Now, they often follow up with how much they don’t want a Prop 2 1/2 override, trash fees or increased fi nes and permit fees to pay for it. This week, the City Council’s Ways & Means subcommittee took another trip through the plans and fi nancial estimates for the project with Senior Project Manager Brian Dakin and Revere’s Chief Financial Offi cer Richard Viscay. There were plenty of numbers, but no clear answers on how much the school will cost and how the city will pay for it. With Dakin, several city councillors returned to the contentious tion that the council wasn’t provided with a full picture with all the fi nancial facts before being asked to approve an eminent domain taking of the site. Zambuto also said the former dog track site was complicated by wetlands, and that the city was making an egregious error by taking the property off the city tax rolls.

The Commission met this week with staff from the Metropolitan Area Planning Council (MAPC) to discuss ways to meet that need with the Beachmont Fire Station, which is on the way to becoming a public arts center for the city. Commission members, who were working on a concept plan for the center, feel there is a need for both studio and rehearsal space as well as performance and gallery space, both of which can be created in the empty fi re station. The preservation of a historic city building for a new use is an added benefi t of the project. The MAPC has awarded the city a $40,000 technical assistance grant to help launch the project. For the MAPC, the fi rst step is surveying the city to understand what types of uses of the building are priorities for the Revere arts community, and what do residents hope to see. Commission member Brian Hawkins said it is important to focus on community-based art. “We’re about more than just putting murals on walls,” said Hawkins. “We want to develop our community.” The fi re station, which has been empty for about 17 years and has been most recently used by ARTISTIC | SEE Page 13 Mayor promotes Claudia Correa, current Director of Human Resources, to new Chief of Talent and Culture Special to Th e Advocate R ecently Mayor Brian Arrigo announced that ClauUP AND IN: Lady Patriot Belma Velic goes up for a basket against Medford defenders Medford Tuesday night.

Claudia has been the City of Revere’s Human Resources Director since January of 2022. As the HR Director, Claudia proactively created equitable, diverse and accessible systems to better support municipal employees. With her leadership in the Human Resources Team, the department implemented new ways to better respond to new and current employees’ needs. Not only did she create innovative ways to retain employees, but Claudia also revamped and updated job descriptions and expanded to new platforms to attract a broader and more diverse pool of candidates. With the rollout of the City’s fi rst Employee Survey, Claudia was able to identify many of the employees’ needs and her ability to work cross-departmentally to serve our employees.

When he announced for the I was saddened hearing of the passing of former Senate President Tom Birmingham who served the people of his senate district quite well. Always a vote and voice of his entire senate district which back in the 90s included Charlestown and Revere. I remember in 1990 when this unknown politician with both a Charlestown and Chelsea family pedigree was elected to represent a district that really needState Senate, he did it as a Chelsea guy who no matter how far he had traveled over his lifetime never forgot where he came from and straddled both those worlds quite well. As a political activist with strong Townie roots, I loved my Charlestown politics. I had moved out of Charlestown prior to Birmingham becoming its senator up on Beacon Hill but hit it off well with the new senator from across the bridge in Chelsea. Both his parents came from Charlestown as did my mother’s side of the family. I remember when he ran for governor in 2002 and I supported him. We were kindred spirits politically. I remember chatting with him back in the 90s right after he became Senate President and we spoke of my published commentaries and he told me I was more than just a writer who represented my working-class roots growing up, and that I had myself straddled over to a wider audience too while still maintaining my local roots. He may have graduated from Harvard University, Harvard Law School and ended up being a Rhodes Scholar at Oxford University but he was always more connected to his working-class Townie/Chelsea roots. The last time I spoke with him was over at the Knights of Columbus at a political function put on by today’s Charlestown state Senator Sal DiDomenico. It was good to see Tommy again. He was now wheelchair-bound but still had that glowing smile of his. We only spoke for a few minutes that evening but they were a good few minutes. His funeral Mass was held at St. Francis de Sales Church up on Bunker Hill Street. I was there Saturday morning (January 28) to say good-bye to a very good friend. He will never be forgotten by me and so many others he served so well. Prices subject to change Ask about our Heating Oil Condicioner!

