Matheson said the response he is receiving has exceeded expectations. “A mayor race is an extremely rare thing in Malden, and the excitement is palpable. When we have a mayor race, the power shifts back to The People. It holds us all accountable, and makes sure we listen to their issues and address their concerns. This is where our priorities should come from. In many ways, the timing is perfect, as the issues of over-development of apartments, missed opportunities for commercial growth, broken roads and water pipes, and the lingering issue of trash and recycling collection are all coming to a head. I want The People to know: I hear you, and I will not let you down.”

THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, May 17, 2019 Page 3 Residents remain divided over Roosevelt Park plan By Barbara Taormina E veryone wants the city to restore Roosevelt Park, but not everyone agrees on how best go about it. On Monday night, city officials hosted a neighborhood meeting at Salemwood School to discuss a $2.6 million plan to refurbish the park and install a synthetic turf athletic fi eld. On Tuesday night, Julie Orsino, chair of the city’s Community Preservation Committee, was at the City Council meeting to recommend that councillors approve a $1.4 million bonding request to fund Roosevelt Park improvements except for the synthetic turf, which can’t be paid for with community preservation funds. The loan would be repaid over the next 10 years with the city’s preservation dollars. Roosevelt Park, which is next to Salemwood School, has generated a lot of heated discussion around the question of whether the city should go with synthetic turf or natural grass. But before weighing the pros and cons of either option, it seems important to recognize why some residents are troubled with how the plans for the park seems to be evolving. Ward 5 Councillor Barbara Murphy and Councillor-at-Large Stephen Winslow hosted this week’s neighborhood meeting that included a presentation by Stephen O’Neill from Hayner/Swanson, the engineering fi rm that has designed the proposed renovations to the 3.7-acre park. The councillors also invited a landscape architect and an independent toxicologist to the meeting to answer questions from the audience. Several coaches and parents of kids involved in sports programs were also at the meeting to support the proposed improvement plan. So who wasn’t there? Except for a handful of parents and teachers, hardly anyone from the families of the 1,200 kids in grades K-8 who attend Salemwood School were at the meeting because, according to Kathleen Sullivan, a teacher at Salemwood, no one told them about it. Sullivan, who believes that synthetic turf poses health and environmental risks, said there were no notices or robo calls to parents whose children could be playing on the artifi cial grass for up to nine years. Sullivan also questioned the proposed field design, which calls for two softball fi elds within a larger rectangular multipurpose fi eld which would be able to accommodate other sports, such as soccer, lacrosse and fi eld hockey. She said that when asked about the park, Salemwood students said they most wanted a basketball court, some swings and a water fountain. “Why do Salemwood students and their families not have a voice in our community?” she asked. For nearly a decade, Malden has been looking for funding to renovate Roosevelt Park in order to increase open space and recreational opportunities for the city’s diverse community. Investing in synthetic turf fi elds has been part of the city’s strategy of meeting the demand for athletic fi elds, particularly for youth sports. Of the nearly 500 residents Seeking volunteers to place fl ags at Malden cemeteries for Memorial Day F rom Monday, May 13 through Friday May 24, 2019, the City of Malden and volunteers will decorate veterans’ graves at the five cemeteries in the city. For this Memorial Day, volunteers are needed to help place fl ags at veterans’ graves in preparation to honor all who served. If you have a few hours available to volunteer and assist in placing fl ags at veterans’ graves, please call the Vetwho responded to a survey taken in conjunction with the crafting of Malden’s Open Space and Recreation Plan, almost 60 percent said they strongly agreed that the city needs more athletic fi elds. But that left 40 percent of those who responded either strongly disagreeing with the need for more fi elds, or neutral on the subject. In addition to reporting that divide in opinion on more playing fields, the plan recommends that Malden address the competition for fi eld time by better scheduling and encouraging teams to make use of early morning and early evening hours. The plan also recommends annual reports on team participation and fi eld use to better assess the city’s needs and interests. During Monday’s meeting it was suggested that the city step back and rethink the plan for Roosevelt Park and its athletic field. Some wondered if it were possible to have a softball fi eld and a basketball court or some other combination of facilities that might respond to the interests of Salemwood students. If the city does move forward with the plan that’s been developed, it seems unlikely that natural grass will win out over synthetic turf. O’Neill has explained repeatedly that Roosevelt Park has natural characteristics that make the site a drainage disaster and an overall challenge to design. He explained that a natural grass surface with drainage problems means far less playing time on the fi eld while synthetic turf is playable soon after it rains. 505 Broadway Everett, MA 02149 Tel: 617-387-1120 www.gkdental.com erans’ Services Department at 781-397-7139 and provide your name, contact telephone number and the dates and times that you are available. • Family Dentistry • Crowns • Bridges • Veneers/Lumineers • Dental Implants • All on 4 Dental Implants • Emergency Dentist • Kid Friendly Dentist • Root Canals • Dentures • Invisalign Braces • Snap On Smile • Teeth Whitening We are the smile care experts for your entire family And there are also construction and disposal costs. Installing synthetic turf would require removing 15 inches of the urban fi ll just below the grass at the park. To build a natural grass fi eld would require removing three feet of urban fi ll which, as the name suggests, is loaded with all types of ugly stuff . And the cost of carting away and disposing that fi ll in a licensed landfi ll is severe. Much of the concern about health risks connected to synthetic turf is due to the industry’s use of crumb rubber created from recycled tires to create a playing surface. During Monday night’s meeting, Winslow said the city will look at some of the available alternatives to crumb rubber, such as coconut fibers, cork and walnut-based products. “We will look at the cost when it comes in,” he said. “And we will work with consultants to make sure we are getting a long-lasting product.” In House Dental Plan for $399 (Cleanings, X-Rays, Exams twice a year and 20% OFF Dental work) Schedule your FREE Consultations today

