An Internet search by their mother, Susan, yielded information about Alex’s Lemonade Stand, a charity foundation named after Alexandra Scott, a Connecticut girl born in 1996 stricken with cancer, who raised money before dying in 2004. “What better cause is there to help?” Susan asks rhetorically. “The site broke my heart. Many people in my family have died from cancer, but they were older.” Every summer the girls set up a lemonade stand at their house on Dale Street to sell drinks and take donations.

During the pandemic year of 2020, it was a virtual stand. Over the years they’ve raised close to $60,000 and received recognition from the Alex Foundation as top fundraisers in 2018 and 2019. They’ve also been recognized by the City Council and received the Key to the City from Acting Mayor Patrick Keefe when they set up their lemonade stand Saturday, August 12.

THE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, AUGUST 18, 2023 Page 3 ~ POLITICAL ENDORSEMENT ~ Fresh Off National Victory, Teamsters Endorse Michelle Kelley For Revere Council D ays after scoring a historic victory for workers across the country, the Teamsters have endorsed Michelle Kelley for an At-Large seat on the Revere City Council, backing Kelley’s plan to make Revere’s government more responsive to its citizens. Teamsters Local 25, which represents more than 12,000 members in Eastern Massachusetts and is New England’s largest chapter of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, threw its weight behind Kelley, a fi rst-time candidate and lifelong resident who works as an attorney and realtor. Union offi cials – who recently reached a milestone deal with UPS resulting in both immediate and long-term wage increases for Teamsters – praised Kelley for vowing to serve as a government watchdog and as her constituents’ voice at City Hall. Kelley said she was thrilled by the Teamsters endorsement, which adds to a groundswell of support among labor unions, calling it indicative of the Kelley said. “I was raised in a union family, I’ve worked hard my whole life, and I’m honored that the people I grew up around want me to represent them. The people of this city have too much at stake not to have a voice in the way their city is run.” Targeting sweetheart deals MICHELLE KELLEY Councillor-at-Large Candidate broader support she has received since launching her fi rst campaign for public offi ce in May. She said she will continue to accept support from working people and the groups they have chosen to join in order to stand up against powerful outside interests. “I’m proud to count the Teamsters among the working men and women who recognize that I’m fi ghting for them and I’ll take that fi ght to City Hall,” for developers that routinely bend the municipal zoning code authored by Revere residents, Kelley has proposed an enlarged abutter notifi cation zone for development projects. Once in offi ce, she will seek to enact a code of ethics for the Revere City Council, similar to those adopted by other governing bodies and professional organizations. She has also advocated for an increased emphasis on vocational education at the new Revere High School. And she will ensure that Revere’s seniors receive more respectful treatment from their government, including common courtesy from city offi cials and at public meetings. Kelley has vowed to bring a “neighborhood watch” approach to city governance. “People want accountability in how their tax dollars are spent, they want transparency, and they want responsiveness,” Kelley said. “That’s my agenda, because it’s the people’s agenda.” The fi rst person in her family to graduate college, Kelley attended Revere Public Schools and worked her way through both college and law school, receiving degrees from Salem State University and New England School of Law. She is admitted to practice in Massachusetts state and federal courts. Kelley lives in West Revere with her husband, David.