Coldest weather in half a decade moves into the region today, with below-zero temperatures & potential -30 wind chill Area residents warned to take precautions – dress warmly, stay inside whenever possible By Steve Freker ll talk of the supposedly mild winter of 2022-23 will disappear this weekend as some of the coldest weather in half a decade rush in with an arctic wave. The extreme cold will affect the entire state of Massachusetts, according to the National Weather Service, including Eastern Massachusetts and The Advocate readership area of Everett, Malden, Saugus and Revere. A entine’s Day weekend in 2016, when temperatures dropped to -9 degrees. The extreme temperatures will settle in in the early morning hours on Saturday and rise slightly above zero and only as high as about 10-15 degrees throughout the day. According to the National Weather Service, a “brutal windchill” will accompany the dangerously cold air mass, which could dip as low as 25-30 degrees below zero in our greater Boston and North Shore areas of Massachusetts – even lower to -40 below zero in other parts of the state. One of the most dangerous aspects of the extreme cold air mass, forecasters say, are the expected wind gusts up to 35 to 45 miles per hour, making it feel even colder. The windchill – a measure of what it will feel like due to the combination of temperatures and wind – is expected to be close to 30 below zero Friday night into Saturday morning. The National Weather Service KEEP YOUR PETS INSIDE: If you’re cold... so are your pets! Please keep them inside during extreme cold. Forecasters say the megaextreme cold air mass – which combined with wind gusts could produce a near-record, -30 below zero wind chill factor – arrives late tonight and early Saturday morning, and temperatures could drop as low as 5 to 10 degrees below zero by midnight. It is potentially record-setting, as the existing record for February 4 in Boston is -4 degrees below zero. A -5 degrees reading would establish a new record cold. It would be the coldest air in the city since ValW ith extreme cold moving into the area today, with record cold temperatures and dangerous wind chills, the National Weather Service off ers the following tips on maintaining Extreme Cold Safety.

The peak of the windchill is expected through early Friday evening, forecasters said, before it drops off slightly overnight into Saturday. City and town offi cials in all of our Advocate communities are urging all residents to be extremely cautious in conjunction with this weather, including how to dress in extreme cold and to stay inside as much as possible. The same advice is for humans and pets when venturing outdoors in extreme cold. (See separate story on extreme cold tips.) Temperatures are expected to return to the slightly above nor—Learn how to shut off water valves for potential pipe bursts. —Check on the elderly. —Bring pets inside.

At a meeting earlier this month, board members heard a report from Bonny Carroll, director of the Six-City Tobacco Initiative, which uses undercover, underaged customers to determine if retailers are following state laws that regulate tobacco sales. During December, fi ve local businesses were found in violation of those laws. Carroll said they were issued cease and desist orders, fi ned $1,000 and had T their tobacco sales license suspended for three days. The owners of several of the businesses were at the meeting to appeal the fi nes and suspensions. Attorney Cosmo Karololos, who represented Gio Liquors, explained the facts surrounding the violation. Karalolos said his client had been in business on Broadway for four years with no prior violations. The employee who failed to check an ID and made the sale was relatively new and has since been fi red. Karalolos also presented Gio Liquors’ plans for compliance, which include employee training, an employee manual and software that can scan and check IDs. Karalolos asked that the $1,000 fi ne be remitted. Dr. Drew Bunker, chairman of the board, said Gio’s response was what health offi cials hope to see in the wake of a violation. You’ve done everything you could do, he told the owner of Gio’s. However, he said the board would have to move forward with the fi ne and suspension. “I don’t feel good about it, but unfortunately, we have to follow the law,” he said, adding that the city could fi nd itself in legal trouble if they didn’t. According to Carroll, the new state law requires that anyone buying cigarettes or tobacco products must present an ID, no matter their age. Speedway, Beachmont Liquors, State Road Liquors and Olympia Market were also found in violation of state tobacco laws. She distributed signs and information for retailers about how to check IDs. Bunker said the board understood that mistakes happen but the violations were something the board takes very seriously. “The law is the law, and we have to abide by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and what the City of Revere has adopted,” said Michael Wells, the city’s director of inspectional services. “It’s steep and I think why they made the fi nes so steep is so people learn from their fi rst violation.” A second violation carries a $2,000 fi ne and a seven-day suspension. A third violation means a loss of a tobacco sales license. Members voted unanimously to uphold the fi nes and suspensions. RevereTV Spotlight T 4.25 %APY* Special 9 Month CD Watch your savings soar!

Children often mistake a domestic dog, which has a robust shape, for a coyote. The Mass. Division of Fisheries and Wildlife gets more dog bite than coyote reports. Their fur is adaptable for winter and summer seasons. Bird said she doesn’t recommend relocating or killing them since they’re here to stay. Relocating wildlife is illegal, unless it’s done professionally by the state. There are hunting and fi rearm discharge restrictions also in place. “Hazing, such as using air horn or whistle, and eliminating food sources can help to control the population near your home,” Bird said. “It’s about educating people, not harming them.” Wattles added that people can bang pots and pans to steer away coyotes from returning near humans. “We’re trying to teach coyotes not to come near homes,” Wattles said. “If it’s being harassed, it won’t want to be sitting in your backyard.” She advised people not to charge at them and don’t run either. Coyotes can jump fences, like dogs. “It’s best to remember that they are here to stay,” Bird said. “Tolerate their behavior well within reason.” She added that confl icts often come from unintentional feeding, such as trash, compost, pet food or birdfeed being left outside. They frequently visit areas in the day and night. An audience member asked if coyotes come out in groups. Wattles replied that that’s how they teach their young how to survive on their own and to hunt. Bird advised against intentionally feeding coyotes. If neighbors feed them, either have a conversation with them against that or have an animal control offi cer talk to them. “If you live near conservation land, that’s a place that coyotes are naturally going to be,” Wattles said.

