Previously a Melrose City Councillor and state education attorney, Lipper-Garabedian filled the House of Representative seat following a Special Election last winter and was sworn into office on March 25 in the Commonwealth’s first-ever physically distanced ceremony at the foot of the Grand Staircase. “I thank the voters of the 32nd Middlesex District for their votes of confidence last week at the polls in Melrose, Wakefield, and Malden,” said Lipper-Garabedian. “I am grateful for the support and trust they have placed in me and am proud to represent the District at the State House. I look forward to working together in the weeks and months ahead on the issues that matter to our families…My race was uncontested, but I do not take your votes for granted. I am always mindful of the responsibility you have placed in me to represent you on Beacon Hill. Thank you for showing up for me this election.

Alkins, working with a wildlife rehabilitator, who assists when a call comes in for injured wildlife, worked to cut the owl loose. They transported it to Rowley Animal Hospital for a checkup and then to Cape Ann Wildlife Rehabilitation facility for a couple of days.