Keefe, Jr. announced “Responsible Roadways Revere,” an infrastructure improvement initiative that seeks to increase safety and mobility across this city. The City of Revere will be installing speed tables across neighborhoods to help reduce car speeds and deploy traffi c strategies to calm neighborhood streets. The City continues to analyze public safety data from Revere 311 as well as traffi c patterns to best determine where the street humps will be placed. As part of the Responsible Roadways in Revere, there are four additional speed tables scheduled to be installed across the city before the end of the year. “Revere residents have been clear from day one: We need to make our roads safer,” said Keefe. “Road safety is not just a transportation challenge, it impacts all of our residents, and that is what we are addressing here today. This initiative uses data, community feedback, and traffi c patterns as just one solution to creating Responsible Roadways in Revere.” Revere 311 has received nearly 400 speeding and street safety-related requests. In 2022, Revere 311 saw a record-high request for street safety measures to be implemented. To date, speed tables have been installed at Fenno Street and Sargent Street. Acting Mayor Keefe and the City of Revere plan to expand this program in 2024. This work coupled with the city’s master plan, Next Stop Revere, will create the tools and policies necessary for the next generation of success in Revere. For more information regarding the master plan, please visit Revere.org. ~ POLITICAL ENDORSEMENT ~ Greater Boston Labor Council Endorses School Committee Member Jacqueline Monterroso for Re-Election T he Greater Boston Labor Council (GBLC) has endorsed School Committee Member Jacqueline Monterroso for a second term on the Revere School Committee. “On behalf of the 100,000+ union members and families in our region, the Greater Boston Labor Council is proud to announce our endorsement of Jacqueline Monterroso.

THE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, AUGUST 18, 2023 Page 11 COUNCIL | FROM Page 5 portation Bond Bill that retained $25M of bond funding for a new regional rail station in Revere that would be directly linked to the Blue Line. This has since been advanced by the $4M of federal planning funds for the new rail station sponsored by Cong. Katherine Clark; and it will be further leveraged by the new DOT commitment to prioritize the electrifi cation of the Boston-to-Beverly section of the Newburyport regional rail line, which would permit transit frequency and transit fares on this regional rail line comparable to current Blue Line fares and schedules. All of which will reduce regional commuter traffi c through Revere on Route 1A and North Shore Road. • Climate Resiliency: Supported the Revere Municipal Vulnerability Preparedness (MVP) Program that will focus on practical strategies to address storm-surge and sea-level-rise impacts and will include completed and planned fl ood control barriers on Mills Avenue and more adequate and eff ective water and sewer pumping and drainage systems throughout the fl ood-prone Riverside community. • Local Parking and Bus Service: Worked with Mayor Brian Arrigo to successfully oppose DCR parking meters on Revere Beach Boulevard and argued against elimination of the MBTA bus stop at the Jack Satter House, which had been established some years ago due to my advocacy with the MBTA and which will now continue to be in operation at least through 2025 – and hopefully beyond. • Local and Regional Traffi c: Advocated for a Revere Waterfront Traffi c Study that has become the basis for evolving DCR, DOT and MBTA strategies to reduce commuter traffi c congestion along Revere Beach Boulevard and North Shore Road, particularly at their Revere Street intersections. • City Revenues and Jobs: Supported appropriate commercial/residential development at Suff olk Downs and elsewhere in Revere to generate the signifi cant new property tax revenues required to fi nance a new Revere High School and other necessary public investments. These include support for the Amazon reactivation of the former NECCO and Showcase Cinema sites, as well as ongoing Logistics redevelopment of the Global Petroleum property on Lee Burbank Highway as the new Trident Logistics Center, all of which will generate the hundreds of new jobs and the millions of new property tax payments that will maintain the economic and employment recovery of Revere. ~ OP-ED ~ Let’s Talk about Childcare in Revere! By Alexander Rhalimi Childcare is not just a matter of convenience; it’s a fundamental building block of a thriving community. As a candidate for Revere Councillor at Large, Alexander Rhalimi understands the critical role that accessible and aff ordable childcare plays in supporting families, promoting economic growth, and nurturing the well-being of our youngest residents. In Revere, like many communities, working parents often face the challenge of securing reliable and affordable childcare options. This issue has farreaching eff ects, impacting not only parents’ ability to work but also the educational and social development of our children. Rhalimi is dedicated to addressing these challenges head-on. Rhalimi’s approach to childcare is rooted in collaboration and practical solutions. He envisions a community where parents can pursue their careers with peace of mind, knowing that their children are in safe and nurturing environments. To achieve this, Rhalimi proposes working closely with local organizations, businesses, and educational institutions to expand childcare options and create innovative programs that cater to the diverse needs of our families. Rhalimi will advocate for so many state’s licensed day care providers to ease Revere barrier regulations so these providers can care for 10 enrollees instead of four children as long as safety requirements are met. “The Revere city requirements are intimidating,” Rhalimi said. There are so many women who rely on their day care home businesses. But Rhalimi’s vision goes beyond policy. He understands that meaningful change requires an ongoing dialogue with our community. Rhalimi proposes regular town halls and forums where parents, caregivers, educators, and local leaders can come together to share ideas and concerns about childcare. By amplifying the voices of those directly aff ected, Rhalimi aims to shape policies that truly refl ect the needs of our community. Childcare isn’t just a family issue—it’s a collective responsibility that impacts us all. With Alexander Rhalimi as our advocate, we have a chance to transform childcare in Revere into a model of accessibility, quality, and inclusivity. Let’s join hands and work together to ensure that every family in our city can thrive. (Editor’s Note: Alexander Rhalimi is a candidate for Councillor at Large.) REVERE The Revere summer feeding program would like to thank our Revere families who came out to have breakfast and lunch with us this summer! We would also like to thank our staff and all who helped make our program a success this summer. See you all next year!

