirement benefit is $3,000 per month, the family maximum might be around $5,289. That leaves $2,289 to divide among your children – about $1,144.50 each. If your spouse also qualifi es, her benefi t would further reduce the amount available to be shared, though the total family payment remains capped. Children can also receive benefi ts if a parent becomes disabled – usually up to 50 percent of the parent’s disability benefi t – or if a parent dies, in which case they may receive up to 75 percent of the deceased parent’s basic benefi t. These benefi ts won’t cover everything, but even modest support can make a meaningful diff erence for a family. Keeping benefi ts on track Social Security automatically stops children’s benefi ts when they age out or graduate. Knowing when payments start and stop can help you plan your budget and make the most of this support. If your children’s circumstances change – such as graduating early, getting married, or starting full-time work – be sure to notify Social Security so payments stay accurate.

THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, NOVEmbER 6, 2026 Page 15 OBITUARIES Estate Taxes In Massachusetts T he current Massachusetts estate tax exemption is $2million. At least Massachusetts has doubled the exemption from $1million to $2million effective for decedents dying on or after January 1, 2023. The problem is the Massachusetts estate tax is leading many taxpayers to flee the Commonwealth in order to settle in a state that has no estate tax and even no income tax. The current federal gift tax and estate tax exemption is $15million. This figure will be adjusted annually for inflation. If a married person dies and does not use this exemption during his or her lifetime, the exemption is in effect given to the surviving spouse for him or her to use, thereby providing for a total exemption of $30million. This is referred to as “portability”. Massachusetts does not allow for any “portability” provisions. For federal purposes, in order to take advantage of portability, a federal estate tax return would have to be filed on behalf of the first spouse to die, even if no estate tax is due. The decedent’s unused estate tax exemption is then passed to the surviving spouse. If the first spouse to die left everything to the surviving spouse and the surviving spouse subsequently died with a $30million estate, no federal estate tax would be due. Gifting low-cost basis assets or cash either to children, grandchildren or irrevocable gifting Trusts can serve to reduce the Massachusetts taxable estate and save on estate taxes. There is no gift tax in Massachusetts. Also, you do not have to add back “taxable” gifts when calculating the Massachusetts taxable estate. Massachusetts goes by line 3 on the federal Form 706 (1999 Revision date) which is the taxable estate “before” adding back taxable gifts. A taxable gift is a gift in excess of the $19,000 per doner annual gift tax exclusion. For federal purposes, taxable gifts are not really relevant when an individual’s gross estate is much less than the $15million exemption. Consequently, a taxpayer with a net worth of $4million all in cash can give all of that money away to children with no gift tax to be paid in Massachusetts, and since the federal gift tax exclusion is $15milion, no federal gift tax would have to be paid. Fay Marie Renaud Ritcey O f Por t S ain t Lucie, FL, formerly of Everett and Westwood, a devot - ed mother, Filing a gift tax return technically is required but from a practical standpoint is entirely irrelevant. The federal gift tax exemption and estate tax exemption is unified, meaning you can either give $15million away during your lifetime or die and bequeath $15million away upon your death and pay no federal tax, but you do not have the benefit of being able to double up on the exemption amount. Often, it is more advantageous to provide for low-cost basis assets such as appreciated real state or stocks to be included in your taxable estate in order to achieve the step up in cost basis equal to the fair market value of the assets upon your death. This ends up eliminating or greatly reducing the capital gains tax upon a subsequent sale by your children. The federal capital gains tax rate can be as high as 23.8% and the Massachusetts capital gains tax rate would be 5%, for a total tax rate of 28.8%. To the extent depreciation has been claimed on rental real estate, the amount of depreciation taken would actually result in that portion of the capital gain being taxed federally at 25%. This is called depreciation recapture. Therefore, the total future capital gains tax paid could be a lot higher than the Massachusetts estate tax paid on the appreciated assets if included in the taxable estate. Gifting cash or high-cost basis assets in the eleventh hour can certainly result in a substantial savings in Massachusetts estate taxes. A high-cost basis asset might be a common stock that has not appreciated in value. There is no built-in gain to worry about a child paying a sizable capital gains tax after you pass away. In this situation, the step up in cost basis is irrelevant. Joseph D.

