Democrat candidates carried Everett and Massachusetts in 2016 and 2020, as well as this year, but the Republican, Trump, won the national election in 2016 and 2024. Trump did better in Everett this year than in the past two elections, losing by only 3,003 votes. While losing the national election in 2020, he received 4,022 Everett votes compared to Joe Biden’s 10,343, a diff erence of 6,321. While winning the Presidency in 2016, he received 3,940 compared to Hilary Clinton’s 9,641, a diff erence of 5,701. The Everett results bore out a prediction from Chelsea Republican City Committee member and City Councillor Todd Taylor: Trump would do better in Everett this year, based on national trends. He lost in all Wards and Precincts, but did best in Ward 1, Precinct 2, which votes at the Connolly Center on Chelsea Street, losing by only 63 votes, 287 to 214. In the other major contested race, incumbent Senator Democrat Elizabeth Warren received 7,992 Everett votes compared to Republican challenger John Deaton’s 3,957, with Everett again agreeing with the statewide result. Warren votes were twice that or more than Deaton in all Wards and Precincts. In a lower profi le contested race, Everett Democrat Maria VOTES | SEE PAGE 14

THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, NOVEmbER 8, 2024 Page 9 Funeral home director writes killer thriller Everett natives Stephen Rocco and Chris Ciulla join forces on local mystery “T he Girl Who Woke Up in the Morgue” by Stephen Rocco is the perfect audiobook to listen to if you desire a modern crime story with a hint of the macabre. It focuses on Sonny Fiorentino, a trusted funeral director in the city of Springdale. In the midst of a drug crisis where the young are being poisoned by opiates at an alarming rate, his relatively ordered life is altered when one of the victims, Kelsey Jordan, unexpectedly awakens in his morgue. With a second chance at life, Kelsey and Sonny join forces to help rid Springdale of this drug scourge. While the main plot centers on a slow burn crime investigation, the backstory focuses on the real-life dangers of opioid-related drug addiction. As the opiate in the “The Girl Who Woke Up in the Morgue”is claimed by doctors and pharmaceutical companies to be safe and non-addictive, the real-life stats are undeniable. According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse, opioid-involved overdoses rose from 49,860 in 2019 to 81,806 in 2022, and continues to escalate.

Page 12 THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, NOVEmbER 8, 2024 INCIDENT | FROM PAGE 1 Special to The Advocate “O n October 30, 2024, units of the Everett Police Department and first responders arrived to the scene of a reported car crash on Wilbur Street. While on scene, officers discovered an unknown substance which was collected and sent to the crime lab for analysis. The incident did not pose a threat to the public and Everett PD determined that there were no arrestable offenses at that time. “Subsequently, on November 3 and November 4, Everett PD received further reports that an unknown individual discarded unknown substances at several locations within the City of Everett. The Everett Fire Department and Inspectional Services Department responded and while wearing protective gear safely cleaned and discarded residue from the scene to protect the health and safety of the general public. At no time was there a threat to the public. “During the morning of November 4, the Inspectional Services Department also located a discarded container on Sycamore Street. A subsequent investigation led Everett Police to investigate the premises of 51 Gledhill Avenue in Everett. Through the cooperation of the homeowner, the police were able to uncover a lab that had the ingredients to produce MDMA/Ecstasy. “Upon this discovery, the Everett Fire Department and members of the Criminal Investigation Unit and members from the drug unit within the Everett Police Department responded to the scene to conduct further investigations. As part of this process, the house was immediately secured and partner units from the office of the Massachusetts Fire Marshal and the Massachusetts State Police responded to provide additional assistance. Laboratory technicians were then able to secure samples of suspected narcotics located within the premises for testing. “The residence at 51 Gledhill Avenue was secured during the evening and the Everett Inspectional Services Department coordinated the clean-up efforts with a specialist cleaning firm. “During the morning hours of November 5, the Everett Police Department arrested Alexander Yaksic, 33, of Everett on a Federal Probation Warrant. Mr. Yaksic is the suspect related to an incident at 51 Gledhill Avenue and at other locations in the City of Everett and he will be charged with numerous narcotics-related offenses. “‘I would like to thank Chief Strong, the entire Everett Police Department, Everett Fire Department, Inspectional Services Department, and our partners in state law enforcement for their exceptional work investigating this incident,’ said Mayor Carlo DeMaria. ‘The exemplary response of our first responders and the professional degree of coordination with state agencies is representative of the commitment our team has to ensuring the safety and security of the people of Everett. I would also like to thank the people of Everett for their cooperation throughout the investigation.’ “‘I am proud of the work of the Everett Police Department during this investigation,’ said Everett Police Chief Paul Strong. ‘I would also like to thank the Everett Fire Department, Inspectional Services Department, the Massachusetts Fire Marshal, and Massachusetts State Police for their cooperation. The common goal during investigations is to protect the public and to protect personnel – on all fronts this was a major success.’ “Inspectional Services teams will continue to oversee clean-up services at the premises of 51 Gledhill Avenue. There remains no threat to public safety.”

