In 2022, we worked diligently to engage with neighbors all across the district and built up a true coalition that reflected our beautifully diverse community that I am proud to call home. Together, we came just 50 votes shy of an anti-choice, anti-LGBTQ, 22year incumbent. Our time is now to change the face of politics, and with the experience and relationships we possess, the energy for our movement is strong. Medford and Malden deserve a legislator who will fight for the issues impacting all of our neighbors and we need someone who accurately represents our values: Respect, Dedication, and Inclusivity. Someone who will put our neighbors first above all rhetoric and divides. It is clear that our current leadership does not reflect that, and we must move forward. In 2024, I know we can win this race. I am not running this race for me, but I am running to uplift members of the community who will finally be able to have leadership that they see themselves reflected in. I am running for those who wish to be heard and deserve a seat at the table. I am running for those who have felt ignored and disenchanted by the political process, and for generations to come. We need someone who will put our neighbors first above all rhetoric and divides, and we need the support, dedication, and love of an entire community to achieve the representation that the working families of Medford and Malden deserve! I am looking forward to the campaign ahead, and the bright future for our community is just across the horizon. It’s time to put our Neighbors First.

In November 2022, Massachusetts voters approved the Fair Share Amendment. Households with annual income exceeding $1 million now pay an additional 4% state income tax on the portion of their income above $1 million. The new revenue received by the state must be used only for education and transportation purposes. As part of the Fiscal Year 2024 budget passed this summer, the state legislature appropriated $100 million of Fair Share Amendment revenue for local transportation improvements. This builds upon the annual allocation of $200 million in Chapter 90 funds provided by the state to cities and towns, effectively representing a 50% increase in this vital funding source for local transportation and infrastructure improvements. “I’m very pleased that Malden will be receiving these funds from the state to improve roads, sidewalks, intersections, and other critical local infrastructure,” said Senator Lewis. “I was proud to help lead the effort to pass the Fair Share Amendment and it is gratifying to see this new revenue being put to such good use for our communities.” “With the passage of the Fair Share Amendment a year ago, voters affirmed the Commonwealth’s commitment to invest Celebrating Our 52nd Year Chris 2024 and improve upon transportation infrastructure in communities throughout the state,” said Representative Donato. “I am thrilled to see Malden receive these crucial funds to maintain and improve upon the city’s transportation infrastructure.” “I am excited to see these important Fair Share Amendment funds support Malden’s specific infrastructure needs,” said Representative Ultrino. “I am proud to have worked with my colleagues in the Malden delegation to successfully advocate for this allocation, and I look forward to seeing the results in the coming months.” “I am glad Malden will receive significant additional State funding to use for its local transportation and infrastructure priorities,” said Representative Lipper-Garabedian. “This enhanced investment from the State will provide meaningful opportunities to enhance quality of life for City residents.” In addition to this funding for local transportation improvements, the Fair Share Amendment revenue is being used for things such as to provide universal free school meals (both breakfast and lunch) for all Massachusetts public K-12 students, to significantly increase financial aid to low- and middle-income students attending Massachusetts public colleges and universities and to invest in safety, reliability and service improvements at the MBTA.

THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, January 19, 2024 Page 5 Malden House delegation applauds passage of bill enhancing protections for survivors House unanimously passes bill addressing teen sexting, image-based sexual assault, and coercive control; extends statute of limitations for some domestic violence offenses O n January 10, 2024, the Massachusetts House of Representatives passed (151-0) An Act to prevent abuse and exploitation (H.4241), a bill that includes several separate legislative initiatives that will help to prevent abuse and exploitation while also enhancing protections for survivors. The legislation addresses teen sexting and image-based sexual assault – commonly referred to as “revenge porn” – expands the defi nition of abuse to include coercive control for the purposes of obtaining a restraining order and extends the statute of limitations for certain domestic violence off enses from six years to 15 years. On January 11, the Senate referred the bill to its committee on Ways and Means. Currently, minors who possess, purchase or share explicit photos of themselves or other minors are charged with violating Massachusetts child pornography laws and are required to register as sex offenders. H.4241 instead authorizes commitment to the Department of Youth Services (DYS), but also allows minors to be diverted to an educational program in lieu of criminal punishment. An educational diversion program that would be created by the Attorney General in consultation with the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE), DYS and the Massachusetts District Attorneys Association would provide teenagers with information about the legal and nonlegal consequences of sexting, which would be made available to school districts. DESE would also encourage districts to implement media literacy programs in their schools as a prevention measure. Additionally, the bill addresses similar issues of nonconsensual distribution of explicit images with adults by establishing a penalty in existing criminal harassment statute, including up to two and a half years of prison time and/or a fi ne of up to $10,000. Under this bill, a victim may also petition the court for a harassment prevention order against an individual who has violated this statute. The bill has also added coercive control to the defi nition of abuse. Coercive control is defi ned as a nonphysical form of abuse which includes a pattern of behavior or a single act intended to threaten, intimidate, harass, isolate, control, coerce or compel compliance of a family or household member that causes the family or household member to fear physical harm or to have a reduced sense of physical safety or autonomy. Lastly, the bill seeks to extend the statute of limitations for assault and battery on a family or household member or against someone with an active protective order from six years to 15 years – bringing the statute of limitations for these domestic violence off enses in line with the statute of limitations for rape, assault with intent to commit rape, and sex traffi cking. “This bill takes a critical step forward by provided enhanced protections to survivors across the Commonwealth,” said State Representative Steve Ultrino (D-Malden). “For many survivors, their experience with abuse extends beyond just physical violence and this bill shows that we as a legislature are not only acknowledging their emotional and psychological trauma, but also taking concrete steps to ensure those all victims of abuse are protected. Thank you to the Speaker, Chairman Day and my House colleagues for championing this bill. I look forward to and urge the Senate to vote in support of this legislation.” “This ever-so important legislation is vital in protecting survivors from abuse and exploitation,” said Representative Paul Donato (D-Medford). “I am proud of my colleagues for once again prioritizing this crucial legislation and I urge the Senate to take action and put this issue behind us.” “I was proud to join a unanimous House in supporting H4241, An Act to prevent abuse and exploitation,” said State Representative Kate Lipper-Garabedian (D-Melrose). “This comprehensive bill is critical in supporting survivors and those experiencing domestic and sexual violence. Throughout my career, I have worked to ensure state laws are attuned to technological developments, including more than a decade ago when I worked as an attorney in private practice counseling states about the need for statutory updates to address teen sexting. This bill takes critical steps to protect victims of revenge porn and survivors of coercive control and to educate minors about the longterm dangers of certain digital behavior.” SABATINO INSURANCE AGENCY 519 BROADWAY EVERETT, MA 02149 Auto * Home * Boat * Renter * Condo * Life * Multi-Policy Discounts * Commercial 10% Discounts * Registry Service Also Available Sabatino Insurance is proud to welcome the loyal customers of PHONE: (617) 387-7466 FAX: (617) 381-9186 Visit us online at: WWW.SABATINO-INS.COM

It started way back in the mid-1980’s when Extreme had to travel to The Living Room in Providence, Rhode Island, to earn local respect. Boston ignoring them – instead heaping praise and hosannas on skinny tie and shoegazing bands favored by the college crowd. Fast forward to 2022; Extreme opening for their idols – Aerosmith – at Fenway Park; completely ignored by print and electronic media leading up to the gig, Extreme take total control of the stage and play as if center fi eld at Fenway was their living room (pun intended), making Steven & Joe up their game in the process. An epic night followed. The year 2023 is no different. In ’23 they released their latest studio album, “6.” I love it! The simplicity in the title belies the aural onslaught that follows! Since the release they’ve set the music world on fi re: getting a Grammy mention, touring incessantly and garnering praise from the whole universe – especially in the far corners of the globe where hard rock never went out of style. Oh yeah, Boston ignores them still. It’s a shame but expected. Nuno, Patrick, Gary and now Fig could care less. They never did. They just play – as if every show were their last. Playing harder, with more heart, with more panache than anybody else! They are currently on the “never ending tour” (hello, Bob Dylan) traversing the world right now, selling out large and small venues alike, moving records by the bucketload and (not surprisingly) turning a new generation of pilgrims on to some of the best hard rock ever to come out of Bawston – even if Beantown won’t admit it.