They lost a heartbreaking overtime game at Lynn Classical early last week when they let a 14-point lead slip away, and suff ered another tough OT setback to the Medford Mustangs on Tuesday. Against Medford, Revere head coach David PatriotPatriot girls girls drop drop Leary called his team's eventual 71-69 extra-session defeat a "fantastic high school game." Senior Domenic Boudreau was back in the lineup and came through with a strong performance. He fi nished with a double-double of 21 points and 13 rebounds. Vinny Vu was also a factor with 16 points to go along with fi ve assists. Vincent Nichols was the other Patriot in double fi gures with 13 points. The Patriots dropped to 5-9 overall on the season after Tuesday's loss, and resumed action on Thursday when they hosted Chelsea in their Senior Night contest. Revere then travels to face off against Malden next Tuesday. Like every other team in the Greater Boston League this season, Revere had the misfortune of having to play at the juggernaut Lynn English Bulldogs last Thursday. The Bulldogs were undefeated at 15-0 as of this week and were winning by an average margin of around 40 points a game. Given their shortage of manpower coming Revere's Vincent Nichols netted 13 points in Tuesday's overtime loss to Medford.

Center Belma Velic had a solid outing by scoring 15 points and grabbing six rebounds. Teammate Shayna Smith netted four points and came up big on the boards with 10 rebounds.

(Courtesy Northeast Metro Tech) WAKEFIELD — Superintendent David DiBarri is pleased to share that growing interest among students has led to an expansion of girls’ sports programs at Northeast Metro Tech, and that there are also two girls wrestling this year. This year Northeast Metro Tech added a girls’ ice hockey program in collaboration with Wakefield Public Schools, offering Northeast Metro Tech girls a chance to play ice hockey with students from Wakefi eld. So far six girls have signed up to play hockey on the cooperative team, with several racking up points as the team has a 6 and 8 record. Sisters Celeste Scoppettuolo and Gianna Scoppettuolo, of Revere, are among team leaders with fi ve goals and nine assists and three goals and six assists respectively. The cooperative ice hockey program enables Northeast girls to play against other girls, whereas they previously played with the boys’ ice hockey team. Meanwhile, two girls are wrestling against boys with the Northeast Metro Tech varsity wrestling team, and both are performing well so far this year. Northeast wrestlers Shelby Galex, of Woburn, and Francesca Casolli, of Revere, have both contributed to the Northeast Varsity Wrestling team this year, with Casolli starting in the 120-pound spot. "Shelby is an outstanding leader in our program and she has a great work ethic," said wrestling coach Bruce Rich. "She competes on the coed team and has won several matches, and she also fi nished second at the Senator All-Girl Wrestling Tournament on Jan. 16 as she faced 20 very competitive girls in her weight class." "I would like to congratulate Francescia on her many accomplishments. She's one of the few female wrestlers to be part of what was once an all-male varsity team, and she is also on the National Honor Society, and an impeccable student all around," said Northeast Metro Tech School Committee Member Anthony L. Caggiano of Revere. "Francescia is kind and full of determination. Francescia's parents attend all of her academic and sporting events. They should be proud of the exceptional daughter they've raised. This is what Northeast Metro Tech is all about — the success and persistence of students and growing our programs to their fullest potential." Additionally, three years ago the school also added a girls Field Hockey program, which began as a club sport but which has already grown to become a full varsity team with 20 players this year. Existing girls’ sports programs have grown as well, with 265 girls taking part in programs this grams as we can, because we try to be a no cut school," said Athletic Director Donald Heres. "More and more students are coming from the communities and they're looking forward to playing sports, so we try to do whatever we can to provide programs so we don't have to cut anybody or deny anyone an opportunity to compete." Athletic Director Heres said the school uses surveys of students to determine interest in new sporting programs, which is how the cooperative ice hockey program came to be created this year. Such surveys are conducted on an ongoing basis, as the school seeks to identify areas where student interest justifi es adding a club or varsity team. "Sports offer our students opportunities to learn about teamwork, competition, setting goals and achieving goals with hard work and dedication, all while students are able to improve their physical health," said Superintendent DiBarri. "I'm pleased to see interest in our sporting programs increase among girls, and I look forward to adding even more programs to provide an avenue for those who are interested in competing." $$ CASH FOR YOUR CAR, TRUCK OR SUV! $$ DRIVE IT - PUSH IT - TOW IT!