THE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, AUGUST 18, 2023 Page 17 Wife of Everett Police Lt. killed in tragic accident at Franconia Falls Mom, 44, drowns trying to save son at popular New Hampshire waterfall By Steve Freker A 44-year-old Lynn mother and wife of an Everett Police lieutenant tragically drowned trying to save her 10-year-old son from getting swept away by a powerful current at a popular New Hampshire waterfall. Melissa Bagley, her family, and a friend were visiting Franconia Falls in Lincoln, N.H. Tuesday afternoon when her 10-year-old son slipped and fell into the water. Mrs. Bagley and her husband, Everett Police Lt. Sean Bagley, and their family were visiting the popular waterfall attraction Tuesday. 529 PLANS AND ROTH IRA ROLLOVERS B eginning in calendar year 2024, 529 College Savings Plan account holders will be able to roll over the funds in a 529 plan investment account into a Roth IRA in the name of the benefi ciary of the 529 plan up to a $35,000 lifetime limit. The 529 plan must have been owned by the beneficiary of the plan for at least 15 years. This is a valuable option when a child or grandchild decides not to go to college. If there are no other children or grandchildren with their own 529 plan to roll the monies into, rolling the 529 plan assets to a Roth IRA in the name of the benefi ciary not going to college is a good option, so long as the amount rolled over does not exceed $35,000. If the remaining assets in the plan then need to be cashed out, income taxes will be paid on the earnings as well as a 10% penalty. The contributions each year to the Roth IRA are subject to a limit. The limit for 2023 is $6,500. The conversion of 529 plan assets apply only to Roth IRA’s, not Traditional IRA’s. This was included in the SECURE 2.0 Act passed by Congress at the end of calendar year 2022. If, for example, there was $32,500 in your son’s 529 plan and he decided not to go to college, you could roll over $6,500 per year over the next fi ve years into his Roth IRA account until the 529 plan assets were fully exhausted. At the end of the five-year period, the 529 plan assets would be depleted and your son’s Roth IRA account would be equal to $32,500 plus any earnings over that fi ve-year period. There are no modified adjusted gross income limitations “One of the minor children slipped and fell into one of the pools at the falls,” the New Hampshire Fish and Game Department said. “He could not get out of the pool as it was a fast, circulating current. The mother jumped into the river to help her child and began to immediately have trouble.” Two other siblings then jumped into the river to help their brother and mother. While they were able to help their 10-year-old brother to safety, another brother, 18, became lodged in the waterfall’s boulders and could not escape. At that moment the children’s father, who was looking for their mother, found her on a rock and immediately began CPR. “Unfortunately, she was unable to be revived,” offi cials said in a release. The father then made his way to the second son’s location and was able to pull him to safety. “He went back to his wife’s location and waited for personnel to arrive,” the release added. The 18-year-old son was transported to Littleton Hospital in Littleton, NH after sustaining injuries. His current condition was not available at press deadline. Melissa Bagley, 44, died Tuesday in New Hampshire trying to save her 10-year-old son who was caught in a water current at a waterfall. She is the wife of an Everett Police lieutenant, Sean Bagley. with respect to the ability to fund the Roth IRA contribution each year by rolling over monies from the 529 plan. However, your son or daughter would have to have at least $6,500 in earned income in order to max out on the Roth IRA contribution each year. The Roth IRA contribution limit will increase to $7,000 in 2024. There is an additional $1,000 contribution allowed for those individuals who are 50 years of age or older. The IRS needs to clarify whether or not there needs to be sufficient earned income in order to rollover funds from the 529 plan to the Roth IRA in the name of the 529 plan benefi ciary. If your son or daughter had $32,500 in the 529 plan and the funds were rolled over to a Roth IRA, if the monies were invested over a 40-year period earning 8% per year, the balance in the account would exceed $706,000. This is another good reason to consider opening up a 529 plan for a child or grandchild. You now have more options available down the road if circumstances change and a child or grandchild decides not to attend college. Joseph D.