He adopted me and my children as his own and I will always adore him for that. He was a legend in his time, a fi refi ghter hero (aren’t they all) and I have never met a man yet who loved his family more, especially his grandchildren. His love for animals, great and small, and his unending supply of cookies. His circle of friends is huge, as it should be, and he will be greatly missed. I loved our talks, friendship, and support.

Nelio Barbosa was rushed to Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston on that Saturday, where he later died from the gunshot wounds. Surveillance video coverage in that section of North Shore Road/Rt. 1A enhanced an intense investigation, providing solid evidence that led to the arrest of a prime suspect in the shooting, Carlos Lemon, 27. der about a week after the fatal shooting of Barbosa. He pleaded not guilty in Suffolk District Court. Jury selection began on January 10 for Lemon’s murder trial in Suffolk Superior Court, which is located at 3 Pemberton Square, Boston.

So not a bad first half in that Senior Joao Santos with MHS Head Coach Jess Bisson By Steve Freker T he Malden High Coed Swim Team honored six veteran swimmers at its Senior Night ceremony held at Barry Fitzpatrick Pool at Malden High School. Following the ceremony, the team went out and captured an impressive win, 89-51, over the Lynn English Bulldogs. The victory lifted Malden to a perfect 4-0 record in the Greater Boston League (GBL) and 4-1 overall.

With a win over Revere, Malden would clinch its fourth straight undefeated Senior Stanley Yip with Malden Head Coach Jess Bisson sense, considering the injuries and illnesses on the squad and the youth throughout the lineup. Craig Richards, head coach of the cooperative team that includes players from Everett, Malden, Revere and Mystic Valley high schools, has been impressed with the team's ability to compete when they are at full strength. Their success is often contingent on their physicality. Now if those illnesses would just go away. “It seems to be only getting Senior Joyce Zhou with MHS Head Coach Jess Bisson league season. “We are grateful to our seniors who provided great leadership and guidance for our team this year,” Malden head coach Jess Bisson said. “We are hoping to finish off another season with another GBL title.” worse, to be honest,” Richards said. “I want to say we've had a minimum of one guy out just about every day with some sort of illness. We've had everything from conjunctivitis to stomach bugs to upper respiratory. I mean, it's just been crazy.” What’s not crazy is when the team puts things together. And that was showcased in the team’s 8-7 win over Nashoba on the road Jan. 10. Everett was clicking on all cylinders on offense and showed the cohesion for which it’s capable. Granted, Richards would have liked to see a better effort on the defensive end, but the victory was huge nonetheless – and should serve as a motivator for the second half of the season. “Nashoba Tech is a ranked Senior Larissa Retamero Granja with mom and dad and many other family members (All Advocate Photos by Henry Huang) team,” Richards said. “And we took them 8-7 in overtime which was a huge win. It was a big upset and then the next day we come back and a couple guys are out, and you see what happens (8-1 loss to Stoneham). Depth is key in high school sports, and if you don’t have that depth, it’s very tough to compete.” Freshman Tommy Cronin reaches for the puck in recent action against Medford. Richards appreciates the team's physical style of play, especially during its significant win over Nashoba; he desires to see more of this.

