Donato wins preliminary election in closest local House seat race in memory Longtime legislator ahead in Democratic primary by just 62 votes in two-city, district win over Malden challenger Mossalam By Steve Freker e holds more experience than most other office holders in local and regional political history. In Tuesday’s preliminary for the 35th Middlesex District seat, longtime Malden-Medford state Rep. Paul Donato added a new wrinkle: what appears to be the closest election win in his 40-year-plus career as a politician. Unoffi cial results from the precincts in the two cities that comprise the 35th Middlesex – Malden and Medford – were not announced until well into the wee hours of Wednesday morning, following Election Day Tuesday. The 62-vote margin of victory may be a record The results showed what may be a record-setting, razor-thin, 62-vote margin of victory for the veteran legislator Donato over challenger Nichole Mossalam. Donato is a longtime Medford resident, while Mossalam has lived in Malden for many years. While Mossalam won her home city over Rep. Donato, by a 935-797 margin, Donato prevailed in his city of Medford to eke out the eventual 62-vote unoffi cial win.

Not two hours later, I hear from Chief Cronin. He informed me that they would handle and speak to the people involved. He said he would call again.The next day I heard from the Chief and he explained what they were going to do.You would think that would be the end of it, however, he took it one step further and called me again and explained that they have spoken to the people and the problem has been resolved.He gave me his personal cell phone number if we should have any more problems with the neighbor. The reason for this letter is to show the public that with all the negativity going on with the government and the police, a complaint from a citizen of Malden was handled with such professionalism.The response time was unbelievable from both of them. Again, I cannot stress enough how Mayor Christenson and Chief Cronin took care of our problem. Which only proves that the government can work when you have two offi cials working together.Other cities should follow in their footsteps. Signed, Virginia Guarino Rich Street Condominiums

The bill was partially signed into law – with vetoes and recommended amendments – by Governor Charlie Baker on August 10, 2022. In addition to authorizing state funding for critical projects, this new law (Chapter 176 of the Acts of 2022) also positions the Commonwealth to maximize its share of the funding from the federal Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, which was passed by Congress late last year. “I’m very pleased that both our state and federal governments recognize the critical need to improve our transportation and other infrastructure, including roads, bridges, sidewalks, trails, public transit and more,” said State Senator Jason Lewis. "As we have seen with the unprecedented shutdown of the MBTA Orange Line, not adequately maintaining our infrastructure is a major threat to our state’s economy and quality of life, and the challenges are only increasing with the impacts of climate change.” Some of the key funding provisions in this new law: S LANDSCAPE & MASONRY CO.

The bill also defi nes and classifi es Class 1 and Class 2 e-bikes to align Massachusetts with many other states and ensure that most e-bikes are not classifi ed as mopeds. To address MBTA safety and Jason Lewis State Senator • $1.4 billion for MBTA safety improvements and modernization eff orts • $200 million for commuter rail electrifi cation • $275 million to advance EastWest passenger rail • $55 million for Complete Streets and other grants to cities and towns to improve safety for all transportation modes, including cyclists and pedestrians To promote the adoption of electric vehicles (EVs), the legislation includes $215 million for the development and implementation of programs to promote, establish or expand public electric vehicle charging infrastructure, the development and implementation of incentive reliability concerns, this new law mandates that the MBTA establish and maintain a three-year safety improvement plan with measurable safety objectives for the agency, and it directs the MBTA to contract with an independent third-party auditor to conduct annual safety audits. To ensure more transparency around the MBTA’s safety, the bill directs the agency to submit a monthly, publicly available report containing all safety incidents aff ecting any of its modes of transit. In addition, the MBTA is required to develop and implement short-, medium- and long-term plans for how each line of the commuter rail system can be fully integrated into the Commonwealth’s transportation system and contribute to the productivity, equity and decarbonization eff orts of the MBTA as a whole.

THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, September 9, 2022 Page 5 ~ Guest Commentary ~ Campaign Underway to Repeal New Law Allowing Driver’s Licenses for By Salvatore Giarratani new law (H.4805) that would allow undocumented/illegal immigrants to apply for a Massachusetts driver’s license is scheduled to start July 1, 2023. Voters will be headed to the polls on Election Day, November 8 so taxpayers, not Beacon Hill, can decide whether to repeal it or keep it. I was reminded about this important ballot question on November 8 after reading Beacon Hill Roll Call by Bob Katzen which runs in The Revere Advocate each week. This column is a great way to see just what our legislators up on Beacon Hill are doing in our name. The campaign to repeal the new law was steered by Maureen Maloney, whose son, Matt Denice, was killed by a drunk driver who did not have legal status in this country and illegally drove a motor vehicle. During the period that the petition drive was on, voters lined up in droves to sign the repeal voicing their opposition to the new law not even yet in eff ect. Opponents of the repeal campaign reportedly harassed and tried to prevent voters from signing the petition and in some cases forced local police to shut down volunteers from collecting more signatures. The other side obviously likes the new law that is coming if the voters don’t stop it on Election Day, November 8. One supporter of the new law, Elizabeth Sweet says, “The [law] keeps people safer by ensuring that all drivers, regardless of immigration status, know and follow the rules of the road, take the same driver’s test and have insurance when they need it.” Still trying to fi gure out what she means by “have insurance when they need it.” Isn’t the answer, all motor vehicles on the road need to be insured? I believe it is up to We the People of Massachusetts to decide if this new law is right for us. I do believe this new law could open the door to non-citizens voting. That is a real concern considering just how badly the RMV has performed of late, right? I trust voters will make the corThis ballot question is crystal clear who should or shouldn’t be able to apply for a MA driver’s license. Driving a motor vehicle in Massachusetts is not a right but a privilege. I didn’t say this, the Registry of Motor Vehicles states this. I am tired of those sob stories about illegal immigrants afraid to take their children to the doctor’s offi ce for fear of getting caught by the police. One fi nal question few want to answer. Does this mean that illegal or undocumented immigrants given driver’s licenses means that there will be no longer be unregistered or uninsured cars on the road? I was born at night but not last night. As the grandson of immirect call in November. While the other side says, “We are disappointed that this unnecessary and divisive repeal question appears to be moving forward, we are more than determined than ever to defend the expansion of permission to apply for a driver’s license.” grants to this country, I am not anti-immigrant. Never have been. I am all for helping those who come here legally like my grandparents and the grandparents of many who are reading my words right here. We will need to fi nd a way to fi x our immigration policy because the status quo ain’t working out too well. However, driver’s licenses are not yet a top priority for most of us. Vote NO on driver’s licenses for illegal immigrants this November 8!

While close results in local elections have been fairly commonplace in both Malden and Medford in recent years – particularly in City Council and School Committee races – the 62-vote margin in Tuesday’s preliminary election stands out as a possible record-setter in the 35th Middlesex, at any juncture in the election calendar. Rep. Donato will be reelected in November with no Republican challenger Since there is no Republican challenger on the ballot, Rep. Donato is on track to be reelected to his 12th consecutive term in the state House of Representatives in the Final Election on November 8. The longtime local legislator – who also served a number of terms as a Medford City Councilor in the 1980s and early 1990s, as well as two terms as Mayor of Medford under the former Plan E/Town Manager form of government there in the 1980s – has for a number of years held lofty posts in the Mass. House leadership under several House Speakers. This the second consecutive election Mossalam has made a strong challenge to the incumbent Rep. Donato. In the 2020 election, Donato prevailed in the Democratic preliminary election over Mossalam, 55.6 percent to 44.1 percent (5,2504,188). Then, as in Tuesday’s election, Donato was bested by Mossalam in Malden votes, but prevailed, though by a much larger percentage, with more votes in Medford. Rep. Donato thanks voters who supported him Tuesday In an online report Wednesday, following Tuesday’s preliminary election, Rep. Donato thanked the voters who turned out Tuesday and congratulated his opponent, Mossalam, on her campaign this year. Rep. Donato also pledged to keep working for the citizens of Malden and Medford he represents to secure state funding for top priority spending targets in education and transportation. Donato said funding is needed for such critical items as addressing infrastructure needs like roads and bridges, transportation woes affi liated with the MBTA, and teacher shortages in public schools. “We still need to do more [on state education spending] and we’ve got to face a major problem in transportation,” he told the Patch in an online report. There was some drama on Election Night Tuesday, as Medford reported its results late Tuesday night in the 35th Middlesex race, and Donato showed just a 200 vote advantage there.

In Malden, where the 35th Middlesex includes six of 27 precincts, Rep. Donato prevailed in three of six by a couple of votes in two of them and, surprisingly, by 30-votes (99-69) in Mossalam’s home precinct in Malden, Ward 7, Precinct 1. Rep. Donato also took Ward 5, Precinct 1 (98-85) and Ward 5, Precinct 3 (144-142). Mossalam prevailed in Ward 5, Precinct 2 (131-119) and did her best in Ward 3, Precinct 2 (293-154) and Ward 3, Precinct 3 (157-123). Just 21 percent of the 35th Middlesex voters in Malden cast ballots, the vast majority of them at the polls on Tuesday, which was slightly higher than the overall turnout in Malden Tuesday, a tepid 18.1 percent (6,646 of 36,698) overall. A steady rain and Election Day being the day after a major holiday weekend – Labor Day – most certainly did not aid the turnout numbers, either locally or statewide. Statewide races are also decided on Tuesday Along with the local elections, contested statewide Democratic battles in Tuesday’s election included races for attorney general, auditor, lieutenant governor and secretary of state. There were also contested Republican races for governor and lieutenant governor. In November, Democratic governor candidate Attorney General Maura Healey will face off against Republican candidate Geoff Diehl, who narrowly defeated Chris Doughty on Tuesday. William Galvin won the Democratic secretary of state race and faces Republican Rayla Campbell in the general election in November. Former Boston City Councilor Andrea Campbell was the winner in the Democratic attorney general race and will face Republican James McMahon III in November. Kimberly Driscoll was the winner of a three-way race for the Democratic lieutenant governor nomination. She will face Leah Allen, who won the Republican lieutenant governor race. Diana DiZoglio won the Democratic state auditor race and now faces Republican Anthony Amore in the general election. Like us on Facebook advocate newspaper Facebook.com/ Advocate.news.ma