This was a longawaited decision by members of the Massachusetts Chapter of the National Academy of Elder Law attorneys. Several members of the Massachusetts Chapter presented an amicus curiae brief in favor of the plaintiff in the lawsuit, Laurie A. Dermody. The case was originally heard in the Superior Court in 2017 and the SJC granted an application for direct appellate review. Robert G. Hamel purchased a Medicaid annuity issued by Nationwide Life in order to seek approval for his wife Joan Hamel’s MassHealth application. He named the Commonwealth of Massachusetts the remainder benefi ciary to the “extent of benefi ts paid”, and his daughter Laurie A. Dermody as the contingent benefi ciary. Upon Robert’s death, prior to having received all of the monthly payments under the annuity policy, Laurie brought suit against MassHealth and Nationwide contending that she, rather than the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, was entitled to the remainder of the annuity payments. A Medicaid annuity is a lastminute strategy to take excess assets off of the table by purchasing it with those excess assets thereby creating a non-countable income stream for the spouse who is at home, thereby qualifying the spouse in the nursing home for MassHealth benefi ts. Congress intended on providing the at home spouse with enough income to pay for monthly living expenses and not to be impoverished. The SJC reasoned that Congress’ intent when it passed the Defi cit Reduction Act (DRA) was to name the Commonwealth of Massachusetts the remainder benefi ciary on any Medicaid annuity, regardless of whether or not the annuity was purchased by the institutionalized spouse or the community spouse. If the community spouse outlives the term of the annuity (e.g. fi ve years of monthly payments), then he or she will have enjoyed the benefi t of those monthly payments over that fi ve year period. Upon the community spouse’s death in that situation, there are no remaining payments left and no balance remaining that could be paid to the State. However, if the community spouse dies in year two or three, for example, the remaining balance of the annuity must be paid to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts to repay it for any MassHealth benefi ts paid for the institutional spouse while in the nursing home. Any remaining balance after that can then be paid to the children. Elder law attorneys have been unsure as to whether or not the annuity benefi ciary designation could state “Commonwealth of Massachusetts, to the extent of benefi ts paid on behalf of the community spouse”. The hope was that so long as the community spouse never went into a nursing home and qualifi ed for MassHealth benefits, upon his or her death, the insurance company would make payment of the remaining balance to the children. This SJC case makes it clear that will not be the case. The community spouse will simply have to live for the entire term of the annuity policy in order to protect all of that money. Otherwise, the state must be paid off in full fi rst before the children can receive anything. The SJC stated that the DRA requires the State to be named the primary remainder benefi ciary on the death of the community spouse. The SJC did hold that the Medicaid annuity met all other requirements of the statute and was an eff ective strategy in order to achieve MassHealth approval for Joan Hamel. As a further note, the look-back period was extended from 3 years to 5 years under the Defi cit Reduction Act of 2005. Joseph D.

LYNN, Mass. -- The North Shore Navigators have revealed their schedule for the 2023 New England Collegiate Baseball League (NECBL) season, featuring 22 home games and the 2023 NECBL All-Star Game, presented by Metro Credit Union, at historic Fraser Field. Monday’s announcement was made by NECBL Commissioner Sean McGrath and Navs General Manager Maggie Barden. North Shore’s home opener at Fraser Field is scheduled for Friday, June 9 against the Keene SwampBats. The 44-game summer slate will kick off two nights earlier with a Wednesday, June 7 trip to play the defending NECBL champion Martha’s Vineyard Sharks in Oak Bluff s. The 16th season of summer collegiate baseball for the Navigators will include a total of 22 home dates, including four regular-season home games on Friday nights, three on Saturdays and fi ve on Sundays. The Navs will also host the NECBL All-Star Game for the fi rst time since 2011 on the fi nal scheduled Sunday of the summer, July 23, at 4:35 p.m. Regular-season home games in 2023 are scheduled to begin at 6:35 p.m. on Monday through Thursday nights, 7:05 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays, and 5:05 p.m. on Sundays.

But to create the commission’s vision of a performance or teaching space on the lower level, where fi re engines were once kept, and the studio space on the upper level, will require some renovation for which the city will be responsible. MAPC staff , who have worked with other cities and towns on similar projects, said the city will need to hire an operator, possibly a nonprofit organization, to manage the modate fi eld trip days for local schools and camps. The Navs are excited to feature promotions and theme nights in conjunction with local businesses throughout the 2023 season, with further details to come in the spring. The popular Field of Dreams Baseball Clinic will return in 2023, with a pair of Monday through Wednesday sessions running from June 26-28 and July 10-12.