Page 14 THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, NOVEmbER 8, 2024 VOTES | FROM PAGE 1 Curtatone received 482 votes to be Middlesex Southern District Register of Deeds compared to 199 for Republican William Tauro. In uncontested races, with 8,833 votes 7th District Congressional Representative Ayanna Presley, Middlesex and Suffolk Counties State Senator and Assistant Majority Leader Salvatore DiDomenico (9,603), 28th Middlesex District State Representative Joseph McGonagle (8,313), 2nd Suffolk District State Representative Daniel Ryan (282), 11th Suffolk District State Representative Judith Garcia (761) and state Governor’s Council 6th District representative Terence Kennedy (9,269) were all reelected. All are Democrats and won in the primary election in September with no Republican races at the time. The city followed state trends on the ballot questions, approving Questions 1, 2 and 3 and rejecting 4 and 5. Everett approved Question 1 – to allow the State Auditor to audit the Legislature – by a vote of 8,108 to 3,157. City voters also approved Question 2 – to eliminate the state Comprehensive Assessment System test or other statewide or school district-wide test as requirements to graduate from High School – 7,339 to 4,479. City voters also approved Question 3 – to provide transportation network drivers (e.g., Uber drivers) the option to form unions to collectively bargain with transportation network companies regarding wages, benefits and terms and conditions of work – by a vote of 7,084 to 3,934. City voters rejected Question 4 – a proposal to allow persons aged 21 and older to grow, possess and use certain natural psychedelic substances in certain circumstances under licensed supervision and to grow and possess limited quantities of those substances in their home, and to create a commission to regulate those substances – by a vote of 6,405 to 5250. City voters also rejected Question 5 – a proposal to gradually increase the minimum hourly wage an employer must pay a tipped worker, over the course of five years, to the full state minimum wage, at which point employers could pool all tips and distribute them to all non-management workers – by a close vote of 5,843 to 5,565. Councillor-at-Large Katy Rogers made statements in favor of Questions 2 and 4. “I’m glad to see the MCAS question passed,” she said. “I don’t think it should be the standard for graduation.” The full City Council and School Committee voted their approvals of Question 2 before the election. She also expressed disappointment that Question 4 did not pass and feels voters could eventually become educated about the need for the substances in question to be readily available. City Clerk Sergio Cornelio said the turnout was over 50%. The good weather and the importance of the Presidential race probably contributed to that. As a result, it was busy at the various precincts. “It’s night and day from the primaries,” Ward 3, Precinct 1 Warden Ruthy Dottin said from the Everett Housing Authority Whittier Drive complex, in reference to 20% lower turnout in previous elections in 2024 and municipal elections in 2023. At the Lafayette School, Ward 4, Precinct 1 Warden Laurence Arinello called the turnout “overwhelming. It’s nothing I expected to see.” Ward 4, Precinct 4 Warden Kathleen Arinello, also at Lafayette, confirmed it was “very busy.” In the Keverian Room at City Hall, Ward 5, Precinct 2 Warden Linda Shedden called her day “crazy. It’s been very busy.” Despite the high turnout, early voting and mail-in ballots being processed at the precincts, as they were in September, and some malfunctions of voting machines due to volume and not affecting accuracy, the City Clerk’s Office produced the final tally by 10:30 p.m.

The accident injured his spinal cord, allowing only limited movements to his arms and hands, rendering him a person with tetraplegia.