Biker’s Outfitter tee has worked consistently to ensure a quality education for all of its students. Our city has faced tough financial times and may continue to do so going forward. This situation is not unique to Malden. It is happening not just across Massachusetts, but all across our nation. As a taxpayer I am keenly aware of what our city can afford to spend, and I, along with other members of the school committee have kept a sharp eye on the “bottom line”. Faced with the continuing possibly of cuts to school budgets at the state and federal levels, my focus remains the same. I want to ensure a high quality educational experience while maintaining fi scal responsibility. The current student enrollment in Malden is 6,730 students. This enrollment number includes students with a wide range of educational, emotional, and physical challenges. Additionally, a large number of our children come from homes where English is not the family’s fi rst language. Our mission of ensuring quality education for all is not only a quality of life issue, it is mandated by state and federal laws. Educating children requires that parents maintain a strong, equal partnership with their child’s teacher. This partnership builds accountability, transparency, and a mutual respect. Because I spent nearly thirty-six (36) years in the Malden Public Schools as both a teacher and principal, I understand that partnership. I believe that I have the ability, qualifi cations, and knowledge of the issues that need solutions. I am a focused individual who listens intently and who values building a consensus to reach a decision. I have the experience to help children, parents, and taxpayers of Malden attain the highest quality education experience possible while addressing the fi scal realities in which all of us must live. Therefore, I ask for your continued support and for your vote in the upcoming city elections this fall. Sincerely, Leonard Iovino Sen.

Page 8 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, May 17, 2019 Residents seek more teachers of color, seniors recognized for educational pursuits By Tara Vocino M embers of Malden Community Organizing for Racial Equity (CORE) asked the School Committee to support the district’s focus on hiring a staff that is ethnically and culturally representative of the student body. “We have more than 90 percent white educators,” Malden CORE member Mekka Smith said. “Studies are done that there needs to be 30 percent [of the same race] to feel comfortable. But Malden only has nine percent.” Smith said Superintendent of Schools John Oteri is attending hiring fairs to recruit more teachers of color, which she said is a great fi rst step. She asked the School Committee to look at the demographics of the student-to-staff ratio and consider making goals around hiring and retaining staff of color. Lawrence A.

THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, May 17, 2019 Page 11 Annual Boston’s Wounded Vet Run this Sunday beginning in Revere Registration begins at 8:30 a.m. and kickstands up at 12:30 p.m. By Th e Advocate O n Sunday, May 19, over 6,000 motorcycle enthusiasts are expected to show their support for combat veterans at the 9th Annual Boston Wounded Vet Run, a 90-minute motorcycle ride through Malden, Melrose, Wakefield, Saugus, Revere and East Boston to raise money in support and honor of severely wounded military veterans. This year’s Run is dedicated to wounded heroes Hunter Joselyn, Cory Remsburg, Ben Gardner, JD Williams and Jarod Luce. Those who want to take part but prefer not to ride can meet motorcycle riders, this year’s honorees and New England veterans at the closing ceremony at Anthony’s on Canal Street in Malden – beginning at 12:30 p.m. – featuring music, food, a beer tent and guest speakers. Registration begins at 8:30 a.m. and kickstands up at 12:30 p.m. The rain date for the event is Sunday, May 26. The event each year aims to raise money for New England Veterans who were severely injured in overseas combat. The run starts at Boston Harley-Davidson in Revere and ends in Malden for a ceremony and events. Expect traffic delays during the run from the morning hours in and around Rte. 60 in Revere. The route will have motorcyclists leaving Harley-Davidson in Revere at 12:30 heading to Salem Street to Lincoln Avenue into Cliftondale Square, Saugus, to Central Street, turning left towards Main Street to Wakefi eld to Lynn Fells Parkway, Melrose, then right to South Street, Stoneham, past the Stone Zoo, left onto Rte. 28 to Roosevelt Circle in Medford to Rte. 28 in Medford to left onto Medford Street to Canal Street in Malden. sors and others who want to join in on the festivities at Suffolk Downs hours and hours after our ride ends,” said Biggio. THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE: Attendees of last year’s annual Wounded Vet Run thank the honorees seated in front of the stage for their sacrifice and service at Boston HarleyDavidson in Revere before the motorcycle run. (Advocate fi le photo) Andrew Biggio, the founder of Boston’s Wounded Vet Run, came up with the idea nine years ago when he met someone from the military who had just come home from Iraq and needed a new roof for his house. “I thought we should do something for him to get the money he needs,” said Biggio. “Afterwards, I decided this was something we should do every year.” Biggio says the atmosphere at these events is welcoming and can be really touching to the veterans who are honored. “It’s a good way to welcome them home,” he said. “It’s good for them to know that we don’t forget the sacrifi ces they have made. We don’t thank them enough.” Biggio plans on doing this event every year as “long as Revere lets me,” he said. “It’s inspiring to see how our annual motorcycle ride continues to grow exponentially each year with more riders, more sponMalden Senior Community Center hosts historical lecture May 21 A s 19th century radical abolitionist lecturers, Abby Kelley and Stephen Foster experienced long periods of separation.

The program will be held on May 21 at 2:30 p.m. at the Malden Senior Community Center. A light supper will be served after the performance. Please call 781-397-7144 to register. This program is supported by a grant from the Malden Cultural Council, a local agency which is supported by the Massachusetts Cultural Council, a state agency. “The fi ve brave veterans we’re honoring fought on our behalf to ensure our freedom and encountered life-impacting results for doing so. The least we can do is ride for them to show how much we value their patriotism and appreciate the sacrifi ces they made.” The veterans would love to see supporters line the route to honor the wounded vets who will be transported along the run route.

THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, May 17, 2019 Page 13 EPA says more study needed on synthetic turf safety By Barbara Taormina D uring this week’s neighborhood meeting on Roosevelt Park, two speakers who are experts in their fi elds downplayed the notion that synthetic turf fields pose a health risk to athletes. Marie Rudiman, a toxicologist who runs her own company, EnviroRisk Solutions, urged concerned parents to check out the website of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the list of studies that have concluded that crumb rubber, a major component in synthetic turf, is not a health threat. “The EPA has 90 studies on the potential toxicity of synthetic turf, and if you look at the summaries you’ll see over and over again, no signifi cant risk,” she said. But anyone who browses around a little on the EPA site will also fi nd that the agency’s verdict on crumb rubber is still out. “Limited studies have not shown an elevated health risk from playing on fi elds with tire crumb, but the existing studies do not comprehensively evaluate the concerns about health risks from exposure to tire crumb,” explained the EPA in an introduction to a major study still undergoing technical peer review. That study, “The Federal Research Action Plan on Recycled Tire Crumb Used on Playing Fields and Playgrounds,” is being conducted by the EPA, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the Agency for Toxic Substances and Disease Registry (ATSDR) and the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, and it draws on data from many diff erent sources. “While this eff ort won’t provide all the answers about whether synthetic turf fi elds are safe, it represents the fi rst time that such a large study is being conducted across the U.S.,” explained the EPA. Patrick Maguire, a landscape architect with a Dedham-based company, Activitas Inc., told residents who turned out for the Roosevelt Park meeting that much of the worry about synthetic turf comes from speculation rather than scientific studies that say the risks from the artificial fields are minimal. “There’s stuff in crumb rubber that’s not great, but it’s locked up tight in that rubber,” he said. “Kids can’t eat it or ingest it or get those things into their bodies.” But according to one of those studies that Rudiman mentioned, “the exposure of lead ingestion and risk level increases as the particle size of crumb rubber gets smaller,” which would be as a synthetic fi eld begins to wear down from use. The CDC has also warned about the increased risk of exposure to lead particles from synthetic turf as it grows older. Although many studies have found that exposure to specifi c chemicals and toxins in synthetic turf fall into the acceptable risk range, some researchers point out that limited work has been done on the risk of combinations of diff erent chemicals. Most studies, even those that dismiss health risks as minimal, concede that more research is needed, particularly on how diff erent components of crumb rubber in artifi cial turf aff ect children. Good news for gamers By Barbara Taormina he Ordinance Committee is proposing new rules for arcade games that will be welcomed by players and the businesses that install them for customers. Ordinance Committee Chairman/Councillor-at-Large Craig Spadafora said the ordinance that’s now on the books dates back to the 1980s when arcades were popping up everywhere. Like pool halls before them, Malden saw arcades as potential trouble spots, and the current ordinance seems to have been designed to limit them. But Nintendos and Xboxes have changed the world of arcades and amusement machines, and Malden is proposing an updated ordinance with a new license fee schedule. According to the current rules, any business with more than 25 machines is considered a family amusement center. At least half of those 25 games are required to spit T out tickets that winners can redeem for prizes while 5 percent of the machines must be rides or amusements that require no skills. Ordinance Committee members agreed to eliminate those requirements and leave it up to businesses to off er the machines and games their customers enjoy. Under the current licensing fee schedule, businesses now pay $100 a year for each machine, and any business with 10 or more machines is also hit with a $2,500 arcade or amusement center fee. “We’re losing other types of businesses, like manufacturing, and I don’t know why we’re discouraging someone who wants to come in and rent some commercial space and do this,” said Ward 6 Councillor David Camell. Committee members agreed and decided to eliminate the $2,500 fee and instead charge fees for individGAMERS | SEE PAGE 22 Like us on Facebook advocate newspaper Facebook.com/Advocate.news.ma WE WORK FOR YOU! * Have your car repaired by     * An I-CAR GOLD CLASS SHOP              for                                 1605 North Shore Road, Revere * 781-284-1200 Visit us at: www.AtlasAutobody.com or call (781) 284-1200 to schedule your appointment today!

Count the Malden High School girls’ outdoor track team among them this spring as the Golden Tornadoes defeated league rival Revere, 7165, in the cold and rainy weather on Monday to fi nish undefeated in Northeastern Conference (NEC) play at 7-0. With the perfect mark, Malden and head coach Jayson Payeur can claim the NEC South Division Championship, its fi rst since beginning league play in 2016. “It’s a great accomplishment for this team; they worked very hard all season and it’s very satisfying to see them paid off for their eff ort,” coach Payeur said. As has been the case all season, Malden was led by its fi eld event athletes, including record-setting senior Shaetaya Smith.

THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, May 17, 2019 Page 15 Malden baseball seniors lead way to 5-4 win over Salem By Nick Toscani the game on Friday. After a scoreless eighth, I t took two days and both of Malden’s top two senior pitchers, but the Golden Tornadoes were able to pull out a 5-4 win on the road over Salem High in a game played at Salem State University. The win improved the Tornadoes squad to 5-8 overall. Unfortunately, a pair of losses to the Lynn entries in the Northeastern Conference (NEC) – 8-4 at home to Lynn English on Monday and an even tougher, 3-0 shutout loss on the road at Lynn Classical on Wednesday – put Malden in a precarious spot if it hopes to make secure a postseason state tourney spot. “We have to win the rest, that’s the place we are at right now,” Malden head coach Steve Freker said. “It can be done, but it will not be easy.” Stickney shuts the door in continuation win over Salem Malden fought to a 4-4 tie after seven regulation innings last Tuesday versus Salem before the skies opened up. The Tornadoes returned to fi nish Malden was able to scratch out a go-ahead run in the top of the ninth when sophomore Liam Jordan walked and ended up on third with one out after a stolen base and a groundout by senior captain Christian Monahan-Dasilva. Baseball mojo then smiled on Malden when a pitch by ace Dan Beauregard skipped past the catcher on a swinging third strike with senior captain Billy Stickney at the plate. Stickney ran to fi rst and Jordan motored home and scored the goahead and what turned out to be the game-winning run. Stickney was on the hill for Malden for his second inning of work and proceeded to strike out the side, in order, the last two looking, in the bottom of the ninth to seal the win. “He’s [Stickney] one of the best pitchers in the region, and he really showed it that inning; he just dominated, and I don’t think they even fouled one off that inning,” coach Freker said. **** tance, scattering fi ve hits and allowing just one earned run, in a 3-0 loss on the road to Lynn Classical at Fraser Field in Lynn.

More than 100 horses have been entered for the Saturday’s 11-race card with more than $500,000 in purses and incentives on the line as the track kicks off the fi rst of three scheduled live racing and food truck festival weekends for its fi nal live racing season. The entries include familiar local horsemen and jockeys including Jay Bernardini, Karl Grusmark and Tammi Piermarini, the third all-time leading woman rider in history. In addition to the featured race, there are fi ve other races carded on the turf for Saturday. Over the course of the weekend, there will be four stakes races restricted to horses foaled in Massachusetts – the $50,000 Rise Jim Stakes and the $50,000 Isadorable Stakes on Saturday along with the $50,000 African Prince Stakes and $50,000 George F.

The track has continuously maintained its status since receiving its initial Alliance accreditation in 2011. Alliance certifi cation standards address an extensive list of safety and integrity concerns within six broad areas: injury reporting and prevention; creating a safer racing environment; uniform medication and testing; jockey health and welfare; aftercare and transition of retired racehorses; and wagering security.

Transportation Committee recommends more community involvement By Barbara Taormina A t the beginning of the year, City Councillors Stephen Winslow, Craig Spadafora and Peg Crowe formed the LongTerm Transportation Study Committee to explore Malden’s transportation needs and challenges. Residents Keri Pyke, David Sentakilla and Brendan Connor were tapped to serve on the committee and ensure the study has a community-wide perspective, and the group was off and studying with the promise of a report this spring. The report is still a work in progress, but this week Winslow off ered the City Council a preview with a brief update and several signifi cant recommendations. From the start, the committee has been looking at neighboring cities and towns to understand their best transit-orientated practices. “One of the things we looked at was what other communities do in terms of their traffi c commissions,” said Winslow, adding that committee members looked at Arlington, Cambridge, Everett, Melrose, Medford, Brookline, Revere and Somerville. “We found that seven out of nine communities … had citizen representation on their traffi c commissions,” he said. Only the commissions in Malden and Revere were composed of offi cials and city staff . Police Chief Kevin Molis, Planning Board Chairman Charles Ioven, Parking Department Director Ron Hogan, Public Works Commissioner William Coleman and City Engineer Yem Lip serve on Malden’s Traffi c Commission, and they are responsible for parking regulations, fi nes and public safety through the enforcement of traffi c laws.