Please contact Barden (maggie@nsnavs.com) for more information and questions regarding ticket sales, booking group outings, and the Field of Dreams Baseball Clinic. On the fi eld, the Navs remain in the Coastal Division alongside the Martha’s Vineyard Sharks, Mystic (Conn.) Schooners, Newport (R.I.) Gulls and Ocean State Waves (South Kingstown, R.I.) for the second consecutive year. The North Division features the Keene (N.H.) Swamp Bats, Sanford Mainers, Upper Valley Nighthawks center. MAPC staff suggested the building would be leased to an operator with a set of criteria. However, with the city chasing every spare dime to build a new high school, it’s not clear when that may happen. “This is definitely going to happen,” said Ward 1 Councillor Joanne McKenna. “It might take a year, it may take fi ve years, but it will happen.” The next step is to test the assumptions of the commission about uses for the building. The commission is also looking for ways to gather community input to better understand what residents want and expect from a (White River Junction, Vt.) and Vermont Mountaineers (Montpelier). The North Adams (Mass.) Steeple Cats, Bristol (Conn.) Blues, Danbury (Conn.) Westerners and Valley Blue Sox (Holyoke, Mass.) make up the West Division. North Shore will play seven games against each divisional opponent, and a home-andhome series against each of the four teams in both the North and West Divisions. In the fi nal week of the regular season, each of the league’s 13 teams will play solely against division rivals in hopes of qualifying for the 2023 NECBL Postseason, which will feature a total of six teams in the three division winners and three wildcards who have the next three highest winning percentages regardless of division. A charter member of the New England League’s inaugural season dating back to 1994, the Navs rejoined the NECBL in 2021 after a nine-year hiatus and proceeded to capture the Northern Division regular-season championship. The franchise has qualifi ed for the NECBL playoff s in fi ve of its fi rst six NECBL seasons and won its fourth Fay Vincent Sr. Cup in 2010.

Surveys, focus groups, a public meeting and individual interviews are all being planned. A concept plan is expected to be complete by June. While the arts center is primarily meant to serve Revere artists and residents, the center is also an opportunity to make Revere an arts destination that showcases the city. Building and supporting the arts community is often seen as a path for economic development. Hawkins stressed that Revere has a wide range of working artists and a richly diverse community to tap into. “Across the board, we’ve got people who are gifted artists,” he said. “We’re a city of creators.” ׉ 7cassandra://OTaho9ssfOC8pfscEg1qLuwPruRJkgwvlWQLxMSQXJQ)o`̰c" H$skc" H$sk PבCט(u׉׉ 7cassandra://35YmQ--PgmTkuEzSFyNFbynqucCRdCUigP9S_BrVzLQ B`)׉ 7cassandra://Sf8wb_FWI1J9zuvYbZNard1jnsa5t_-Pu4Bp6IaRx5A͔`J׉ 7cassandra://hQGQIrEekdvd-dqNaIDsby1Uw8_1rYVuQ2VyhFo2rf8'`̰׉ 7cassandra://N6Eb-iPwHCl-wyEL7J5rpW9goXU6vR3upkUepAoypDI ͠c"H$slט((u׉׉ 7cassandra://_OSte7qBzNTmANxWJGEuZrkEbY2elnJGSVECejNELQo W.`)׉ 7cassandra://F31MzadRqxzwdzGaIsBEcoaOUT2gAVbrk5eHxFhDkpg͓`J׉ 7cassandra://C9ehdP_pTMnaI1t-IuwAqeSBAt0sCIXfdVIo-LPgDbA'`̰׉ 7cassandra://eKmCjzxpYTHNQbyeNXyVgqqkXiGyli0c7VVfzzrXrccUV͠c"H$slנc"H$slgN9ׁHhttp://stjude.orgׁ ׁ Јנc"H$slcD 9ׁHhttp://Aria.Deׁ ׁ Ј׉E&Page 14 THE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 3, 2023 By Bob Katzen If you have any questions about this week’s report, e-mail us at bob@beaconhillrollcall.com or call us at (617) 720-1562 GET A FREE SUBSCRIPTION TO MASSTERLIST – Join more than 22,000 people, from movers and shakers to political junkies and interested citizens, who start their weekday morning with MASSterList—the popular newsletter that chronicles news and informed analysis about what’s going on up on Beacon Hill, in Massachusetts politics, policy, media and infl uence.