Page 20 THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, NOVEmbER 8, 2024 Tide boys soccer falls to Beverly in Division 1 preliminary round heartbreaker Despite the loss, Everett’s first-year coach sees the culture changing on the pitch to transform the program soon into a state powerhouse By Joe McConnell I n Rodney Landaverde’s firstyear as the Everett High School boys soccer coach, the Crimson Tide (7-8-4) made the Division 1 state tournament. They were the 42nd seed, and last Saturday, Nov. 2, they went up against host Beverly (13-42), the 23rd seed, in a preliminary round game. It wasn’t decided until the first overtime period, where the home team Panthers edged the Everett boys by the narrowest of margins, 2-1. Playing 80-minutes weren’t enough to declare a winner between these two evenly-matched clubs that also scrimmaged each other in late August. They needed an overtime period to decide the On Oct. 22 in a home game at Everett Memorial Stadium against Somerville, the Everett High School boys soccer team celebrated Senior Night, where over 70 alumni, shown posing for a photo at halftime, returned to watch their successors on the pitch, who are led by first-year coach and former Tide player Rodney Landaverde. The 2024 team was able to send them home happy with a 2-0 victory over the Highlanders. (Courtesy photo) overcome. Landaverde was pleased with his team’s performance in the first half. “We were able to find our rhythm early, and were dominating the play,” the coach said. “We possessed the ball and controlled the game in our favor. It caused Beverly to lose the ball, and struggle to generate offensive chances.” But unfortunately, despite Everett’s domination, the game was still scoreless at halftime. The Tide continue to dominate at the start of the second half. “We carried over the same amount of intensity from the SOCCER | SEE PAGE 22 Revere rises up to knock the Tide out of the football playoffs Everett heads to St. John’s of Shrewsbury tonight to begin the nonplayoff schedule, hoping to complete the season on a winning note By Joe McConnell I t was not the way it was supposed to be. The Everett High School football team (3-5) had everything going for it after trouncing Lynn Classical two weeks ago, 48-0. It followed a very disappointing 35-21 loss to host Brockton, where the Crimson Tide failed to protect a 21-7 lead in the second half. But going into the final regular season game before the start of the playoffs, the Everett boys were still in control of their own destiny. They were the 16th seed in the Division 1 power rankings, and all they had to do was beat Greater Boston League rival Revere at home last Friday night. But instead, the visiting Patriots (4-4, 23rd seed in Division 3) roared into Everett Memorial Stadium, and proceeded to dispatch the Tide, 42-18. With the loss, Everett went from the 16th 19th seed to overall, and subsequently are on the outside looking in for the second straight year as the playoffs get underway tonight, Nov. 8. The Tide will now begin a three-game consolation schedule against host St. John’s of Shrewsbury (2-6) tonight (Nov. 8), starting at 6 p.m. But Everett coach Justin Flores actually issued a warning in his assessment of the Patriots prior to last week’s game. “Revere is one of the top GBL teams, and even though they didn’t start the season fast, they have since come on in the last couple of weeks,” the second-year Everett coach said. Flores then summed up last week’s game rather succinctly. “The first two kickoffs led directly to 16 points (by Revere),” he said. Despite the loss, Flores did single out the contributions of Manny Santiago, who rushed for 112 yards on 12 carries, while scoring one of the three Everett touchdowns in the game. He also caught one pass for 15 yards. Joao Barreiros (1 reception for 13 yards; three carries for 37 yards and 1 touchdown), Yariel Ortiz (1 carry for 21 yards; three receptions for 24 yards), Carlos Rodrigues (1 reception for 10 yards; 8 carries for 35 yards and 1 touchdown; 4 completed passes for 41 yards) and Jeremiah Clark (6 carries for 12 yards; two receptions for 21 yards) also factored into Everett’s offensive statistics against Revere. But other than that, Flores further elaborated on the game by saying, “there’s really nothing to be happy about.” Flores, however, is moving on to hopefully complete the season on a winning note in order to get ready for 2025. “It won’t be a problem (to get ready for the next game),” the Everett coach said. Everett is now onto St. John’s of Shrewsbury (tonight, Nov. 8, in Shrewsbury at 6 p.m.), and Flores and his coaching staff have already scouted the Central Massachusetts school. “(St. John’s) plays a true spread offense, and will look to stack the box on defense,” Flores said. “They like to jam the wide receivers on the perimeter to throw their timing off, which makes it harder for the quarterback to complete passes.” For the second straight year, the Tide has not made the postseason, but Flores said it’s an entirely different scenario this fall. In 2023, they lost just one regular season game, but the power rankings kept them from participating in the playoffs. But regarding this year, Flores simply said, “we weren’t good enough, according to our record.”