There were no roll calls in the House or Senate last week. There was no debate on either amendment. And neither key supporters nor opponents of the amendments responded to several requests from Beacon Hill Roll Call asking them why they voted the way they did. Paul Craney, the Massachusetts Fiscal Alliance’s executive director, did respond and told Beacon Hill Roll Call why he opposed both amendments. “Amendment 1 and 2 are spending plans that are on top of the state budget that went into eff ect on July 1,” said Craney. “Only in Massachusetts do lawmakers pass an additional spending plan three months after passing the state budget, which was the largest in state history. Legislative leaders cannot help themselves in spending more and more taxpayer dollars when they should be looking at driving down state spending to help make Massachusetts more aff ordable.” CONSOLIDATED AMENDMENT #1 (H 5699) House 132-19, approved a lengthy amendment that consolidated 50 amendments into one consolidated amendment. The consolidated amendment includes allowing stores to sell liquor on Thanksgiving Day; imposing up to a 5-year prison sentence on anyone who has been ordered to wear a GPS tracking device by a court and then intentionally damages, removes, modifies or deactivates the device; prohibiting a car license number plate from being covered or obscured by an opaque, transparent, translucent or tinted material; and imposing a $50 fi ne on any ice cream truck driver who does not have an amber dome light and the fl ashing orange lights on the back of their ice cream truck when the truck is parked and serving ice cream. Neither supporters of the amendment nor opponents of it spoke for or against it on the House fl oor. House Speaker Ron Mariano (D-Quincy) and House Ways and Means Chair Rep. Aaron Michlewitz (D-Boston) did not respond to repeated requests from Beacon Hill Roll Call asking them why they supported the consolidated amendment. Beacon Hill Roll Call also asked many of the 19 Republicans who voted against the amendment why they did so. None responded. (A “Yes” vote is for the consolidated amendment. A “No” vote is against it.) Rep. Joseph McGonagle Yes CONSOLIDATED AMENDMENT #2 (H 5699) House 143-8, approved a lengthy amendment that consolidated 140 amendments into one. The consolidated amendment includes millions of dollars in funding earmarked for projects BEACON | SEE PAGE 17

Critics say that these earmarks are used to secure votes of representatives for the budget itself and sometimes for other bills. Once again, neither supporters of the amendment nor opponents of it spoke for or against it on the House floor. And House Speaker Ron Mariano (D-Quincy) and Rep. Aaron Michlewitz (D-Boston) again did not respond to repeated requests from Beacon Hill Roll Call asking them why they supported the consolidated amendment. Beacon Hill Roll Call also repeatedly asked all eight Republicans who voted against the amendment why they did so. None responded. Those eight Republicans are: Reps. Kim Ferguson (R-Holden), Paul Frost (R-Auburn), Michael Chaisson (R-Foxboro), Steven Howitt (R-Seekonk), Hannah Kane (R-Shrewsbury), Norman Orrall (R-Lakeville), Alyson Sullivan-Almeida (R-Abington) and Kenneth Sweezey (R-Duxbury).

Joseph McGonagle Yes ALSO UP ON BEACON HILL CHANGE THE BAY STATE’S TIME ZONE (S 2157) – The Senate gave initial approval to a bill that would make Atlantic Standard Time (AST) the standard yearround time in Massachusetts and would put an end to the practice of switching between AST and Daylight Savings Time (DST). This means that people would no longer change the clocks in the Spring and Fall. The change would only take effect if two or more neighboring states (Connecticut, Maine, New Hampshire, New York, Rhode Island or Vermont) also adopt similar legislation. Within 120 days of this new law taking eff ect, Gov. Maura Healey would be required to petition the United States Department of Transportation (DOT) to include Massachusetts within the AST Zone. Under current federal law, a state cannot simply unilaterally decide to change their time zone. Any change would have to be approved by the DOT. The measure also would require the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) to establish a task force to study school start times and the connection between start times and student performance. DESE must also hold public hearings and obtain comments and suggestions from teachers, students and parents and must report its fi ndings to the Legislature’s Committee on Education within one year. Currently, 48 states use DST – the exceptions being Hawaii and Arizona. DST begins at 2 a.m. local time on the second Sunday in March. On the fi rst Sunday in November, areas on DST return to AST at 2 a.m. When DST begins in the United States you turn your clocks ahead one hour (“Spring forward”). At the end of DST, you turn your clocks back one hour (“Fall back”). “Thomas Emswiler, a Quincy constituent and dedicated expert on time zone policy, brought this bill to my attention,” said sponsor Sen.