The debate over the rules on how the House and Senate will operate during the upcoming 20232024 session will soon begin, as it does every year at the beginning of a legislative session. The rules are important and have an effect on how much power individual members have compared to House Speaker Ron Mariano (DQuincy), Senate President Karen Spilka (D-Ashland) and the rest of the Democratic leadership team. A LOOK BACK: Here are some of the new rules that House Republicans proposed for the 20212022 session, the comments of supporters and opponents of the new rules and how your local representatives voted. The proposals were all defeated mostly along party lines with the vast majority of Republicans voting for the changes and the vast number of Democrats voting against them. These four rules are likely to be offered by the GOP soon in the 20232024 session. TERM LIMITS FOR SPEAKER OF THE HOUSE (H 3930) House 35-125, rejected an amendment that would reinstate a 2009 rule that prohibited any representative from serving as speaker of the House for more than eight consecutive years. The rule was repealed in 2015. “The speaker holds the most powerful offi ce in the House of Representatives, but all 160 Representatives stand as equals when it comes to representing their constituents,” said GOP House Minority Leader Rep. Brad Jones (R-North Reading). “Setting term limits on the speaker’s offi ce is a way to prevent too much power from being consolidated in the hands of any one individual over time. Reinstating the term limits that were repealed in 2015 would send a powerful message that the House is committed to inclusion and the periodic transition of power.” “While I appreciate different ideas to continuously improve our Legislature, I do not support term limits,” said Rep. Jim O’Day (D-West Boylston). “Term limits can place the House at a severe disadvantage during negotiations with the governor and other offi cials, which is not benefi cial for advancing legislation or for our districts.” (A “Yes” vote is for term limits for the speaker. A “No” vote is against term limits for the speaker.) Rep. Jessica Giannino No Rep. Jeff Turco No POST HOW REPRESENTATIVES VOTED ON BILLS IN COMMITTEE (H 3930) House 38-121 and 41-117, rejected two similar amendments that would require that committees make public how each legislator on the committee voted on whether or not to favorably report a bill to the House. This would replace a section that would only post the names of legislators who voted against the bill and list the aggregate vote tally without names, of members voting in the affi rmative or not voting. “The public has a right to know where their legislators stand on the issues being debated in committee, and it makes absolutely no sense to identify by name only those members who vote “no” at an executive session or on a poll,”      said Rep. Brad Jones, sponsor of one of the amendments. “When we vote in the House chamber, our individual votes are displayed for all to see, and legislative committees should be held to the same standard by providing full disclosure of where each member stands on a given issue.” “I believe every resident of Massachusetts has the right to hold their elected state representative accountable,” said Rep. Erika Uyterhoeven (D-Somerville), the sponsor of the other amendment. “Under current rules, there is no accountability on the votes we take in committee. This amendment ensures that every vote taken in committee is available to the public, including when bills are sent to [a] study [committee].” Rep. Joe Wagner (D-Chicopee) opposed the listing of which representatives vote “yes” or did not vote. “The names of votes of those voting in the negative being there for everyone to see is suffi cient in terms of transparency,” said Wagner. “I have always been concerned, and I’ve chaired committees for about 20 years, and I have been always concerned that when we take votes in committee, the votes that we take to advance legislation does not refl ect necessarily, when an affi rmative vote is taken, the support for the matter as it is before the committee.” Wagner continued, “So, for example, there are points at which members will vote affi rmatively to move a matter from a committee because they support the idea conceptually of a particular piece of policy or legislation … And so I think that where a vote in the negative is very clear, a vote in the affi rmative is less clear. And there are interest groups and there are people frankly who may have agendas and would use a vote in the affi rmative, if a member’s name were attached in that way, to try to discredit a member perhaps or potentially misconstrue a member’s position on a particular issue.” (Both roll calls are listed. On both roll calls, A “Yes” vote is for the amendment. A “No” vote is against it.) Rep. Jessica Giannino No/No Rep.

Brad Jones. “One of the more glaring examples … was a recent House Ways and Means poll that gave members just 16 minutes to review a 38-page supplemental budget and a separate election reprecincting proposal. That is simply not enough time to properly review and understand these bills.” Opponents of the amendment said it goes too far. They argued the current system works fi ne and that always allowing two hours can delay getting some important and urgent bills to the House fl oor. (A “Yes” vote is for giving two hours to vote. A “No” vote is against giving two hours.) Rep. Jessica Giannino N o Rep. Jeff Turco N o GIVE LEGISLATORS 72 HOURS TO READ CONFERENCE COMMITTEE REPORTS (H 68) House 35-123, rejected an amendment that would give legislators 72 hours to read a conference committee report before voting on it. Current rules allow the conference committee report to be considered the next day. “Conference committees often require weeks or even months of negotiations between the House and Senate to arrive at a compromise bill that can be presented to the membership for a vote,” said amendment sponsor Rep. Brad Jones. “The current process allows very little time between the release of the conference committee report and the vote to accept the report for members to review and understand what they’re actually voting on. Providing a 72-hour window would give both the public and legislators a better understanding of what’s included in the conference committee report before a vote is taken.” “We are a deliberative body oftentimes debating issues for a half of the session,” said Rep. Daniel Hunt (D-Dorchester). “Over a year and a half we have come together and have great debate over the bills. Amendments are fi led. The Senate takes the same action. We might look at what the Senate did and further amend our bill. We then go to conference, where three members of each side sit in lengthy debate on our behalf and when the bill comes back to us it’s an up or down vote. I do appreciate the leader’s point where at the end of last session, because of necessity, because of the global pandemic, because of the extended session and the hour of the day, oftentimes reports were out in a 24-hour period.” (A “Yes” vote is for giving 72 hours. A “No” vote is against giving 72 hours.) Rep. Jessica Giannino No Rep.

Family and friends were invited to attend Visiting Hours in Vazza’s Funeral Home, Revere on Wednesday, February 1. A fuSCHOOL | FROM Page 1 conti asked if the council could see a comparison of building at Wonderland and the existing site. Rebuilding on the existing site has been passed over because of the opposition of neighbors who feared their homes would be taken by eminent domain and the concern about students being stuck in a construction site particularly after the academic hardships they faced during the pandemic. Although several councillors said they were told the city could lose Mass. School Building Association funding if the project reverted back to the original site, Dakin said it was possible but would require MSBA approval and would set the project back a couple of years. Dankin told councillors hard and fast numbers were impossible to promise because of rising costs in the construction industry, which are higher than most professionals can remember. Cost increases have been worked into the estimate. Council President Patrick Keefe told Viscay what everyone on the council wanted to hear is that the school can be built and paid for without an override or debt exclusion. “Can we do it with the funding we have coming in?” Keefe asked adding that he would do his part in looking for possible cuts in the city’s operating budget.