She was her high school class president her junior year and served on the Student Council. Both, collectively known as the Lemonettes, represented Revere in Project 351, an organization which uses one student from each of the state’s communities as goodwill ambassadors and volunteers. Their involvement with Alex’s Lemonade Stand has led each to consider medicine and science as careers. Kayla is studying to be a nurse, while Jordan wants to study forensic science.

Friends and relatives also Acting Mayor Patrick Keefe presented Jordan and Kayla a Key to the City. BREAKFAST | FROM Page 1 over the next year. Cole said increased prices and supply chain disruptions have been challenges for the food service program. Also on the horizon are changes to the USDA dietary guidelines which have proposed a 10 percent reduction of sugar in foods served, a change in the type of milk off ered, a reduction of sodium or salt in food and a change in whole grain products served. Those changes are not offi cial yet and would not go into eff ect until the 2027-2028 school year. Cole said that would give food manufacturers time to adjust their recipes to be in compliance with the guidelines. Cole said one of the biggest problems was fi nding a supplier of halal and kosher products. Once a month, schools serve halal burgers or halal chicken tenders, but supplies limit the off ering. Cole is continuing to search for consistent suppliers and to increase vegetarian and diversity options. Despite the challenges, Cole said, participation in the breakfast program has increased from 42 percent to 48 percent, while lunch numbers have jumped from 71 percent participation rate to 74 percent. Cole also said the National School Lunch Program has launched a Culinary Alliance made up of executive chefs from districts around the country. The Alliance develops and shares ideas and recipes. Maria Davis, executive chef of Revere Public Schools, is a member of the Alliance and has contributed the recipe for an Aloha Bowl, a dish with pineapple salsa and halal chicken tenders. “It’s exciting to think students across the country will be eatcome over every year and a party ensues. Among them was Jordan and Kayla’s grandmother Doreen Curreri, who lives in Point of Pines in a house once owned by Wonderland Ballroom owner Joseph DiStefano. “I’ve never missed visiting the lemonade stand,” she said. “It’s wonderful to see them do something for a good cause. It’s gotten bigger and bigger over the years. When they started, they were very young. To me they were babies. I’m very proud of them.” ing food designed in Revere,” said Schools Supt. Dianne Kelly. The state has pledged $1.7 million in aid for schools now required to provide free lunch for all students. Cole said Revere was recently awarded a nearly $70,000 grant to purchase supplies from farms and manufacturers within a 300-mile radius. School Committee Member Jacqueline Monterosso suggested a survey of students to see what they liked and expected from the school food service. Cole agreed a survey would be useful and suggested asking parents about their expectations. Committee members praised Cole and the staff for their work. “Everyone is knowledgeable, they have a great relationship with students, and they are proud of what they serve,” said Acting Mayor Partrick Keefe, chair of the School Committee.