They were doing all of this without starting goalie Douglas Landaverde, who was out with an injury. Sophomore Edwin Menjivar filled in nicely for him. “(Menjivar) stepped up and was incredible for us. He made a total of six saves in his first varsity start, while dealing with the pressures of postseason play,” said the first-year coach.

All interested parties may attend and opinions will be heard regarding the following petition. Whereas a petition has been presented by: Property Address: 27 Bradford Terr Everett, MA 02149 Map/Parcel: B0-01-000218 Property Owner: Dereje Beruck Haile 8 Bradford Terr. Everett, MA 02149 PROPOSAL: To convert the existing single family into a two-family residential dwelling Reason for Denial: Permit was denied in accordance with the City of Everett Zoning Ordinance as follows: Insufficient Lot Area: The subject property contains 3317 s.f. of area. Section 4.B.2 of the Zoning Ordinance requires 7,000 s.f. for a two-family dwelling. The existing structure is nonconforming as to side setback requirements, pursuant to the Everett Zoning Ordinance, Section 4.6.A (requiring a side setback of 4 feet with a total of 16 feet.) where (3.9) three feet nine inches is existing. The proposal will increase the nonconforming nature of the structure. The existing structure predates these requirements and is therefore a lawfully preexisting, non-conforming structure. The addition of a second dwelling unit will increase the nonconforming nature of the structure and therefore requires a Special Permit from the Zoning Board of Appeals, pursuant to Section 3.F of the Zoning Ordinance. REBECCA EDMONDSON KOREM - Chairman ROBERTA SUPPA - Clerk of Board of Appeals November 8, 15, 2024 tunately the momentum shifted in Beverly’s direction. The Panthers eventually scored the game-winner five minutes into the extra period. “It was a heartbreaking way to lose after having outplayed a strong Beverly team, who just won the Northeastern Conference,” said Landaverde. “We also faced them in the preseason, and lost to them, 6-1. “I was very happy with how we played them this time around,” added Landaverde. “We have shown incredible improvement throughout the season.” Landaverde also praised the individual efforts of Bryan Ribeiro, Luvens Hector, Efrain Ramos, Antony Henriquez, Santiago Arredondo, Timothy Figueroa Villanueva and Drissi. “All of these players really stood out on both offense and defense against Beverly,” he said. Landaverde used the words “grateful and happy” to have made it to the playoffs in his first year along the sidelines, while adding, “I was able to show our players and supporters that there’s a lot more to come. I can’t wait to begin to prepare for next season in order to continue to push the culture forward that we were able to build this year.” Going into this year’s playoffs, Landaverde felt very confident, because, as he put it, “I trusted our system and trusted all of our players after a long journey this season. We felt like we had plenty to show Beverly and the state. Each senior had a special role this year. Some brought back experience from previous seasons. They helped me live this season through them. For the newcomers, they adapted very well to a new culture, and were very receptive to each other and also being a part of a special team that was able to get things to click in a very short amount of time.” Landaverde admits the playoff loss to Beverly does hurt, but he’s still proud to have gotten Everett back into the playoffs with the best in the state. But now, it’s time to take that next step, and he confidently predicts, “it’s Everett’s turn to dominate in soccer over the next couple of years.” EVENTS | FROM PAGE 13 be provided to help you with your current work.