Their conversation highlighted how this legislation significantly reduces health care costs and puts money back into the pockets of older Americans. “With the Inflation Reduction Act, seniors won’t have to choose between putting food on the table and paying for lifesaving prescriptions. More families will be able to aff ord health care, and fewer Americans will be uninsured,” said Assistant Speaker Clark. “Starting this year, Americans will save about $800 a year. What else?

Page 8 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, September 9, 2022 Malden Musings – San Rock 2022 Part 2 By Peter Levine M HS Hall of Fame athlete Jenelle DeVits and her adorable daughter, Penelope, took a break while preparing the grease pole. When Penelope’s mom and San Rocco Grease Pole co-organizer Jenelle DeVits speaks, I listen: “As an Edgeworth kid, I remember walking down to Gerry D’Ambrosio Attorney-at-Law Is Your Estate in Order? Do you have an update Will, Health Care Proxy or Power of Attorney? If Not, Please Call for a Free Consultation. 14 Proctor Avenue, Revere (781) 284-5657 Pearl St. as fast as I could to get a good spot for the grease pole every year. Even as teenager, my friends and I would pull up to the fence early, and then start cheering the climbers on like it was the playoff s, game 7. It was a yearly ritual for as long as I can remember. I’ve watched some amazing Maldonians come together as a team to get the salami and cheese atop the grease pole. The last few years, I’ve witnessed the hard work and dedication of some long-time Edgeworth guys bring this tradition back – Andy Rigano, Nick Gizzi, Joey and Jay Hurley, Tim Kelly, etc. A few years ago, I was honored to join them on the team, when, for the fi rst time, the Edgeworth ladies stepped up to help get them to the top. We watched Gina Spadafora Hurley, Anna Rigano, and others come out of the crowd. We witnessed top tier specialist Rebecca Krigman prove that climbing the grease pole is an equal opportunity risk! “Last year was extremely special, as the climb to honor Chris Rigano brought our neighborhood together like never before. This year, I was glad to help bring the grease pole back and work with Rebecca, Nick, and Andy to get it up and recruit climbers. I even got Andy to pull a ‘Tom Brady’ and come out of his so-called retirement to climb. This year, we climbed to beat cancer. We climbed for Tim Kelly. As our team assembled though, we realized we were short a few bodies, so we started recruiting from the crowd. It was great. We watched several Maldonians step up and join the team. Eventually, we even had Billy Spadafora out there! “The best part, though… after an hour or so of watching us struggle to get that fourth tier, Marina Rigano Cox and Gina Spadafora Hurley changed, taped up, and gave us the last boost we needed to get to the bag. It was something else watching Gina’s son Joey climb on top of her shoulders to grab it – talk about an Edgeworth family! “A lot of people do not appreciate the hard work and time commitment it takes to make the grease pole happen every year, so I want to thank my wife, fellow Maldonian Kimberly Gillette, for holding down the fort at home so I could help make this happen. My 14-month-old daughter, a fourth generation Edgeworth kid, experienced her fi rst St. Rocco’s Feast this year. She loved the music, the people, and the dancing, but I hope one day she is covered in grease helping her friends get to the top. Viva San Rocco!” “Good evening, Mr. and Mrs. Maldonian from border to border, coast to coast, and all ships at sea. Let's go to press...” • The streets surrounding the Festa were in primo shape as DPW Director Bobby Knox and his band of merry men at the DPW spent many hours lovingly weed whacking, pruning and generally making sure the hood was ready for its closeup. Thank you, Bobby. Thank you, Mayor Christenson. Thank you to the hardest working men in showbiz, the Malden DPW! Especially you, Nicky Longo (Edgeworth’s own). • They made their debut on the gritty streets of Edgeworth some 55 or so years ago. The gang gathered once again this year at the 92nd Annual San Rock Festa to reclaim their sacred turf. Dickie “The King of King Neptune” Santo, Mario Russo, Marco DiScipio, David Zinetti, Joe “Bag of Donuts” Pagliccia, Dommy “Boo Boo” Bucci, Billy “Smegs” Smeglin and Vinnie “The Wizard” Pagliccia staked claim in front of the Food Stand and greeted one another like the long-lost comrades-in-arms that they are – a touch of gray here and there but all looked marvelous. Next year on Pearl, my paisans! Stay well. • Shout-out to Steve Savio and Sea Breeze on an outstanding performance Sunday afternoon at the Festa, fl awlessly performing the timeless classics many of us grew up with. Frank, Jerry Vale, Ray Price – Steve nailed them all! I just love this band. Reminds me of Sunday mornings growing up. Brings me back to my mother in our kitchen preparing Sunday dinner; Lou Monte, Sergio Franchi and Dino playing in the background. Terrifi c band, great memories! • So nice to see the Carducci family gathered in their yard on Pearl Street as they have for the past 50 or so years, matriarch Esther (Carducci) still frying the dough at 97! Very fortunate to still have their mom around. I spotted Pat Mallon, Jimmy (Cooch) and Merlen, Andy Curran, George DeCandia and many more of the Cooch Yard regulars (Eddie Thompson, where were you?).