Jessica Giannino (D-Revere). “This bill will go a long way to improving the quality of life for people of the commonwealth,” said co-sponsor Rep. Sean Garballey (D-Arlington). “It builds on top of a law that was passed allowing children up to the age of 21 to receive hearing aids. This current bill would expand that coverage to every person.” RECOGNIZE HIGH SCHOOL CHEERLEADING AS A SPORT (HD 4074) – Would designate and treat high school cheerleading as a legitimate sport and have it governed by the Massachusetts Interscholastic Athletic Association (MIAA) which currently governs 19 other high school sports. “I fi led this bill to have cheerleading designated a sport at the high school level, governed by the MIAA so that it is supported like all other team-based athletic programs off ered in high schools across the state,” said sponsor Rep. Marc Lombardo (R-Billerica). “I have fi led it … for the town of Billerica, [because] our cheerleading program is one of the best in the state and just won their 8th state championship this past March.” Supporters said that Bay State high school cheerleading is currently governed by the Massachusetts Schools Administrators’ Association (MSAA) which only supports Cheer/Game Day, Dance and eSports. They argued it would be more appropriate to have the MIAA run and support this highly athletic and competitive sport. HIS, HER AND THEIR EXCELLENCY THE GOVERNOR (HD 3598 and HD 3729) – Would amend the part of the state constitution that creates the title “His Excellency” for the governor and lieutenant governor. The proposal would add two more possible titles – “Her Excellency” and “Their Excellency.” “It’s time to bring Massachusetts into the 21st century,” said sponsor Rep. Jenny Armini (DMarblehead). “Given who is sitting in the corner offi ce, it’s obviously ridiculous that the constitution doesn’t recognize Gov. Healey’s gender. We must plan for the future, which is why these bills also include language to accommodate those across the gender spectrum.” RAISE THE MINIMUM WAGE FROM $15 PER HOUR TO $20 PER HOUSE (HD 3965) – Would increase, over a 4-year period (20242027), the minimum wage from $15 per hour to $20 per hour; and the tipped worker minimum from $6.75 to $12, increasing it from 45 percent of minimum wage to 60 percent of it. Another provision beginning in 2028, would index the minimum wage for infl ation, using the consumer price index. “While we celebrate the significant victory of the 2018 law, we know that working families and individuals are still under enormous fi nancial stress with rising infl ation and increased costs of housing and living,” said sponsor Rep. Tram Nguyen (D-Andover). “They are struggling to meet their basic needs and provide for their families.” QUOTABLE QUOTES “One of the most eff ective ways to reduce tobacco use, not only among low-income individuals but also for youth, is to signifi - cantly increase the tax on all tobacco products, including e-cigarettes. Multiple studies have shown that every 10 percent increase in the price of cigarettes reduces consumption by about 4 percent among adults and about 7 percent among youth.” ---The American Lung Association recommending that Massachusetts lawmakers increase the state’s current $3.51 per pack tax on cigarettes by at least $1. “We need tax reform. We need tax relief. Making Massachusetts more competitive and attractive means doing just that. I know how important this is to the business community.” ---Gov. Maura Healey in a speech to the business group Associated Industries of Massachusetts. “The dedicated men and women who keep our communities safe too often hide the significant stress and trauma they incur from the job. Every offi cer in the commonwealth must have access to quality mental health services and peer support to combat this stigma.” ---Sen. Mark Montigny (D-New Bedford) on distribution of money for a statewide grant program, which he created via legislation in 2018, providing police offi cers across Massachusetts with access to mental health services and peer support. “We know that when kids are hungry at school they cannot learn. We know that hungry kids have problems concentrating, have lower academic achievement, suff er cognitive development impairments and exhibit more behavioral problems in their food secure peers.” ---Rep. Andres Vargas (D- Haverhill) on his bill that would allow every Massachusetts student to receive free breakfast or lunch in school without providing income or other eligibility information. 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 January 2317, the House met for a total of 12 minutes while the Senate met for a total of 23 minutes. Mon. Jan. 23 House 11:03 a.m. to 11:05 a.m. Senate 12:03 p.m. to 12:05 p.m. Tues. Jan. 24 No House session No Senate session Wed. Jan. 25 No House session No Senate session Thurs.