Maura Healey. There were no roll calls in the House or Senate last week. $2.5 MILLION FOR PROGRAMS TO TREAT PRISONERS SUFFERING FROM MENTAL ILLNESS (H 4800) House 133-25, overrode Gov. Healey’s veto of the entire $2.5 million for a prison program to treat prisoners, suff ering from serious mental illness, with clinically appropriate long-acting injectable medications. The Senate did not act on the veto so the veto stands and the $2.5 million was eliminated. “I am vetoing this item due to the availability of alternative resources,” said Gov. Healey in her veto message. “This operating funding overlaps with alternative funding intended to support this purpose.” (A “Yes” vote is for the $2.5 million. A “No” vote is against it.) Rep. Joseph McGonagle Yes $750,000 FOR THE TRANSFORMATIVE DEVELOPMENT FUND (H 4800) House 134-24, overrode Gov. Healey’s veto of $750,000 (reducing funding from $1 million to $250,000) for the Transformative Development Fund which is designed to accelerate economic development in focused districts that are walkable and have dense environments; and that have the potential to attract investment, inspire a wave of growth and transform Gateway Cities and beyond. The Senate did not act on the veto so the veto stands and the $750,000 was eliminated. “I am reducing this item to an amount consistent with my [budget] recommendation due to the availability of alternative resources,” said Gov. Healey in her veto message. “MassHousing will maximize available alternative capital funding in the fi scal year 2025 Capital Investment Plan for the Neighborhood Hub Program that will serve the same purpose as the funding being vetoed.” (A “Yes” vote is for the $750,000. A “No” vote is against it.) Rep. Joseph McGonagle Yes $300,000 FOR THE MASSACHUSETTS MANUFACTURING EXTENSION PARTNERSHIP (H 4800) House 156-2, overrode Gov. Healey’s veto of $300,000 (reducing funding from $2 million to $1.7 million) for the Massachusetts Manufacturing Extension Partnership to maintain and promote manufacturing as an integral part of the economy, and for proBEACON | SEE PAGE 26 - LEGAL NOTICE - COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS THE TRIAL COURT PROBATE AND FAMILY COURT Middlesex Probate and Family Court 10-U Commerce Way Woburn, MA 01801 (781) 865-4000 New Mass Estate Tax Exemption And Filing Threshold T he Masachusetts State Legislature increased the estate tax exemption to $2million effective for decedents dying on or after January 1, 2023, pursuant to Mass General Laws Chapter 50, Sections 36 and 37. Under the prior law, the estate tax exemption was only $1million. Under the prior law, if the descedent had a gross estate of $1,750,000 and then gave away $800,000 prior to dying, then the federal gross estate would be reduced to $950,000. Although the remaining gross estate of $950,000 was less than the $1million filing threshold, the $800,000 in gifts would reduce the fi ling threshold to $200,000 ($1million minus $800,000). The $200,000 became the adjusted filing threshold. Since the remaining gross estate of $950,000 exceeds the $200,000, an estate tax return would have to be fi led. The good news is that only the remaining gross estate of $950,000 would have been subject to the Massachusetts estate tax. The bad news was that all of the $950,000 would have been subject to the estate tax based upon the tax table found in the IRS instructions for the computation of the state death tax credit found in Table B of the Form 706 filing instructions (1999 Revision), the basis of how the Massachusetts estate tax is calculated to this day. The new Massachusetts estate tax provisions eliminate this adjusted fi ling threshold dilemma. As long as the gross estate is less than $2million, no estate tax return is required to be fi led, irrespective of anygifts made prior to death. Furthermore, if the gross estate is $3million, the first $2million is totally tax free. The Massachusetts estate tax on $2million is $99,600. Our state legislature has provided for a maximum tax credit equal to exactly $99,600. Therefore, only the gross estate in excess of $2million is subject to estate tax in Massachusetts. Granted, the beginning tax bracket will be 8%. As an example of how to apply the new Mass estate tax, assume a decedent has an estate valued at $3million. He gives away $1.1million prior to death leaving him with a gross estate at death of $1,900,000. Since $1,900,000 is less than $2million, there is no Massachusetts estate tax return necessary to be fi led. Taxpayers should at least realize that it might very well make sense to make a completed gift of bank account monies, for example, to children or to certain irrevocable trusts in order to remove such assets from the taxable estate. With bank accounts, we are not concerned with achieving the so-called step-up in cost basis equal to the date of death value, as we would be concerned with appreciated assets such as real estate or a stock portfolio. In fact, any asset that has not appreciated in value could be given away prior to death to minimize or eliminate the Mass estate tax. Joseph D.

THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, NOVEmbER 8, 2024 Page 25 ~Guest Commentary~ The “Cold War” Veteran By Peter A. Napolitano, AX2 – USN T he war in Vietnam ended offi - cially for the United States on January 27, 1973. Over the next few years, our Nation struggled with recovering from a decade long unpopular war. Our returning veterans were never properly recognized for their eff orts and sacrifi ce. By 1977, the last thing Americans wanted to hear about was their Armed Forces. The Draft was discontinued, military funding was drastically reduced, spare parts were diffi cult to come by and benefi ts were cut for newly enlisted personnel, referred to as the All-Volunteer Military.Pay was low and diffi cult to retain experienced servicemen, bringing our readiness to an all-time low. Our military was still expected to protect the United States and to honor our commitment to NATO and our allies making for a dangerous situation. The events of the late 70’s and early 80’s as well as the election of Ronald Reagan resulted in a drastic change in our readiness, but it wasn’t until 2001 that VA benefi ts were restored and veteran status was applied to all that served. Those of us that served between post-Vietnam and the pre-Desert Storm eras represent our All-Volunteer Armed Forces, our “sometimes” forgotten Veterans but more importantly, our Cold War Warriors. The 1970s was a “Golden Age” for the Soviet Navy in terms of tonnage and government focus, especially it’s submarine fleet. The Soviet submarine force was a potentially signifi cant threat to NATO’s own naval forces, including its ballistic missile submarines, and its sea lines of communications. This placed dozens of Soviet ballistic missile submarines with multiple nuclear warheads off both our coasts. For my part, I enlisted in the U.S. Navy in January of 1978 and left for basic training, two days before the “Blizzard of 78”. Like most of my peers at the time, I needed to make serious changes in my life. Like my father who served in the Army at the beginning of WWII, I also wanted to be a part of something bigger than myself. I trained as an Aviation Anti-Submarine Warfare Technician. For eight years, I was assigned to various Navel Air Stations, domestic and abroad, that launched P-3 Orion ASW Maritime patrol planes armed with torpedoes, mines, anti-ship missiles and bombs. Our squadron’s mission, to fi nd and track Soviet Submarines and if called on during war, to destroy them and protect our cities at all costs. Our squadrons would patrol for 14 to 18 hours non-stop in all weather conditions, searching for, fi nding and “poking” the Russian Bear like some bizarre form of hide and seek. This was a very dangerous game. No shots were fi red but the wear and tear on the nerves of our aircrews, the equipment, as well as the stakes we played for were as real as any shootout. Not all my shipmates came home. Many of us served during peacetime with the same determination in support of providing a deterrence, all to ensure the safety of our families and friends back home. America slept easy not knowing the true dangers outside our borders and that the sacrifi ce to our personal lives and the burdens to our families was worth the eff ort and part of the job. We willingly manned the wall in defense of our Nation with no thanks expected. There are many examples of the dedication and commitment of the Cold War Warrior to protect our freedoms. In closing, service to our Nation is both a privilege and an honor. I am forever grateful to the changes I experienced in my early life. It has guided me ever since and forged me into the man I am today. The Soviet Union is gone but has been replaced by new and equally terrifying threats that seek to establish themselves in the world. We seem to be entering a new cold war period but the likelihood that it could turn into a heated exchange is infl uenced by our indiff erence to domestic and world events. Our way of life is precious to all of us and will always need to be protected. So, in closing, Americans have paid the price for others liberty and freedoms around the world. Remember all our Veterans, living and deceased on November 11th . God Bless America and forever preserve our Democracy. If We Happen To Meet By Accident ... You’ll Be Glad You Found Us!

Supporters noted that although access to routine preventive screening mammograms is currently covered under the Affordable Care Act, this legislation would go further and require coverage for certain screenings and exams currently not uniformly covered by law. “I am grateful to see this legislation, which I have worked on for nearly a decade, move forward,” said sponsor Sen. Joan Lovely (D-Salem). “Early detection of breast cancer saves lives. This legislation makes those diagnostic exams used for early detection accessible and affordable, giving women the vital resources needed to catch breast cancer in its earliest stages.