I’m due to get a physical and a colonoscopy this year, but I want to fi nd out what I’ll have to pay for before I go in. Just Turned 65 Dear Just Turned, You’ll be happy to know that Medicare covers a wide array of preventive and screening services to help you stay healthy, but not all services are completely covered. Here’s what you should know. Free Preventive Benefi ts Most of Medicare’s preventive services are available to all benefi ciaries (through Part B) completely free with no copays or deductibles, as long as you meet basic eligibility standards. Mammograms; colonoscopies; shots against fl u, pneumonia, COVID-19 and hepatitis B; screenings for diabetes, depression, osteoporosis, HIV, various cancers and cardiovascular disease; and counseling to combat obesity, alcohol abuse, and smoking are just some of Medicare’s lengthy list of covered services. But to get these services for free, you need to go to a doctor who accepts Medicare “on assignment,” which means he or she has agreed to accept the Medicare approved rate as full payment. Also, the tests are free only if they’re used at specifi ed intervals. For example, cardiovascular screening blood tests once every 5 years; or colonoscopy, once every 10 years, or every two years if you’re at high risk. Medicare also offers a free “Welcome to Medicare” exam with your doctor in your fi rst year, along with annual “Wellness” visits thereafter. But don’t confuse these with full physical examinations. These are prevention-focused visits that provide only an overview of your health and medical risk factors and serve as a baseline for future care. Cost Sharing Services There are, however, a few Medicare preventive services that do require some out-ofpocket cost sharing. With these tests, you’ll have to pay 20 percent of the cost of the service after you’ve met your $226 Part B yearly deductible. The services that fall under this category include glaucoma tests, diabetes self-management trainings, barium enemas to detect colon cancer, and digital rectal exams to detect prostate cancer. For a complete list of services along with their eligibility requirements, visit Medicare.gov/ coverage/preventive-screeningservices. If you’re enrolled in a Medicare Advantage (Part C) plan, your plan is also required to cover the same preventive services as original Medicare as long as you see in-network providers. Hidden Costs You also need to know that while most of the previously listed Medicare services are free, you can be charged for certain diagnostic services or additional tests or procedures related to the preventive service. For example, if your doctor fi nds and removes a polyp during your preventive care colonoscopy screening, you will pay 15 percent of the doctor’s service fee. Or, if during your annual wellness visit, your doctor needs to investigate or treat a new or existing problem, you will probably be charged here too. You may also have to pay a facility fee depending on where you receive the service. Certain hospitals, for example, will often charge separate facilities fees when you are receiving a preventive service. And you can also be charged for a doctor’s visit if you meet with a physician before or after the service. To eliminate billing surprises, talk to your doctor before any preventive service procedure to fi nd out if you may be subject to a charge and what it would be.

Mr. Russo was a beloved leader and longtime president of the Augusta Fraternal Society. For many decades of his life, Mr. and Mrs. Russo spent months each summer returning to their birthplace, where John had a peerless reputation for his kindness and philanthropy. He is survived by his beloved O f Revere. Died peacefully at home on Monday, August 14th.He was 96 years old. Mr. Russo was born November 1, 1926 in Augusta, Sicily, the eldest of six, who became the family patriarch upon the passing of his own father in 1976. After surviving the Battle of Sicily as a child, Mr. Russo became an apprentice machinist, served in the Italian Navy, and spent a decade in Venezuela honing his skills. In 1956, Mr. Russo married the love of his life, Lucia Villalba, and together they embarked on a life of hard work and dedication to family. They became the proud parents of three daughters. He worked full time as a machinist during the day, and in the evenings, built his own business, Prattville Machine and Tool Company. Founded in 1967, the company has grown to become fi fty times its original size. John Russo worked on the machines himself, fullPHONES | FROM Page 1 schools throughout the country have cell phone bans. Committee members declined to vote for the Policies & Procedures Subcommittee recommendation to strengthen the policy with increased penalties, such as confi scating a phone and returning it at the end of the day, confi scating phones and returning them to parents or guardians at the end of the week or detention or suspension for a third off ense. Members agreed that students using cell phones in class is a problem that disrupts learning and is disrespectful to teachers and other students in the class. But rather than the subcommittee’s recommendation, they voted to amend the current policy to allow phone use during lunch and they agreed to host a meeting with parents, students and teachers to gather input on a cell phone policy for the district. Schools Superintendent Dianne Kelly described cell wife, Lucy, his daughter Veronica Russo, his daughter Connie Golden and her husband Christopher, his daughter Julie Day and her husband Michael, and eight grandchildren—Nicholas Peters-Golden and his wife Danielle, Daniel Golden, Taylor Day, Kristina Day, Elizabeth Day, Alexandria Russo, John Michael Day, and Lily Golden. In addition, John is survived by his brother Carmelo in Augusta, Sicily, his sister Maria Mellace of Revere, and his brother Mario Russo of Lynnfi eld, along with their spouses, children, and grandchildren, as well as his sister-in-law, Concetta Russo, of Revere, and her children and grandchildren. Mr. Russo was predeceased by his brother Sebastiano Russo and his sister, Lucia Russo. Visiting hours were held at the Paul Buonfiglio & SonsBruno Funeral Home, Revere on Wednesday August 16th.