Johnny and Anthony just make “stuff” happen. Whatever needs to get done, they get it done! No questions asked. The whole Spadafora family, actually – they got skin in the game so it’s personal for them. Don’t believe the hype? Check out the plaque at “SSGT Albert Spadafora Memorial Square” near Pearl and Emerald Streets. • The grease pole event is “outtasight” and would not be the grease pole without a yard to place it in. We love ya, Raj (of New York Pizza in Malden Square fame) and hope that you forgive us (once again) for not being as neat as we possibly could this year. Next San Rock Festa we’ll perfect it! Thanks again! • Gary “The People’s Mayor” Christenson is such a good fit on San Rock weekend. He gets it and he goes with the flow. He has many friends down in Ward 2, and the mutual love and respect shown on this special weekend is self-evident. He turns “Mayor Gary” off for three days and simply enjoys (and understands) this long-held tradition. Understanding the tradition is vital. Can’t be faked. When he leads the Procession on Sunday afternoon, it is genuine. When he shakes a hand, or gives a hug, it is from the heart. He wears his “Edgeworth Pride” unabashedly all weekend long for all to see. Thank you, sir, for • At San Rock 2022 you were missed, big time: Frank and Eleanor Molinari, Jimmy Palermo, Eddie and Pete Trabucco, “Sal” Trioli Sr., Carmela DiSerio, Steve Bouley, Brian Powers, Hank Pitts, Richie Cremone, Fran Tomasello, Steve DiGiacomo, Jack Pinkham, Phil Longo, John and Mary Gamby, Lucille Spadafora, Jimmy Damiano and his mom Laura, Nancy Cagno, Joey Moreno, Ruth Vona, Phyllis DeDonato, Marie Conserva and Tony and Joan Pisaturo. • Speaking of Billy Smeglin, he is still playing baseball (pitching effectively, from what I hear, at age 63) in the over 45 Boston Amateur Baseball League. I like to tell people that as an 11-year-old teammate of mine on the Twins in Little League at Bruce Field, I taught him everything he knows about the art of pitching. In truth, Billy was a natural from a very young age. Congrats, Billy, great seeing you. • Thank you, once again, to my main man with the pecan tan, the incomparable Johnny “Franklin’s Caretakyour continued support. • The Pisaturos, D’Orlandos and extended family came out for the Procession on Sunday. It was an emotional moment, but the sadness quickly turned to happiness as the family understood that they are not alone, that we go forward with Tony and Joan not to be forgotten. May their memories be a blessing. • Special thank you to IACC President Billy Settemio for opening the Club to one and all! His generosity and hospitality during the San Rock weekend, off the charts! Your kindness and the Club’s beneficence are unmatched in Malden. As Peter Falk’s iconic TV character “Columbo” would say “Just one more thing, sir” – pausing at hallowed Malden ground (Russell and Whitman) at Private First Class Kevin Robert “KC” Crowe’s memorial stone during the Sunday afternoon Procession; always an emotional experience for those of us who escort the Saint. This “Son of Edgeworth” grew up across the street from the memorial and took great pleasure in the Saint Rocco tradition. Kevin lost his life in battle on June 5, 1969, during the Vietnam conflict. His family still resides in the neighborhood, lovingly maintaining the memorial erected for him. It is very important to continue to remember one of our own – PFC Kevin “KC” Crowe. Never to be forgotten as long as there is a Malden; KC always in our thoughts.

The acceleration replaces more than five years of Orange Line delays and weekend diversions by allowing 30 days of 24-hour access to work crews. The shutdown is overlapping with the diversion on the Green Line Union Branch (August 22–September 18). Installing track and upgrading equipment overview: During the second week of the Orange Line shutdown, infrastructure improvements continued to progress. At Ruggles Station and Forest Hills, crews completed special trackwork installation. Workers installed and replaced ties at Dana Bridge to Community College, and at Wellington, Sullivan Square and Jackson Square Stations. Crews finished ballast work and tamping newly installed track at Wellington, and similar work continues at Jackson Square. Near Wellington, crews continued to replace rail, trackwork and special trackwork and installed third rail, which powers the Orange Line trains. To the south of Wellington, additional ductbanks are being installed, providing protected pathways for buried electrical or data cables. Crews completed vehicle readiness of 56 vehicles needed to operate during morning peak service. Demolition continues at Tufts Curve in preparation for installation of the new Cologne egg fasteners, special rail fasteners used in high-vibration and noise-sensitive areas, and signal testing at Oak Grove and Malden Center Stations is ongoing. Amplifying results: Crews conducted an inspection of the tunnel structure between Haymarket and North Stations on the northbound and southbound tracks. These inspections are required to help facilitate future infrastructure repairs and identify any areas in need of improvement. Monitoring customer experience: The MBTA is committed to monitoring its customers’ experience and tracking ridership closely throughout the 30day shutdown of the Orange Line. Over the last two weeks, the MBTA has listened to riders, learned from their experiences and made necessary wayfinding and service adjustments. On-site Transit Ambassadors are helping riders get to where they need to go, and on-site Orange Line Transformation (OLT) teams are monitoring service, ridership usage levels and work progress. The MBTA will continue to solicit feedback and will do its best responding to the needs of Orange Line riders.