All one had to do was look around the facility where she made a major announcement – the Mystic Valley YMCA on Dartmouth Street – and see the place teeming with little ones. “The reason why we are all here today?” Governor Healey told the many in attendance Wednesday, from all levels of government and education. “It’s these guys,” she said, gesturing to the large group of four-yearold boys and girls who were blissfully at play and learning at the “Y” this day.

January 19, 2024 Governor Healey and Lieutenant Governor Kim Driscoll joined with Malden, state and federal elected officials as well as local and state school leaders to unveil the “Gateway to Pre-K” initiative. The initiative will directly provide financial relief to caregivers and support of access to early education and child care to many more families in this city and far beyond, if fully funded in the FY25 Mass. budget. Delivering universal, high-quality preschool access for four year olds in all Gateway Cities by the end of 2026 Every family of a four-yearold child in these 26 communities will have the opportunity – at a low or no cost – to enroll their child in a high-quality preschool program that prepares them for kindergarten. Increasing Child Care Financial Assistance (CCFA) eligibility from 50 percent of the state median income (SMI) to 85 percent SMI will help an additional 4,000 low- and moderate-income families afford care. Continuing Commonwealth Cares for Children (C3) grants in FY25, providing stable funding for programs to improve quality, pay facility costs and hire more staff, thereby will create more classrooms where families can enroll their children in affordable child care. The Commonwealth Preschool Partnership Initiative (CPPI) is currently in 12 Gateway Cities (Brockton, Fall River, Haverhill, Holyoke, Lawrence, Lowell, Lynn, Malden, New Bedford, Salem, Springfield and Westfield). Through investments in the FY25 budget, the administration is proposing to expand CPPI into the 14 remainLEGAL NOTICE ing Gateway Cities over the next two years. Governor Healey announced her Gateway to Pre-K agenda in Malden, an example of a Gateway City that has benefited from CPPI, providing access to high-quality preschool through multiple partners: Malden Public Schools, Malden Early Education and Learning Program, Cheverus Catholic School, Little Love Bugs Daycare, My Little Best Friends Early Learning Center and Malden YMCA. Through CPPI, Malden has standardized the use of a high-quality preschool curriculum that integrates evidence-based practices in early literacy, as well as coordinates and intentionally aligns policies, assessments and professional development. Although the CPPI program is relatively new, Malden leaders have already noticed the significant impact. “We all in Malden Public Schools love this program because we see it is going to have a big trajectory, big picture for students from prekindergarten to grade 12 to be ready for what every they want to do in life. It also allows our teachers and the community-based teachers to share in best practices and professional development, furtherREVIEW | FROM PAGE 13 performance, including senior forward Jake Simpson of Malden, who has shown versatility by playing both defense and forward effectively. Other notable contributors contributing to the scoreboard include senior forward Lucas Deguire of Mystic Valley, sophomore forward Frankie Annunziata of Revere and sophomore forward Michael Brandano of Mystic Valley. Defensively, the team has been led by senior defenseman Jackie Summers of Malden and freshman defenseman Tommy Cronin of Malden. Freshman goalie Ray Blauvelt of Everett is gaining experience and has showed promise. “He’s had his great games, and he's had his not-so-great games,” Richards said. “But you know, overall he's definitely given us what we expected if not a little bit more.” Ultimately, the team comprises a mix of seniors and younging their impact and sense of community,” said Malden Public Schools Superintendent Ligia Noriega-Murphy. Malden Ward 4 Councillor Ryan O’Malley said, “I would like to thank Governor Healey and her administration for recognizing the early childhood education needs of working families in gateway cities. The economic health of Massachusetts is inextricably tied to the quality of education available in bellwether communities like Malden. This proposal is a needed step towards reimagining education funding in the Commonwealth.” Malden Ward 8 School Committee member Sharyn RoseZeiberg said, “The importance of early education in children’s development has long been recognized. However, too many families have faced roadblocks to gaining access to affordable, high quality early education, preschool and care. I am excited and encouraged by the Governor’s plans to address the needs of our State’s families.” Malden caregivers and many others in the region are grateful for the unprecedented show of support for more and access and relief in Governor Healey’s plan. er players, including freshmen and sophomores, who are making significant contributions. However, the coach is mindful of the challenge they will face next year with the departure of many seniors. The team gets into its final portion of Greater Boston League play in Games 11, 12 and 14. It was set to take on Somerville on the road Jan. 17 and has Medford (Jan. 20, on the road, 4 p.m.) and Lynn (Jan. 27, home, 6 p.m.). It added a makeup game against Taunton Jan. 26. The coach emphasizes the need for the team to be ready and to play with the same intensity and physicality as they have shown in their best games. “I want to see more physical style of play, which is what made us successful in that Nashoba game,” Richards said. “We have a few games with teams that are ranked higher, so these games are really important for us. These guys need to be ready to come to play.”