Rebecca Edmondson Korom- Chairman Roberta Suppa- Clerk of Board of Appeals October 30, November 06, 2026 REPEAL ABORTION LAW – The Compassionate Care Coalition, led by Massachusetts Citizens for Life and Massachusetts Family Action, announced at a Statehouse event that it has collected 97,276 signatures, nearly double the 49,716 signatures needed to put the recently-approved abortion bill on the 2028 ballot for voters to repeal or maintain. The measure, signed by Gov. Healey on August 10, would loosen restrictions on abortions that can be performed after 24 weeks of gestation. The bill is scheduled to take effect on November 8, 90 days after the governor signed it. The measure removes existing requirements that limit abortions at CITY OF EVERETT MODIFIED LEGAL NOTICE 24 weeks of pregnancy or later to four specific medical circumstances, and instead allows licensed physicians and providers to rely on their best medical judgment when caring for patients. Local city and town officials have certified the signatures, but the Secretary of State’s office still has to certify the signatures in order for the question to go on 2028 ballot. As it stands now, if the secretary certifies the signatures, the question would not only go on the 2028 ballot but the law would be suspended until after the 2028 election. However, Gov. Healey can attach an emergency preamble to make the law go into effect immediately which would also prevent it from being suspended. She did exactly that to prohibit suspension of the 2024-gun law, which is the subject of a repeal effort that voters are deciding on November 3. “The people of Massachusetts did not ask for abortion through all nine months, and in a matter of weeks they made that clear,” said Sam Miele, chairman of the Compassionate Care Coalition. “We are grateful to every volunteer, pastor and parish staffer who carried a clipboard. Because of them, voters will have the final say.” “When it seems impossible to reach and serve vulnerable, hurting women, remember that truth paves the road of possibility,” said Myrna Maloney Flynn, president of Massachusetts Citizens for Life and vice chair of the Compassionate Care Coalition. “If you ever think you’re powerless when it comes to protecting the unborn, think again.” Catholic Action League Executive Director C. J. Doyle congratulated the Compassionate Care Coalition. He noted, “If this proposed referendum makes it to the ballot in 2028, it will be the first time in 42 years that Bay State voters will directly decide an abortion issue.” “This law was passed on the fundamental principle that decisions about pregnancy belong between a woman and her doctor, not politicians,” said Rep. Lindsay Sabadosa (D-Northampton) who opposes repeal. “In Massachusetts, physicians must be free to exercise their best medical judgment, patients must be free to make decisions for themselves and their families, and no one should have to leave the commonwealth to receive care available in our worldclass medical institutions. Indeed, the idea that politicians belong in the exam room is an extreme and deeply outdated view, one that runs counter to the values Massachusetts residents have repeatedly affirmed through their strong support for abortion rights.” “The [bill] is supported by leading medical experts, reproductive health and justice advocates and more than two-thirds of Massachusetts voters,” said Sheila Ramirez, executive director of the Planned Parenthood Advocacy Fund of Massachusetts. “People in Massachusetts don’t want politicians or religious institutions dictating what kind of pregnancy care they can receive. The groups behind this referendum effort are once again spreading fear and misinformation to stigmatize abortion and restrict access to care that patients need and providers are trained to deliver. Massachusetts has consistently stood for health care access, reproductive freedom and evidence-based medicine, and voters are not interested in moving backward.” Kathleen Melendy, Massachusetts state director for Reproductive Equity Now, argues that the law “responds to the realities patients and providers are facing and ensures patients can access compassionate care here at home.” Melendy continued, “This referendum effort is part of a broader national anti-abortion campaign working state by state to roll back reproductive freedom. It is no coincidence that it comes as the Trump administration and its allies are using the power of the federal government to restrict reproductive health care nationwide. Now, anti-abortion activists are trying to bring that same agenda to Massachusetts.” $800,000 TO IMPROVE WORKPLACE SAFETY – Gov. Healey announced the awarding of $800,000 in grants to help nearly 7,000 workers across Massachusetts stay safe on the job. The grants, administered by the Department of Industrial Accidents (DIA), support workplace safety training and education to help prevent injuries and reduce risks for workers. Grant recipients include 176 entities including cities and towns, small businesses, minority-, women– and veteran-owned businesses, and employers in industries such as manufacturing and construction. DIA says it has awarded an estimated $25 million since 1988 in workplace safety grants, supporting approximately 340,000 workers and 1,880 employers across the Bay State. “Whether you’re working for a small business, on a construction site or for your local community, everyone deserves a safe workplace,” said Lt. Gov. Kim Driscoll. BEACON | SEE PAGE 19

Our goal is to make workplace safety more than a requirement.

OKUR-CHUNG NEURODEVELOPMENTAL SYNDROME AWARENESS DAY (H 3366) – The Senate gave initial approval to a House-approved bill designating April 5 as Okur-Chung Neurodevelopmental Syndrome (OCNDS) Awareness Day. House sponsor Rep. Kristin Kassner (D-Hamilton), noting the bill pride and joy. She was a treasured sister to John Nee and his wife Kathy, Katherine Travalini, and was predeceased by Joseph Nee, Thomas Nee, Mae Cappuccio, Celia Ronan, Nancy Supino, and Sally Finn. Peg embraced the role of a loving grandmother to her grandchildren: Christopher, Nicholas, and Blaine Clark, TJ, Connor, Andrew, Hayden, and Bryson Bond, Amanda, Daniel, and Nicole Jackson, Cameron and Mathew Bond, and Angela, Joseph, and Ana DeRosa. Her legacy continues through her great-grandchildren: Charles Clark, Gianna, and Joseph DeRosa. Her life was a testament to love, SELLER2 Templeton, Phyllis Stamides, Stefanos Pirman, David was brought to her attention by her constituent Jillian Kavanagh, said that this neurodevelopmental disorder can cause severe speech delay, developmental delay, epilepsy, behavioral challenges and feeding difficulty. Kassner continued, “OCNDS is hard to diagnose, which is why it’s so important to raise awareness about this syndrome. Awareness can lead to early diagnosis, which can lead to early treatment, which will lead to better outcomes. The sooner we pass it, the sooner we can spread the word about OCNDS and make a difference for patients and their families.” The bill still needs additional approval by the House and Senate before it goes to Gov. Healey for her signature. 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 family, and unwavering dedication—a legacy beautifully reflected in the hearts of those who knew her.

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 filed. 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 October 2630, the House met for a total of 46 minutes and the Senate met for a total of 54 minutes.