This week, Beacon Hill Roll Call reports local representatives’ roll call attendance records for the 2022 session. The House held 165 roll calls in 2022. Beacon Hill Roll Call tabulates the number of roll calls on which each representative was present and voting, and then calculates that number as a percentage of the total roll call votes held. That percentage is the number referred to as the roll call attendance record. The vast majority of the 153 repESTATE TAX PORTABILITY which extended the due date from 2 years to 5 years. This five year period applies in the situation where an estate tax return would not otherwise be required to be filed for the decedent’s estate. If the husband were to die in E state tax portability was introduced into law on December 17, 2010 as part of The Tax Relief, Unemployment Insurance Reauthorization and Job Creation Act. Massachusetts has not adopted portability. Encourage your elected officials to pass legislation authorizing it at the state level. Portability allows the federal unused exemption amount for one spouse to be passed to the surviving spouse. A Federal estate tax return would have to be filed even though no federal estate tax is due. If one spouse dies and leaves $5million to his or her spouse, there is an unlimited marital deduction so no federal or Massachusetts estate tax will be paid. If a federal estate tax return is filed within 5 years from the time of death, you can preserve the DSUE (Deceased Spouse Unused Exemption) for the surviving spouse. The due date for filing an estate tax return to avoid any late filing or late payment penalties if a tax is actually owed is 9 months from the date of death. Congress has given taxpayers more time to file a federal estate tax return in order to preserve the portability election. Revenue Procedure 2022-34 was promulgated this year 2022 leaving $5million to his wife, there would be no estate tax to be paid on that $5million. If his wife had $10million in her own name she would then end up with a $15million estate. If the wife were to also die in 2022 there still would be no federal estate tax, even though her estate would have been valued at $15million at the time of her death. The 2022 federal estate tax exemption is $12.6million. Therefore, the husband’s DSUE of $12.06million is added to the wife’s $12.06 federal estate tax exemption resulting in a total federal exemption for the wife of $24.12million. Consequently, none of her $15million estate would be subject to federal estate tax. It is therefore important to know when to file a federal estate tax return when the first spouse dies. The federal exemption is slated to be reduced to $6.2million beginning on January 1, 2026, unless congress extends the higher exemption amounts. Preserving a $12.06 portability election now might come in very handy several years down the road when a surviving spouse dies at a time when the federal estate tax exemption is much lower. You would want to lock in the higher federal estate tax exemption now. Joseph D.