In Lieu of flowers donations may be made in Johns memory to the Alzheimer’s and Dephones as a tough issue and said the proposed policy was very restrictive. Educators worry about banning phones, which became a lifeline for many students during the pandemic. Kelly said she is concerned about setting up teachers and administrators for struggles with students. She also said there are some classes, such as art, in which listening to music with earbuds can enhance learning. She suggested phone use should be left to the discretion of teachers. School Committee member Carol Tye recalled a much earlier attempt to ban cell phones and the objections of teachers who felt the phones allowed students to have a reference library at their fi ngertips. And there is the issue of safety and family emergencies. With school violence having become a concern everywhere, some families may want their students to carry phones in school. And, Kelly said, some students may feel safer just knowing they have their phones available. mentia Association by visiting act.alz.org Maria R. (DiMeo) Tenaglia O f Revere.

It’s not fair to teachers and other students.” Several committee members said the current policy, which leaves cell phone use up to the discretion of teachers, doesn’t work because it is not enforced. The committee intends to have a community meeting on the cell phone policy sometime in September. “It needs further discussion, but it’s on the right track,” said Acting Mayor Patrick Keefe, chair of the School Committee. “I think we need a stricter policy on cell phones.

This week, Beacon Hill Roll Call reports local senators’ roll call attendance records so far for the 2023 session. The Senate has held 61 roll calls so far in the 2023 session. Beacon Hill Roll Call tabulates the number of roll calls on which each senator voted 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. Thirty-two (82 percent) of the current 39 senators (one seat is vacant) did not miss any roll calls and have 100 percent roll call attendance records. It is a Senate tradition that the Senate president only votes occasionally. Current Senate President Karen Spilka follows that tradition and only voted on 12 (20 percent) of the 61 roll calls while not voting on 49 (80 percent) of them. Six (15 percent) of the 39 senators, other than Spilka, missed one or more roll calls. Sen. Liz Miranda (D-Boston) has the worst record. She missed nine roll calls for a roll call attendance record of 85.2 percent. The other fi ve senators missed one roll call each for a roll call attendance record of 98.3 percent. They are Sens. Mike Barrett (DLexington), Adam Gomez (DSpringfi eld), John Keenan (DQuincy), Patrick O’Connor (RWeymouth) and Mike Rush (DWest Roxbury). Beacon Hill Roll Call contacted the six senators asking why they missed some roll calls. Only one of the six responded. “Although present in the Senate chamber for the one roll call in which I did not participate this session, I chose not to vote due to a potential confl ict of interest,” said Sen. Keenan. The vote Keenan missed was on Gov. Maura Healey’s reorganization plan that would split the current Executive Offi ce of Housing and Economic Development into two separate cabinet level departments: the new Secretary of Housing and Livable Communities and the renamed Secretary of Economic Development. Keenan did not respond to a request by Beacon Hill Roll Call to explain the potential confl ict of interest. Sens. Miranda, Barrett, Gomez, O’Connor and Rush did not respond to repeated requests by Beacon Hill Roll Call asking them for a statement. SENATORS’ 2023 ROLL CALL ATTENDANCE RECORDS THROUGH AUGUST 11, 2023 The percentage listed next to the senator’s name is the percentage of roll call votes on which the senator voted. The number in parentheses represents the number of roll calls that he or she missed. Sen. Lydia Edwards 100 percent (0) ALSO UP ON BEACON HILL GOV. HEALEY SIGNS $56 BILLION BUDGET – Gov. Maura Healey signed into law a $56 billion fi scal 2024 state budget. The package represents a 6.2 percent increase over last year’s budget signed by Former Gov. Charlie Baker. Healey vetoed $272 million in spending and the Legislature now has the opportunity to override the vetoes