As a Veteran, I learned
the principles of duty, honor
and courage which to this day
still impact every facet of my

I have been a strong advocate

and occupationally.
I have also worked closely with
the Cityâ€™s economic development
which has brought thousands

the standard of living for many
of our residents. There are some
running for office this year that
criticize the progress of our

before the General Election,
incumbent School Committee
members and challengers
answered questions
from voters about diversity, the
search for the next superintendent
of schools and a myriad of
other topics.

â€œ Serving on active duty for 8-years in the U.S. Navy, I learned

tendent search, School Committee
Chairman Thomas Abruzzese
vowed that the next top
administrator would not come
from the Everett Public Schools.
â€œWe are going to find a superintendent
who is from outside
this district; any change to that
will be over my dead body,â€� he
said during the October 29 candidates
forum.
Ward 3 Member Frank Parker
said the search has been a
â€œpublic process,â€� adding that
survey results and input from
two public forums have been
taken into consideration.
When the time comes to
vote for a new superintendent,
Ward 1 Member Allen Panarese
said, he will remain steadfast in
his decision. â€œWhen I go with
something, I go with it,â€� he said.
â€œIâ€™m not going to be a flip-flop.â€�
Ward 4 Member David Ela
said the 15-member Search
Committee collectively spent
more than 350 hours mulling
over resumes, conducting interviews
and deliberating.
Regarding diversity, Parker
said greater diversification
is needed in both staffing and
curriculum development. â€œWe
need to celebrate culture, bring
it in,â€� he said.
Ward 4 challenger Dana Murray
spoke about her experience
working with different groups
of students as a teacher in the
Boston Public Schools for more
than 20 years. â€œYou name it, Iâ€™ve
done it all in terms of student
population,â€� she said. â€œI am a
teaching and learning expert.â€�
Abruzzese said he was surWard
4 Member David Ela
prised to hear that English Language
Learners (ELL) still have
needs that are not being met. â€œI
donâ€™t understand why services
arenâ€™t being provided; we have
plenty of money,â€� he said.
Ward 5 Member Marcony
Almeida-Barros was also taken
aback, noting the recent hiring
of additional staff. â€œWe just voted
to hire new teachers, where
are they going? Are they going
to ELL?â€� he asked.
Regarding the districtâ€™s high
enrollment figures, Ward 6
challenger John Mavilio said
30 students in a class is â€œway
too high.â€�
However, Almeida-Barros
said that is the current reality.
â€œThere is no class in Everett
that has 20 kids or 18 kids â€“ all
the schools are packed,â€� he said.
The candidates also addressed
the issue of high school
seniors who are unsure about
their lives after graduation.
At-Large challenger Samantha
Lambert said it would be
beneficial to have upperclassmen
enrolled in the Academy
Program to help them explore
career options that may
not have existed 30 years ago.
â€œItâ€™s a very different world right
now,â€� she said.
In addition, At-Large challenger
Daniel Skeritt said, an
external community resource
center should also be available
to students.
At-Large challenger David
Lindsey said the process
needs to begin at a young
age. â€œPreparing them for success
starts in elementary
school,â€� he said.

City raises
nearly $30K on
Brandon Conde
Day
Dear Editor:
On September 26, Widmac
Laterion and Jess Trejo came
to my office to share the story
of their friend, Brandon Conde,
who had suffered a life-altering
spinal cord injury which
rendered him a tetraplegic.
While telling me the moving
story of Brandon, I could feel
the love they had for Brandon
and it compelled me to
help them out in any way that
I could. At the time, the GoFundMe
they set up for Brandon
had achieved a donation
total of $16,500, well-short of
their $50,000 goal.
Brandonâ€™s story stuck with
me. After discussing with my
staff, we came up with the
idea of dedicating a day to
this young man. On October
24, â€œBrandon Conde Dayâ€�, we
asked that everyone, city-wide,
wear red and donate to Brandonâ€™s
cause.
On the morning of October
24, Brandonâ€™s GoFundMe
had reached $22,000. However,
the City of Everett, its
employees, its students, and
its residents knew how vitally
important their role was in
helping to achieve the goal
of $50,000. During the day,
over $10,000 was donated directly
to the GoFundMe account.
The School Department
matched this, donating
an additional $10,000. Following
the City-sponsored Brandon
Conde event at the Schiavo
Club on the night of October
24, I am proud to announce
that we managed to surpass
the $50,000 goal! As a community,
we raised close to $30,000
in one day, and words truly
cannot express how proud I