Most are watching the session from their Statehouse office, home or business and voting remotely. Here’s how the remote voting system works: Eight appointed monitors are required to be present in the House chamber and are each given the task of recording the votes of approximately 20 members who are watching the session remotely from their homes or business offices. Each monitor has their 20 members on a conference call and fills out a form indicating how each member voted. The sheets are given to the court officers who then give them to the House Clerk who verifies that the correct totals have been recorded on the sheet and that the sheet is signed by the monitor. The assistant clerk records the yeas and nays in the roll call computer, which activates the green (voted “Yes”) or red (voted “No”) lights on the electronic roll call board. Members participating remotely then have the opportunity to see on the broadcast how they are recorded so that they can verify that their vote is recorded accurately. The tally is then displayed on the roll call board and the presiding officer announces the totals and the result of the vote. If a member wants to speak on an issue under consideration, they leave the conference call temporarily. Using a different telephone, they call into a line that patches them into the debate. Their voice is then heard in the House chamber and by those watching the broadcast online. In the House, 94.1 percent (144 representatives out of 153) did not miss any roll calls and have 100 percent roll call attendance records while 5.9 percent (nine representatives out of 153) have missed one or more roll calls. The representative who missed the most roll calls is Rep. David LeBoeuf (D-Worcester) who missed 12 roll calls (92.7 percent attendance record). Rounding out the nine representatives who have missed roll calls are Reps. Joan Meschino (D-Hull) who missed six roll calls (96.3 percent attendance record); Nika Elugardo (D-Jamaica Plain), Michael Moran (D-Brighton) and Alice Peisch (D-Wellesley) who each missed four roll calls (97.5 percent attendance record); Colleen Garry (D-Dracut) who missed three roll calls (98.1 percent attendance record); and Reps. Patrick Kearney (D-Scituate), Tami Gouveia (D-Acton) and John Rogers (D-Norwood) who each missed one roll call (99.3 percent attendance record). Beacon Hill Roll Call contacted these nine legislators and asked each one for a comment on his or her attendance record. Only two responded: Reps. Peisch and Meschino. Rep. Peisch:“I was traveling for a significant family event that had been scheduled for some time. Had I been able to vote, I would have voted in the affirmative. At the time, I submitted a statement to the House Clerk for publication in the journal indicating my absence and how I would have voted.” Rep. Meschino: “I missed one day of formal session and roll call votes while traveling for a special family celebration.” Reps. LeBoeuf, Elguardo, Garry, Kearney, Gouveia, John Rogers and Michael Moran did not respond to repeated requests for a comment. REPRESENTATIVES’ 2022 ROLL CALL ATTENDANCE RECORDS The percentage listed next to the representative’s name is the percentage of roll call votes on which the representative voted in 2022. The number in parentheses represents the number of roll calls that he or she missed. Rep. Paul Donato 100 percent (0) Rep. Steven Ultrino 100 percent (0) ALSO UP ON BEACON HILL $2.9 BILLION IN TAX RELIEF PENDING (H 5260) – Gov. Charlie Baker filed a $1.6 billion supplemental budget to close out the books on fiscal year 2022. A key section sets aside $2.9 billion of the state’s projected surplus to be returned to taxpayers based on the recent “discovery” of 62F, a 1986 law approved by the voters. That law requires that tax revenue above a certain amount collected by the state go back to the taxpayers. It is estimated that the 1986 law would return $2.9 billion in fiscal year 2022 revenue to Massachusetts taxpayers. Last week, the Department of Revenue informed Auditor Suzanne Bump that it believes that $2.9 billion is required to be returned to taxpayers. If the auditor certifies that figure by a Sept. 20 deadline, the money will be returned to taxpayers. Baker's office said that even with the money being returned to taxpayers, the state will still have a fiscal year 2022 surplus of $2.3 billion. “The more time the auditor allows for the certification process, the more time she allows for outside influence by those who do not want credits sent back to the taxpayers,” said Paul Craney, spokesperson for Massachusetts Fiscal Alliance. “There is also a very strong argument to be made that since the speaker and Senate president failed to pass their tax relief package, taxpayers need this money as soon as possible to help with the rising cost of inflation. Back to school shopping is well underway and soon enough families across the state will be thinking about rising home heating costs. They need this money more than ever.” “In 1986, Citizens for Limited Taxation (CLT) put forth this ballot question with the expectation that Massachusetts taxpayers would one day need this law,” said Chip Ford, executive director of Citizens for Limited Taxation. “Any required credit should not be delayed as a refund next year, as the original intent when CLT drafted it was to get the money back to the taxpayers expeditiously. With inflation still surging, delay will only devalue the amount returned to the taxpayers.” AUTO INSURANCE BILLS SENT TO A STUDY COMMITTEE – Last week, several bills affecting auto insurance rates, surcharges and premiums were sent to a study committee where bills are rarely actually studied and are essentially defeated. It is a way to kill a proposal without holding a vote on the bill itself. Here are some of the bills that were sent off to a study committee. FEES FOR PAYING AUTO PREMIUMS IN INSTALLMENTS (H 1127) – Would prohibit auto insurance companies from charging a fee for processing an electronic payment by a customer without first giving written notification. “I filed this legislation on behalf of a constituent who was charged a processing fee for paying his automobile insurance bill electronically but was never notified by the insurer that such a fee existed,” said sponsor Rep. Brad Jones (R-North Reading). “[The bill] will add an extra layer of consumer protection and promote greater transparency by requiring insurance providers to notify consumers in writing if they charge a fee for processing an electronic payment. I’m disappointed this bill was placed in a study order, but I plan to re-file it for the upcoming session so consumers will be able to make a more informed decision on how they choose to pay their bills.” PROHIBIT EXPIRED INSPECTION STICKER FROM BEING A SURCHARGEABLE OFFENSE (H 1128) – Would prohibit driving with an expired inspection sticker from being counted as a surchargeable offense. Under Bay State law, surchargeable offenses can lead to temporary higher insurance premiums. In additional the state will immediately suspend or revoke a learner’s permit or driver’s license for 60 days if a driver has accumulated seven surchargeable offenses or moving violations within a 3-year period. A driver with three surchargeable offenses within a 2-year period will have their license or learner’s permit revoked in 90 days unless he or she completes a BHRC | SEE PAGE 14