Revere and Malden were also the only two communities in the Study Committee’s group of cities and towns that had no offi cial transit staff to manage transportation issues and questions, such as changes to bus stops and routes. Winslow said the Committee is recommending that the city hire a transportation planner, a proposal that already has Mayor Gary Christenson’s support and will be included in the upcoming budget. Winslow also said that Malden has a predilection for advisory committees, and plenty of residents who are willing to step up and serve as members. The Study Committee will also be recommending expanding the role of the Walkability Advisory Committee as well as creating advisory committees on cycling and other transit-related topics. Malden to eliminate single-use plastic bags O n Tuesday, May 7, Mayor Gary Christenson signed a bill into law that amends the City of Malden Ordinances to include a section regarding the use of recyclable and reusable bags. Eff ective Jan. 1, 2020, checkout bags used by Malden retail establishments may only be reusable, multiuse bags. The single-use plastic bags which are currently being used will no longer be allowed at any point of sale. Last year Christenson was approached by 8th grade students at the Beebe School as well as the Mystic Valley Regional Charter School to consider a ban on single-use plastic bags in Malden. A group of residents had also recently spoken to him about this issue. The environmentally conscious students’ and residents’ concerns regarding the bags included that they are non-biodegradable, end up as waste in landfi lls, often get stuck in storm drains and clog pipes, and even end up stuck in trees. Additionally, continued production of bags contributes to greenhouse gas emissions. Christenson was on board and proposed the ordinance which was sponsored by Ward 6 Councillor David Camell. The proposal was brought before the City Council, which sent it for review by its Ordinance Committee.

But it’s critical to understand the ins and outs of enrolling because the consequences of missing a deadline can be costly and last a lifetime. Here’s what you should know about Medicare’s three different enrollment periods. Initial Enrollment Period At age 65, the Initial Enrollment Period is the fi rst opportunity that most people are eligible to enroll in Medicare. If you’re already claiming Social Security benefi ts at least 4 months before age 65, you are automatically enrolled in Medicare, with coverage starting the fi rst day of month you turn 65. If you’re not receiving Social Security benefi ts, it’s up to you to enroll in Medicare either online at SSA.gov/Medicare, over the phone at 800-772-1213 or through your local Social Security offi ce. You can enroll any time during the Initial Enrollment Period, which is a seven-month period that includes the three months before, the month of, and the three months after your 65th birthday. It’s best to enroll three months before your birth month to ensure your coverage starts when you turn 65. If, however, you plan to keep working and have health coverage from your employer, or from a spouse’s employer, you may want to delay Medicare Part B, which covers outpatient services, and Part D, which covers prescription drugs. But fi rst check with the human resources department to see how your employer insurance works with Medicare. Typically, if your employer has fewer than 20 employees, Medicare will be your primary insurer and you should enroll. But if you work for a company that has 20 or more employees, your employer’s group health plan will be your primary insurer as long as you remain an active employee. If this is the case, you don’t need to enroll in Part B or Part D when you turn 65 if you’re satisfi ed with the coverage you are getting through your job. But in most cases, unless you’re contributing to a Health Savings Account, you should at least sign-up for Medicare Part A, which is free and covers hospital services. Special Enrollment Period If you delay Part B and Part D past age 65, you can sign up for Medicare during the Special Enrollment Period. Once you (or your spouse) stop working and you no longer have group health coverage, you have eight months to enroll in Part B. But if you miss that deadline, you’ll pay a late-enrollment penalty for the rest of your life. The penalty increases your premiums by 10 percent for each 12-month period that you don’t have coverage. The window for Part D is shorter. You must sign up for Part D within two months of losing drug coverage. If you go 63 days or more without drug coverage, you’ll pay a lifetime late-enrollment penalty that equals 1 percent of the monthly base premium (about $33 in 2019) times the number of months you don’t have Part D of other creditable coverage. General Enrollment Period If you miss either of these first two enrollment periods, you’ll have to wait until the General Enrollment Period, which is January 1 through March 31 of each year, but your Part B and Part D coverage will not begin until July 1. And you’ll be subject to late-enrollment penalties. There is, however, no penalty for late enrollment for Part A. You can sign up anytime with coverage beginning the first day of the following month.