with a two-thirds vote of each branch. “This budget makes our state more affordable, competitive and equitable,” Healey said. “It will make a real and meaningful diff erence in the lives of people across Massachusetts, lowering their costs, expanding access to opportunity, improving the quality of their life.” Provisions include $171.5 million to fund a requirement that all public schools provide free school lunches to all K-12 students in all schools regardless of family income; and free breakfast only to the students in schools which participate in the breakfast program. According to Project Bread, which was at the forefront of the coalition working to pass the law, 1,961 (91.8 percent) of Bay State schools participate in the breakfast program. Massachusetts has now joined seven states, California, Colorado, Maine, Minnesota, New Mexico, Vermont and Michigan that have passed laws to make school meals permanent. “Today, Massachusetts made history,” said Erin McAleer, President and CEO of Project Bread. “This victory for families across the commonwealth will have a lasting impact on generations of students to come.” The package also allows undocumented/illegal immigrants to qualify for the lower in-state college tuition rate if they attended high school here for at least three years and graduated or completed a GED. Other provisions include $50 million to support free community colleges; $50 million to create Green School Works, a program to fund projects to install and maintain clean energy infrastructure at public schools; $6.59 billion in Chapter 70 education funding for cities and towns, an increase of $604 million over last year; $504.5 million for the special education circuit breaker; $181 million for MBTA capital projects; $19.81 billion for MassHealth, the state’s Medicaid program that provides health care for low-income and disabled persons; and a new law that prisons must provide free unlimited incoming and outgoing phone calls for prisoners. THE GOVERNOR DECLARES A STATE OF EMERGENCY – Gov. Healey declared a state of emergency in Massachusetts due to the “rapidly rising numbers of migrant families arriving in Massachusetts in need of shelter and services and a severe lack of shelter availability in the state.” “State employees and our partners have been miracle workers throughout this crisis – going above and beyond to support families and using every tool at their disposal to expand shelter capacity by nearly 80 percent in the last year,” said Healey. “But in recent months, demand has increased to levels that our emergency shelter system cannot keep up with, especially as the number of families leaving shelters has dwindled due to a lack of aff ordable housing options and barriers to BEACON | SEE Page 22

Page 22 THE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, AUGUST 18, 2023 BEACON | FROM Page 20 securing work.” Healey continued, “I am declaring a state of emergency in Massachusetts and urging my partners in the federal government to take the action we need to address this crisis by streamlining the work authorization process and passing comprehensive immigration reform. Many of the new arrivals to our state desperately want to work, and we have historic workforce demands across all industries. I am also calling on all of our partners – from cities and towns to the faith community - philanthropic organizations and human service providers – to rise to this challenge and do whatever you can to help us meet this moment.” The Healey administration also urged landlords, houses of worship, universities, businesses and private residents to open their facilities, homes and businesses to help house immigrants. “This is not a crisis that our family shelter system was designed to handle,” said Lt. Gov. Kim Driscoll. “For months now, state government and our providers have been doing the work of stretching the system as far as it can safely go. But we really need to bring more people into this work to make it a true team eff ort. If you have an extra room or suite in your home, please consider hosting a family. Safe housing and shelter is our most pressing need.” Meanwhile, the Massachu1. On Aug. 18, 1774, the Lewis of Lewis and Clark was born; what was Lewis’ fi rst name? 2.