Page 14 avvya yavvy eniiooravvy S iorn or vvy io iori by Jim Miller How the Inflation Reduction Act Will Lower Your Drug Costs Dear Savvy Senior, What kind of changes can Medicare benefi ciaries expect to see in the Infl ation Reduction Act that was recently signed into law? I’m enrolled in original Medicare and have a Part D prescription drug plan but spent more than $6,000 out-of-pocket last year on medications alone. Overpaying Paul Dear Paul, The climate, tax and health care bill known as the Infl ation Reduction Act that was passed by Congress and signed into law by President Biden last month includes signifi cant improvements to the Medicare program that will kick-in over the next few years. These changes will lower prescription drug prices for millions of seniors by allowing the government to negotiate drug prices for the fi rst time and capping seniors’ out-of-pocket drug costs at $2,000 annually. Some other popular changes will include free vaccinations, lower insulin costs and expanded subsidies for lower income seniors. Here is a breakdown of the changes to expect in Medicare and when they will roll out. 2023: Starting this January, all vaccines covered under Medicare Part D, including the shingles vaccine, will be free to benefi ciaries. And the skyrocketing cost of insulin will be capped at $35 per month. This will be a signifi cant saving for the more than 3 million Medicare enrollees who currently use insulin to control their diabetes. Also starting next year, drug makers will be penalized in the form of “rebates” that they would be forced to pay to the government if they impose price increases that exceed general infl ation. 2024: Cost sharing for catastrophic coverage in Part D will be eliminated. Under the current Part D benefi t, once your out-ofpocket costs reach $7,050 in 2022, you enter “catastrophic” coverage but are still responsible for 5 percent of your prescription drug costs, with no limit. But in 2024, people with Part D coverage will no longer be responsible for any out-of-pocket drug costs once they enter catastrophic coverage. This is signifi cant for seniors who use expensive medications for conditions like cancer or multiple sclerosis. Also starting in 2024 through 2029, Part D premiums will not be allowed to grow faster than 6 percent per year. And for lower income Medicare benefi ciaries, eligibility for the Part D Low Income Subsidy (also known as Extra Help) will be expanded to 150 percent of the federal poverty level, from today’s limit of 135 percent. This change will mean about 500,000 more seniors will qualify for fi nancial assistance to help pay some or all of their prescription drug premiums and deductibles. 2025: One of the biggest cost reduction measures for Medicare benefi ciaries will begin in 2025 when out-of-pocket spending on Part D prescription drugs will be capped at $2,000 per year. This will be a major savings for the more than 1.5 million benefi ciaries who currently spend more than $2,000 out-of-pocket each year. 2026: When Medicare’s Part D program was enacted in 2003, negotiating lower drug prices was forbidden. But because of the Infl ation Reduction Act, starting in 2026 Medicare will be empowered to begin negotiating prices with drug companies for 10 of the most expensive drugs covered under Part D. In 2027 and 2028, 15 drugs would be eligible for negotiations and in 2029 and subsequent years, 20 drugs would be chosen. And, in addition to all the Medicare improvements, the Infl ation Reduction Act also extends the Aff ordable Care Act (Obamacare) premium subsidies for three years that have helped millions of Americans gain coverage before they’re eligible for Medicare.

THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, September 9, 2022 BHRC | FROM PAGE 12 mandatory Massachusetts Driver Retraining Program before the revocation takes eff ect. “Auto insurance premiums should refl ect an individual’s actual driving experience and safe vehicle operating habits and should not be adversely impacted by simple errors such as failing to get an inspection sticker on time,” said sponsor Rep. Brad Jones. “Operating without a valid inspection sticker should not be treated on the same level as speeding or failure to stop, which represent much more serious and potentially dangerous moving violations. Driving with an expired sticker is a relatively minor off ense and should be treated as such.” Jones has refi led the bill for consideration in the 20232024 session. ALLOW INSURANCE DISCOUNTS FOR DRIVERS WHO TAKE A COURSE IN MARIJUANA IMPAIRMENT (H 1130) – Would allow insurance companies to offer discounts to drivers who complete a marijuana impairment education course off ered by driving schools and insurance companies. “This legislation provides a critical fi nancial incentive for drivers to educate themselves on the dangers of operating a motor vehicle under the infl uence of marijuana,”said sponsor Rep. Hannah Kane (R-Shrewsbury). “It will not only benefi t those who complete the course and receive the discount, but in educating drivers, make every resident of the commonwealth safer. I am disappointed this bill has been sent to study and will plan to refi le it next session.” RAISE THRESHOLD FROM $1,000 TO $2,500 (H 1117) – Under current law, in order for an accident to trigger a surcharge, there must be at least $1,000 worth of damage. This bill would raise the minimum to $2,500. “This exemption is outdated at $1,000,” said sponsor Rep. Steve Howitt (R-Seekonk) who plans to refi le the bill next year. “Cars are now costing tens of thousands of dollars [and] no longer have bumpers, but integrated facias that are part of the car's body.A scratch can cost well over $1,000 to repair and paint. Paint body shop supplies and replacement automotive parts have outpaced infl ation. By raising the points threshold to $2,500, it better conforms to these costs and does not cause additional fi nancial burdens to our Massachusetts drivers with additional insurance premiums. This legislation is fair not only to the insurance industry, but to our consumers as well.” REBATES (H 1033) – Would allow auto insurance companies to give rebates to any policy holder who is considered a safe driver under state regulations and who was not involved in any surchargeable incidents during the period the policy was in eff ect. “I believe people should be rewarded for safe driving,” said sponsor Rep. Bruce Ayers (D-Quincy). “This is a bill I plan on re-fi ling next legislative session.” QUOTABLE QUOTES “The industry has grown rapidly since the voters legalized recreational cannabis in 2016, topping $3 billion in sales this past spring. While the law was intended to create new economic opportunities for diverse communities and those previously harmed by harsh drug laws, this promise has not been fully achieved, leaving many aspiring equity entrepreneurs with a very challenging pathway to achieve the success that larger corporate interests have enjoyed." ---Former State Treasurer Shannon O’Brien on her appointment as chairperson of the Cannabis Control Commission. “It is shameful for the fi rst public ~ Legal Notice ~ Notice of Demolition to Abutters Name: New Day Recovery Address: 28 Appleton Street Malden, MA 02148 RE: Notice of Intent to Demolish Building To Whom It May Concern: A submittal of application to Malden Inspectional Services for a permit to demolish the building located at 28 APPLETON ST., Malden.