CON CON VOTES TO TAX MILLIONAIRES ANOTHER 4 PERCENT (H 86) House and Senate held a constitutional convention and approved 156-37, (House approved 12133, Senate approved 35-4), a proposed constitutional amendment that would allow a graduated income tax in Massachusetts and impose an additional 4 percent income tax, in addition to the current fl at 5.1 percent one, on taxpayers’ earnings of more than $1 million. Language in the amendment requires that “subject to appropriation” the revenue will go to fund quality public education, affordable public colleges and universities, and for the repair and maintenance of roads, bridges and public transportation. The proposal is sponsored by Sen. Jason Lewis (D-Winchester) and Rep. James O’Day (D-West Boylston). In order to go on the ballot for voters to decide, it needs to twice have the votes of 101 of the 200 members of the House and Senate in the current 20192020 session and again in the 2021-2022 session. The earliest it could be on the ballot is in November 2022. A similar eff ort by a group called the “Raise Up Coalition” to get the question on the 2018 ballot was derailed when it was ruled unconstitutional by the Supreme Judicial Court which said the constitution prohibits placing more than one objective in a single proposed constitutional amendment that is sought by a citizens’ group. The court’s decision noted that the proposal imposed the tax and then stipulates how the money could be spent. The current amendment is proposed by legislators rather than citizens and according to proponents, amendments proposed by legislators can have more than one objective and would not be ruled unconstitutional by the court. There was no debate on the proposal and no amendments were considered despite eff orts by GOP Minority Leader Brad Jones (R-North Reading) to propose one. Jones said that Senate President Karen Spilka, who presided over the convention was intent on gaveling through the proposal quickly and deflected his attempts to off er an amendment. Jones said his amendment would have required that revenue from the new tax be spent in addition to funds already directed toward education and transportation, and not simply replace those funds. Jones was clearly unhappy with the procedure. “You know what it is?” Jones told the State House News Service. “You can quote me. It’s bu**sh**. That’s what it is.” Senate President Karen Spilka said there will be debate and the opportunity to propose amendments when the proposal is debated again on June 12. Supporters say the amendment will aff ect only 20,000 extremely wealthy individuals and will generate up to $2 billion annually in additional tax revenue. They argue that using the funds for education and for the repair and maintenance of roads, bridges and public transportation will benefi t millions of Bay State taxpayers. They note the hike would help lower income families which are now paying a higher share of their income in taxes. Opponents argue the new tax will result in the loss of 9,500 private sector jobs, $405 million annually in personal disposable income and some millionaires moving out of state. They say that the earmarking of the funds for specifi c projects is illegal and said all the funds will go into the General Fund and be up for grabs for anything. “The new revenue that would be raised by the Fair Share Amendment would go a long way in helping to fix crumbling roads and bridges, improving service on the MBTA and other public transportation, increasing funding for public schools, expanding access to quality early childhood education, and making higher education more aff ordable for students and families,” said Sen. Jason Lewis (D-Winchester), the Senate sponsor of the proposal. “It’s also the best way to raise revenue that would make our tax system fairer and more progressive, rather than increasing taxes on middle class families who cannot aff ord to pay more. I’m pleased that the Legislature’s action today moves the Fair Share Amendment one step closer to the ballot.” “The Massachusetts Fiscal Alliance (MFA) stands with the voters, who on fi ve separate occasions voted against making Massachusetts a graduated income tax state, and with the state’s highest court which recently rejected a similar scheme as unconstitutional,” said Paul Craney, spokesman for the MFA. “Some lawmakers think history started in 2019, but this policy idea is the most rejected in the state’s history. The answer should always be ‘no,’ when considering removing our constitutionally protected guarantees of equal taxation.” “Community, faith, and labor groups all across Massachusetts strongly support the Fair Share Amendment because it’s the most fair, progressive and sustainable way to raise the major new revenue Massachusetts needs to invest in transportation and public education,” said Andrew Farnitano, the spokesman for Raise Up Massachusetts. “We thank the Legislature for moving the Fair Share Amendment forward today.” “If there was ever any doubt that the Legislature would expedite the scheme to tax more, today’s brief constitutional convention dispelled it,” said Chip Ford, executive director of Citizens for Limited Taxation. “It took longer to call the convention to order than to actually vote on and advance the so-called ‘Millionaire’s Tax,’’’ Ford added. “A whopping billion dollars in excess revenue above last April’s haul poured into state coff ers just last month alone but that’s still not enough for the ‘spendoholics’ on Beacon Hill. More never is.” (A “Yes” vote is for the additional 4 percent tax. A “No” vote is against it.) Rep. Paul Donato Didn’t Rep. Steven Ultrino Y Sen. Jason Lewis Vote es Yes $200 MILLION IN CHAPTER 90 FUNDING FOR LOCAL ROADS (H 69) House 156-0, approved and sent to the Senate a bill authorizing $200 million in one-time funding for the maintenance and repair of local roads and bridges in cities and towns across the state. The package is a bond bill under which the funding would be borrowed by the state through the sale of bonds. Other provisions include $200 million for rail improvements and $1.5 billion in bonding to allow for federal interstate repairs to advance. According to offi cials, 80 percent of the $1.5 billion would be reimbursed by the federal government. Supporters said the $200 million would help cities and towns keep their roads and bridges safe and allow many vital municipal road projects to move forward. No one voted against the bill but there are some legislators and city and town offi cials who say the $200 million that has been given for the past few years is insuffi cient. The Massachusetts Municipal Association (MMA) said it appreciates that the bill is moving forward because cities and towns maintain and repair 30,000 miles of local roads— that’s 90 percent of the roadways in the Bay State. However, for several years, the MMA has been seeking to increase the amount to $300 million. “The MMA’s long-term goal is to work with the governor and Legislature on a shared strategy to increase Chapter 90 funding and provide a multi-year framework, so that cities and towns can improve the quality of our roadways and save taxpayer dollars,” said MMA Executive Director Geoff Beckwith. Transportation House chairman Bill Straus (D-Mattapoisett) said the current $200 million is suffi - cient when combined with other state programs to help cities’ and towns’ infrastructure including a $50 million small bridge repair. “We have increased not just state spending, but the money we provide to municipalities in other ways,” said Straus. “I don’t agree that we’ve fl atlined the expenditure.