These withdrawals are known as Required Minimum Distributions (RMD’s). If the account owner dies prior to the Required Beginning Date (RBD), the date the account owner must begin withdrawing monies from the IRA account or 401(k) account, the beneficiary must empty out the account by the end of the 10th year following the account owner’s death. If the account owner dies after the RBD, the beneficiary must withdraw monies out of the inherited IRA or 401(k) account each year and must also empty the account by the end of the 10th year after the account owner’s death. The RBD is now age 73 under the SECURE ACT 2.0. Pursuant to IRS Notice 202253, the IRS intends on following this approach. As an example of how this area of the tax law operates in practice, assume a mother and father both die in a simultaneous death. The mother is age 69 and the father is age 74. They have one child who is named the 100% secondary beneficiary of each of their IRA accounts. Since the mother had not yet reached her RBD, the child simply needs to empty out this inherited IRA account by the end of the 10TH year following her death. No annual RMDs are required. Since the father died after his RBD, the child needs to withdraw annual RMDs from this inherited IRA account over a 10- year period and must also empty it out by the end of the 10th year following his death. If an IRA or 401(k) owner dies before his RBD and the beneficiary is the owner’s estate or a nonqualifying Trust, the beneficiary must empty out the account by the end of the 5th year following the account owner’s death. No RMDs are required during this fiveyear period. If, however, the account owner dies after his RBD, the estate or nonqualifying Trust can withdraw the remaining account balance over the remaining life expectancy in years of the account owner reduced by 1 each year after death. This is often referred to as the “ghost” life expectancy. If a qualifying Trust is the beneficiary of the IRA or 401(k) plan, then the five-year period is extended to 10 years. Essentially, the Trust must be a conduit or see-through Trust meaning the beneficiaries are clearly identified pursuant to the provisions of the Trust. Once the account owner starts withdrawing RMDs, they cannot subsequently be turned off after his or her death. If, however, the surviving spouse is the beneficiary of the IRA or 401(k) account, he or she can establish his or her own “spousal” IRA account and refrain from taking RMDs so long as he or she has not yet obtained the age of 73 under the SECURE ACT 2.0. Once reaching the age of 73, RMDs must be withdrawn based upon the IRS life expectancy tables. Joseph D.