It is unacceptable that the MBTA has forced riders to carry the burden of the Baker administration's failures.” ---U.S. Sens. Ed Markey and Liz Warren in a joint statement. “Obviously the most shocking being our instant ticket numbers being down $22.2 million. And that is a trend that we have seen both nationwide and into this current month of August as well that we’ll be discussing at the next commission meeting, as well as our Keno sales being down $5.5 million which is also a trend nationwide. Plus, we did happen to have a very warm August which, generally speaking, keeps people outside and less in restaurants and liquor establishments. So that’s contributing to somewhat of that decrease.” --- Interim Lottery Executive Director Mark William Bracken. 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 briefl ength 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 August 29-September 2, the House met for a total of 45 minutes and the Senate met for a total of 26 minutes. Mon.

THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, September 9, 2022 Page 15 OBITUARY Frances Elsie (Pellegrino) Ciavarro, Of Mal - den. Devoted mother, grandmother, and great grandmother, passed away on Friday, September 2. Born in Malden in 1936 to John and Francesca Pellegrino, Frances was an honor graduate of Malden High School. In 1958 she married Frederick Ciavarro, and together they shared nearly 50 years of marriage until Fred’s passing in 2005. Frances was a dedicated employee of Princess House Home Sales and later spent most of her working years proudly serving as an administrator in the Romance Languages department at Tufts University until her retirement. Her colleagues knew Frances as a committed employee; always striving to serve others and always willing to go above and beyond to help. As one who valued civic engagement, Frances assisted in teaching Sunday School classes and organizing youth sports leagues for the Sacred Hearts Parish in Malden. Frances and Frederick raised five sons, making for exciting times at home. Frances, known affectionately as Fran, rejoiced in the chaos of a house filled with the sounds of her family. As generations below her continued to grow, her joy amplified as grandchildren, and later great grandchildren, adorned her home with laughter and love. She was known for hosting beautiful gatherings where family and friends would share times of community and fellowship with one another. Frances will be remembered for her steadfast commitment to her family. Frances also had a deep love for animals and supported local animal charitable organizations while also adopting cats to care for. She will be remembered by family as a skilled seamstress, a phenomenal chef, a champion Scrabble player, and a devout American patriot. Frances’ hobbies included crafts, ceramics, gardening, bowling, and learning tap and ballet. She also enjoyed traveling with her family, making as many trips to Italy as she could. She had a witty sense of humor, an unmatched generosity towards others and highly valued family time, a trait that has been emphasized in those that she leaves behind. Frances was preceded in death by her husband, Frederick, and their sons, John Ciavarro and Joseph Ciavarro Sr., her siblings, Mary Morrison, Nancy Rohwedder, Mazie Thompson, John Pellegrino Jr, Charles Pellegrino, and Grace Scorsello. She is survived by her sons, Michael Ciavarro, Paul Ciavarro, and David Ciavarro; her grandchildren, Jessica, Marissa, Paige, Giuseppe, Paul, Amanda, Kristin, Joseph, and Nicholas; and her great grandchildren, Madelyn, Gianna, Ezra, Siena, Wyatt, Kimberly, Danielle, and David Jr. - all of whom lovingly adored her. Frances lived a full and joyous life treasuring time with her loved ones and always helping those around her. Funeral services will be held from the Weir-MacCuish Golden Rule Funeral Home, 144 Salem St, Malden on Friday, September 9th, at 8:45 followed by a Mass of Christian Burial in the Immaculate Conception Church, Malden, at 10 AM. Interment to follow in Forest Dale Cemetery, Malden In lieu of flowers the family asks that a memorial donation or contribution be made to either St. Jude’s Hospital for Children or the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.