Rep. Paul Donato Didn’t Rep. Steven Ultrino Vote Yes 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 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 fi led. 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 May 6-10, the House met for a total of fi ve hours and 22 minutes while the Senate met for a total of eight hours and 21 minutes. Mon. May 6 House 11:11 a.m. to 1:27 p.m. Senate 11:02 a.m. to 5:13 p.m. Tues. May 7 No House session No Senate session Wed. May 8 House 11:08 a.m. to 1:55 p.m. Senate 11:15 a.m. to 1:20 p.m. Thurs.

THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, May 17, 2019 Page 19 TEACHERS | FROM PAGE 8 Nekita Lamour suggested using displaced, retired and semi-retired educators of color to pilot community-based enrichment programs. “By engaging in ‘community driven’ programs, underachieving children and youth would observe and experience structured learning occurring and initiated in their own environments by stakeholders in their communities that they can look up to,” Lamour said. Lamour estimated that close to 71 percent of the school population is nonwhite, according to enrollment data, and the majority of black students have foreign backgrounds, are immigrants or are children of immigrants. Malden CORE member Susan Lawrence said there are cultural diff erences between minorities and white members. For African Americans, she said, that includes colorful names, talking loudly and touching each other’s hair. Her adopted Ethiopian daughter, Tihun, 18, has never had a teacher of color in the Malden school system. “Teachers may not be able to pronounce names or make fun and say it wrong, but for a little kid, that means a lot,” Lawrence said. “That can shape their confidence and make them question whether they belong there.” As a result, they strongly encourage the district to provide ongoing antiracist training for all educators. “This shows an investment in our children, because they deserve to have teachers and staff in their schools who understand the impact of systemShown from left to right are Education Management Professional/Malden resident Nekita Lamour, Malden elementary schoolteacher Penny Kalman and Malden CORE members Mekka Smith, Susan Lawrence and Rochelle Bulforte.

Lastly, CORE members asked the district to clarify the process that staff members follow if they want to report an instance of bias that falls along the lines of diversity, equity or inclusion. “Teachers have told us that they feel marginalized during are realizing the importance of teachers and the future of education. She said she chose that career path because she likes the classroom setting. Malden High School Principal Christopher Mastrangelo said he doesn’t think there is a better profession to go into. “Sadly, there are fewer people going into the fi eld, but while they lack in monetary resources, they get to make an infl uence daily,” Mastrangelo said. “As the saying goes, ‘To teach is to touch a life forever.’” Tara Vocino may be reached at printjournalist1@gmail.com. ~ LEGAL NOTICE ~ COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS THE TRIAL COURT PROBATE AND FAMILY COURT Middlesex Probate and Family Court 208 Cambridge Street, Cambridge, MA 02141 (617) 768-5800 Docket No. MI18P3841EA Estate of: Gelsomina Norma Formicola Also known as: Jessie N.