August 24 is National Waffl e Day; what immigrant group introduced waffl es to America? setts Fiscal Alliance condemned what it calls “the Biden administration’s failure to properly secure the southern border and the Healey administration for being complacent.” “Immigration should not be politicalized but the Biden administration is either playing politics or we are watching a historic failure in leadership,” said Paul Craney, spokesman for Massachusetts Fiscal Alliance. “While Washington’s dysfunction may seem far removed, their failures are now starting to have a very real and tangible negative impact in Massachusetts.” Craney continued, “It’s no secret Gov. Maura Healey likes to travel out of state, perhaps it is time [for] the governor to take a trip to the southern border to see fi rsthand the open southern border crisis. Without recognizing the severity of the problem and reasons for it, which is an open border and unaccountable president, it will persist by draining resources from Massachusetts and its taxpayers.” FREE COLLEGE TUITION FOR KIDS RAISED BY NON-PARENTS INCLUDING GRANDPARENTS (H 1257, S 819) – A bill heard by the Higher Education Committee would provide tuition and fee waivers for any Bay State resident attending a Massachusetts public state university and who lives with a grandparent or other family member, other than their parents. “The bill would provide muchneeded fi nancial relief for young adults pursuing higher education in the commonwealth who were raised by family members other than their parents – such as grandparents,” said Senate sponsor Sen. Julian Cyr (D-Truro). “Foster children under Department of Children and Families (DCF) care have been entitled to a tuition-free education at state-schools for several years,” said House sponsor Rep. Paul Donato (D-Medford). “With 35,000 grandparents raising their grandchildren throughout the commonwealth, this legislation will allow students being raised by their grandparents to have an equal opportunity to a tuition-free education as their peers in DCF care.” FREE TUITION FOR SENIORS OVER 60 (H 1274) – Another measure before the Higher Education Committee would establish a pilot reimbursement program for Massachusetts public higher education institutions providing tuition and fee waivers to senior citizens above the age of 60. The program would apply, subject to availability and a maximum of four courses per academic years, to qualifying seniors who are enrolled in undergraduate programs, summer sessions, evening classes or any specifi c higher education courses between July 1, 2023 and June 30, 2024. “The state’s public higher education institutions currently offer waivers for qualifying seniors, but the program is poorly utilized,” said sponsor GOP House Minority Leader Rep. Brad Jones (R-North Reading). “This bill creates a mechanism for reimbursing these institutions and establishes a stable baseline funding level for future budget cycles. The goal is to encourage more seniors to take classes while also ensuring that the state’s colleges and universities are properly compensated for lost revenues.” QUOTABLE QUOTES “Former Gov. Charlie Baker had no authority to mandate the experimental COVID shots and deny religious accommodations to these state troopers. Let us never forget this insanity. This is a great victory for these troopers and more public servants must also be reinstated and given back pay.” ---Liberty Counsel Founder and Chairman Mat Staver on an arbitrator’s decision that seven state troopers who were suspended in 2021 for refusing the COVID-19 shot for religious reasons must be reinstated and receive retroactive pay and earned seniority. “This signifi cant expansion of the [program] will make electric vehicles more affordable and accessible for residents of all in come levels. Residents will now be able to get their rebates the day they buy their car, instead of waiting for the funds to come in. And income-eligible folks will now be able to get additional rebates, including for used vehicles. This is a great development in our eff orts toward an equitable clean energy transition.” ---Gov. Healey announcing changes to the Massachusetts Off ers Rebates for Electric Vehicles Program which provides rebates for the purchase or lease of battery electric and fuel cell electric vehicles. “Healthcare is a right not a privilege. Medicare for All ensures we affirm that belief through policies that make it true, in practice, for all of our families.” ---Boston City Councilor Ricardo Arroyo on the council’s passage of his resolution in support of state legislation that would establish Medicare for all in Massachusetts. 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 August 7-11, the House met for a total of 30 minutes while the Senate met for a total of 13 minutes. Mon. August 7 House 11:00 a.m. to 11:20 a.m. Senate 11:14 a.m. to 11:23 a.m. Tues. August 8 No House session No Senate session Wed. August 9 No House session No Senate session Thurs.