Page 16 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, January 19, 2024 avavvyvy avvy S iorn oreniioor a avvy iori by Jim Miller Are You at Risk of Developing Glaucoma? Dear Savvy Senior, What can you tell me about the eye disease glaucoma? My older brother was recently diagnosed with it and lost some of his vision, but never had a clue anything was wrong. Could I be at risk too? Stressed Sibling Dear Stressed, Yes! Having an immediate family member with glaucoma signifi cantly increases your risks of developing it, but there are other risk factors you need to be aware of too. Here’s what you should know. What is Glaucoma? Glaucoma is a group of eye diseases that can damage the optic nerve and cause vision loss and blindness if it’s not treated. This typically happens because the fl uids in the eye don’t drain properly, causing increased pressure in the eyeball. But the scary thing about glaucoma is that with no early warning signs or pain, most people that have it don’t realize it until their vision begins to deteriorate. While there are two main types of glaucoma, the most common form that typically aff ects older adults is called open-angle glaucoma. This disease develops very slowly when the eye’s drainage canals become clogged over time, leading to blind spots in the peripheral or side vision. By the time you notice it, the permanent damage is already done. Are You at Risk? It’s estimated that more than 3 million Americans have glaucoma today, but that number is expected to surge to more than 6.3 million by 2050. If you answer “yes” to any of the following questions, you’re at increased risk of developing it. • Are you African American, Hispanic/Latino American or Asian American? • Are you over age 60? • Do you have an immediate family member with glaucoma? • Do you have diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, migraines or have extreme nearsightedness or farsightedness? • Have you had a past eye injury? • Have you used corticosteroids (for example, eye drops, pills, inhalers, and creams) for long periods of time? What to Do Early detection is the key to guarding against glaucoma. So, if you’re age 40 or older and have any of the previously mentioned risk factors, especially if you’re African American, you need to get a comprehensive eye examination every 18 to 24 months. Or, if you notice some loss of peripheral vision, get to the eye doctor right away. If you’re a Medicare benefi ciary, annual eye examinations are covered for those at high risk for glaucoma. Or if you don’t have vision coverage, contact EyeCare America, a national public service program that provides free glaucoma eye exams through a pool of more than 4,600 volunteer ophthalmologists. Visit AAO.org/eyecare-america or call 877-887-6327 to learn more. While there’s currently no cure for glaucoma, most cases can be treated with prescription eye drops, which reduce eye pressure and can prevent further vision loss. It cannot, however, restore vision already lost from glaucoma. If eye drops don’t work, your doctor may recommend oral medication, laser treatments, incisional surgery or a combination of these methods. For more information on glaucoma, visit the National Eye Institute at NEI.nih.gov, and the Glaucoma Research Foundation at Glaucoma.org. Send your senior questions to: Savvy Senior, P.O.

Eddie’s death was tragic for the family and had a rough impact on the city as a whole.” • Speaking of one of the most horrifi c days in Malden history – the 1963 murder of Eddie Callahan by evil incarnate – whose name I will not write; a short conversation with current Malden Police Commissioner and local bon vivant Sal “Butch” Gennetti reveals that Butchie is the last man standing, so to speak. The last offi cer on duty that fateful night in ’63 who is still alive today. I love it when I run into Butch. Such an inspiring man whom I have looked up to my entire life. I’ll never forget the fi rst time Butchie called me by fi rst name! I had a (expletive deleted) eating grin on my face the rest of the weekend. I was somebody in Edgeworth! As Peter Falk’s iconic TV character Columbo would say, “Just one more thing, sir” – “An Empty Bottle, A Broken Heart, & You’re Still on My Mind”...back in the “shake it off ” late 1950’s at the University of Miami, Ernie Ardolino Sr. outran some of the biggest, some of the baddest, some of the most vicious linemen playing college football. In the ensuing years, navigating an ever-changing society, Ernie was also able to stay one step ahead and outrun the crazies and their “cancel culture” breathing down his neck (insert smiley face). But he was not able to outsprint the great equalizer nipping at his heels, “Father Time.” Ernie is no longer with us, but we will hold his memory and the thousands of stories – most of which cannot be printed in a family newspaper – near and dear to our hearts. For those who believe, he now resides in the Highland Cafe in the sky.

Paul Gennetti trying to keep his sanity as the Highland regulars make their way through those hallowed portals of the place where most of us grew up, the cozy confi nes of the last of a dying breed, Malden’s “Archie’s Place” – the Highland Cafe. Though no longer amongst us physically, Ernie’s presence ain’t going anywhere, anytime soon. Papa Ardolino – we salute you, my friend, and I am pretty sure you would have loved the sendoff your family threw for you!