Michael Rush (D-Boston). “We also know that for one out of every ten women, initial mammogram screenings are not sufficient to detect possible indicators of breast cancer. This legislation passed by the Senate … ensures that all women in the commonwealth have access to the digital breast tomosynthesis and MRI screening they need to catch cancer early without facing financial barriers.” DOWN SYNDROME (S 617) – The Senate approved and sent to the House legislation that would require health insurance companies to provide coverage for the treatment of Down syndrome through speech therapy, occupational therapy, physical therapy and applied behavior analysis services. “Every child deserves a fair shot at learning, growing and thriving in their community—and that includes children with Down syndrome,” said sponsor Sen. Julian Cyr (D-Provincetown). “Applied Behavioral Analysis (ABA) therapy has proven transformative for so many, yet too often, access to this essential support is out of reach for those who need it most. By ensuring insurance coverage for athome ABA therapy, this legislation will make a powerful difference for families across the commonwealth, lifting a burden that has existed for too long. It’s about time we make this gold-standard care accessible to all, so every child has the chance to realize their fullest potential.” An estimated 5,000 people in Massachusetts live with Down syndrome. According to studies performed by the American Speech-Language-Hearing Association, speech therapy intervention improved decoding skills for word reading and had a positive impact on articulation in children with Down syndrome. APPOINTMENT OF ATTORNEY TO OVERSEE ELECTION DAY PROBLEMS - Acting United States Attorney Joshua Levy appointed Assistant United States Attorney Lucy Sun as the District Election Officer who will oversee the handling of election day criminal complaints, threats of violence to election officials or staff and election fraud efforts. “Every citizen must be able to vote without fear, intimidation or interference and to have that vote counted in a fair and free election,” said Levy. “Similarly, election officials and staff must be able to serve without being subject to unlawful threats of violence. The Department of Justice will always work tirelessly to protect the integrity of the election process.” Anyone who sees a problem can call Levy’s office in Boston at (833) 634-8669. $24.6 MILLION TO IMPROVE FOOD SECURITY AND RESILIENCY – The Healey administration announced $24.6 million in grants to 163 Massachusetts food system enterprises to help sustain Massachusetts’ food production and distribution sectors. “Our food system is an integral part of our economy, our landscape, our culture and public health,” said Lt. Gov. Kim Driscoll. “These investments will help ensure that farmers, fishers, schools, distributors and other stakeholders can continue to produce food and that all Massachusetts residents rely on.” “As food producers face growing threats from climate change, the [grant] program helps farmers and fishers build resilience so that they can adapt,” said Massachusetts Executive Office of Energy and Environmental Affairs Secretary Rebecca Tepper. “From changing weather patterns to new invasive species to worker health concerns, our food producers must constantly innovate to remain sustainable, and we are proud to help them do so.” “As we learned from the COVID pandemic, food insecurity is a real problem in the commonwealth for too many families, said Chair of the Senate Ways and Means Committee Sen. Mike Rodrigues (D-Westport). “I have made addressing this disparity a priority and have worked closely with the Healey-Driscoll administration to help grow and sustain food production for our farming communities in the state.” $7.8 MILLION TO ENHANCE SECURITY AT NONPROFITS – Gov. Healey announced the awarding of federal funds to 56 nonprofits that are at heightened risk of an extremist attack in the Bay State. “These faith-based and community nonprofits play such a critical role in our communities, and we are proud to deliver this funding that will help them implement security measures to keep their residents safe and ensure peace of mind,” said Gov. Healey. “We’re grateful to the Biden-Harris Administration for making this funding available to ensure these organizations can continue to BEACON | SEE PAGE 28 serve those who depend on

The first year alone, if we were able to put that together in Massachusetts, we’d raise close to $22 million.” ---Cynthia Poirier, an assessor in Brimfield and Holland, urging Gov. Healey to issue an executive order to create a committee to develop recommendations on providing assistance to the many Bay State homeowners dealing with crumbling concrete foundations, caused by pyrite or pyrrhotite minerals, which could eventually render their houses unlivable. “The Healey-Driscoll Administration recognizes the importance of providing support to homeowners whose concrete REAL ESTATE TRANSACTIONS Copyrighted material previously published in Banker & Tradesman/The Commercial Record, a weekly trade newspaper.

We will continue to work together with our partners in the Legislature to evaluate potential solutions that would provide relief to homeowners.” ---Karissa Hand, spokesperson for Gov. Healey, responding to a State House News Service question asking whether the governor is willing to issue the executive order to create a committee to explore providing assistance to homeowners dealing with crumbling concrete foundations. “The public should expect strong, clear and specific recommendations when our work is complete. We will approach thorny questions humbly, diligently and with an open mind. We will do our best to draw in voices that are not already represented on this commission, including but not limited to, Orthodox Jews, Israeli Jews and those who may have differing opinions about what counts as antisemitism.” ---Rep. Simon Cataldo (D-Concord) co-chair of the newly established Special State Commission for Addressing Antisemitism, which held its first meeting last week. “The latest report … underscores the main issue driving residents out of Massachusetts. Oppressive taxes aren’t just a business community concern. This is a quality of life issue for everyone in the commonwealth. Our polling shows 80 percent of people agree Massachusetts taxes are too high. The long-term consequences aren’t hypothetical. If we don’t turn the tide, we will continue to lose talented residents, families and entrepreneurs to states with more competitive taxes.” ---ChrisAnderson, president of the Massachusetts High Technology Council, on the release of the Tax Foundation 2025 State Tax Competitiveness Index, which rankedMassachusetts among the 10 worst states in the country (41st out of 50).

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 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 ADDRESS CITY DATE Everett Everett 10.04.24 10.01.24 Everett 10.01.24 PRICE 850000 675000 900000 days immediately preceding the end of an annual session.