Could You Have a Thyroid Problem and Not Know It? Thank you! Jim Miller 405-360-4228 SavvySenior.org How to Cover Dental Care in Retirement Dear Savvy Senior, I had dental insurance through my work for many years but lost it when I retired and joined Medicare. Where can retirees fi nd aff ordable dental care? Uninsured Al Dear Al, Unfortunately, about twothirds of U.S. retirees don’t have dental insurance today. Without coverage from traditional Medicare, and with private dental insurance typically costing too much to be feasible, most seniors are stuck paying full outof-pocket prices every time they visit a dentist. While there’s no one simple solution to aff ordable dental care there are a variety of options that can help cut your costs. Here’s where to look. Medicare Advantage: While dental services are mostly excluded under original Medicare, many Medicare Advantage plans do provide coverage for dental care, but it’s usually very limited. Medicare Advantage plans are government approved health plans (usually HMOs and PPOs) sold by private insurance companies that you can choose in place of original Medicare. To shop and research Advantage plans in your area visit Medicare. gov/plan-compare or call 800633-4227. Dental insurance: If you have gum problems and need extensive dental care, a dental insurance plan may be worth the costs versus paying for care yourself. Monthly premiums for individual plans range from about $20 to $80. A typical plan includes two or three cleanings and checkups per year, but these plans will likely have a waiting period – anywhere from a few months to a few years – before coverage for more expensive procedures kicks in. To fi nd dental plans in your area, see eHealthInsurance.com. Dental savings plans: While savings plans aren’t as comprehensive as insurance, they are a good option for those who don’t have dental insurance. How this works is you pay an annual membership fee – around $80 to $200 a year – in exchange for 10 to 60 percent discounts on service and treatments from participating dentists. To fi nd a savings plan, go to DentalPlans.com (or 888632-5353) where you can search for plans and participating dentists, as well as get a breakdown of the discounts off ered. Veterans’ benefi ts: If you’re a veteran enrolled in the VA health care program or are a benefi ciary of the Civilian Health and Medical Program (CHAMPVA), the VA offers a dental insurance program that gives you the option to buy dental insurance through Delta Dental and MetLife at a reduced cost. The VA also provides free dental care to vets who have dental problems resulting from service. To learn more about these options, visit VA.gov/dental or call 877-222-8387. Cheaper dental care: Because prices can vary by dentist, one way to ensure you get a good deal on your dental care is to call multiple provides and compare prices. To get an idea of what diff erent dental procedures cost in your area, see FairHealthConsumer.org. If you’re paying cash, it’s also perfectly reasonable to ask your dentist for a discount. There are also a number health centers and clinics that provide low-cost dental care to those in need. And all university dental schools and college dental hygiene programs off er dental care and cleanings for less than half of what you would pay at a dentist’s offi ce. Students who are supervised by their professors provide the care. See TeethWisdom. org to search for a center, clinic or school near you. Send your senior questions to: Savvy Senior, P.O.

According to the American Gaming Association, a record 46.6 million people planned to bet COMMERCIAL & RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY SALES & RENTALS on the 2022-2023 NFL season. That’s nearly 18 percent of all American adults! If you’re planning on getting in on the action, first learn how you can maximize your fun and play responsibly. The Better Business Bureau (BBB) off ers the following tips for responsible sports betting: • Understand gambling terminology. A basic wager in which you bet on who will win a game is called a money line bet, but there are many other terms you’ll need to get to know as well. Get familiar with point-spread, prop and futures bets and how each works. In addition, learn what terms like juice, parlay, total and teaser mean before you start placing bets. • Get familiar with sports Norma Capuano Parziale 617-590-9143 statistics. It should go without saying, but don’t place a bet without researching. Use reputable sources to get statistical breakdowns on the teams and players on whom you want to bet to ensure the odds are in your favor. • Set limits for yourself. The Joe DiNuzzo 617-680-7610 International Center for Responsible Gaming (ICRG) recommends establishing what constitutes an acceptable loss before you start gambling. Knowing when to stop and only gambling with money you can aff ord to lose is critical. You might also want to set time limits for yourself regarding sports betting. • Avoid high-risk betting. Don’t borrow money to gamble, and avoid gambling if you are emotionally distressed. Remember that gambling under the infl uence of alcohol is risky since your good judgment could be compromised. • Only place bets with reputable bookmakers. Whether you’re placing a bet in person or online, only use “white-listed” sports books that your local gaming commission approves. • Be wary of paid handicappers. Sports handicappers might off er amazing odds, thanks to “insider information,” but often scams are behind their too-good-to-be-true promises. Some handicappers off er money-back guarantees or free picks if you make a losing wager, but these are also signs of a scam. • Watch out for scams. Handicappers aren’t the only source of scams regarding sports betting. Watch out for pop-up gambling ads, email spam or text messages that take you to websites off ering “risk-free” bets, exaggerated incentives or deceptive bonuses. Bogus betting websites often use these tactics to draw in unsuspecting customers. • Get help if you need it. If you suspect you or a loved one suff ers from a gambling addiction, get help from the National Council on Problem Gambling. You can call their hotline or fi nd other resources available in your state.