THE EVERETT ADVOCATEâ€“Friday, November 1, 2019
MassFiscal applauds Senateâ€™s reasonable
approach to Campaign Finance Bill
No tricks in bill despite Halloween release
T
he Massachusetts Fiscal Alliance
released the following
statement in response to
the State Senateâ€™s removal of
controversial elements from a
campaign finance bill passed
by House lawmakers several
weeks ago. The House version
of the bill included a provision
that sought to strip the Republican
party of their voice in the
selection of the director of the
Office of Campaign & Political
Finance. The House legislation
sought to replace the current
bipartisan committee that
makes the selection with one
dominated by Democratic politicians
and their appointees.
â€œCommon sense and bipartisanship
prevailed in the State
Senate, which is in stark contrast
to the approach taken
by the Speaker. On both sides
of the aisle, the Senators who
worked on the bill should
be applauded,â€� said Paul D.
Craney, a spokesman for the
Massachusetts Fiscal Alliance.
The controversial provision
seeks to replace a system in
place since 1973, wherein the
director of OCPF is selected
by the Chair of the Republican
Party, Chair of the Democratic
Party, and appointees of both
the Secretary of State and the
Governor. A unanimous vote is
currently required for appointment,
guaranteeing the selection
of a consensus candidate
acceptable to all parties.
â€œIf the House proposal were
to be enacted, the agencyâ€™s integrity
would be questioned.
When the House took the vote
to move the controversial provision
forward, they voted to
transform the Office of Campaign
and Political Finance
into the â€˜Democraticâ€™ Office
of Campaign and Political Finance,â€�
said Craney.
The proposed change concentrated
much of the power
in the selection process into
the hands of the Secretary of
State and Attorney General.
Those offices have been occupied
by Democrats since 1949
and 1969, respectively, and
would have the power to consistently
outvote the Governor
on all matters. Election of the
director would also no longer
require a unanimous decision,
with that threshold being lowered
to four-fifths.
â€œCampaign finance law
should be fair and clear. Fair
for all parties and clear so that
everyone can follow the law.
House Democrats sought to
make our campaign finance
laws fundamentally unfair. The
Senate deserves credit for undoing
that wrong and we sincerely
hope that they insist on
their wording when the bill inevitably
goes to conference,â€�
said Craney.

he Middlesex Sheriffâ€™s Office
is warning residents of
a new twist on a previously reported
scam.
On Wednesday, October 23,
the Middlesex Sheriffâ€™s Office
(MSO) received a call from a local
resident reporting she had
Our 80th Year
EDUCATION
Next Classes
DRIVER
been contacted by an individual
identifying himself as a
member of the MSO. The man
â€“ using the name of a retired
Middlesex County, New Jersey
officer â€“ said he was seeking
to collect bond money for her
alleged failure to respond to
a subpoena. Recognizing the
call was a scam, the woman
hung up. The man then called
back a second time, with â€œMiddlesex
Sheriffâ€™s Officeâ€� showing
on the womanâ€™s caller ID.
In previous scams, individuals
have used spoofing technology
to display telephone
numbers associated with legitimate
law enforcement agencies.
This scam is similar to previously
reported ones in which
callers pose as members of
law enforcement, the IRS or
the courts, claiming warrants
have been issued for residentsâ€™
failure to pay taxes or perform
jury duty. The imposters will
tell those they have called that
they can avoid arrest if they
pay an immediate fine.
â€œAs these scams evolve and
spread, itâ€™s critical that residents
be aware of the underlying
similarities so that they
can protect themselves and
their hard-earned money,â€� said
Middlesex County Sheriff Peter
Koutoujian. â€œIn this case, the
intended victim immediately
recognized this was a scam
and notified us, allowing us to
alert the public.â€�

Funding to launch business and

By Christopher Roberson
E

was recently chosen by the
Baker-Polito Administration to
receive a $28,100 grant to implement
an information technology
program as well as a business
and finance program through
Innovation Pathways.
Interim Superintendent of
Schools Janice Gauthier said this
is the third Innovation Pathways
grant that Everett has received
â€œthanks to dedicated administration
and staff of EHS who believe
in the Academy model.â€�
The grant is part of a $354,000
state effort to implement Innovation
Pathways in 21 high
schools. Next spring, these
schools will be eligible to be designated
as having Innovation
Pathways by the state Department
of Elementary and Secondary
Education and Department
of Higher Education. In order
to apply for the designation,
schools must adhere to five design
policies which include â€œequitable
access for all students, a
guided academic pathway that
must relate to one of five specified
broad industry sectors, enhanced
student supports, relevant
connections to career and
deep partnerships between
high schools and employers or
workforce development boards.â€�

City Council still leery
about small cell antennas
By Christopher Roberson
T
he City Council has continued
to exercise caution
as to whether or not Extenet,
LLC will be permitted to install
a series of small cell antennas
on telephone poles throughout
the city.
The request was initially presented
to the council during
the September 23 meeting
before being referred to the
Committee of the Whole.
During its October 28 meeting,
the council voted to postpone
the matter for two more
weeks as City Solicitor Colleen
Mejia needed additional time
to review Extenetâ€™s proposal.
Prior to voting, Councillor-at-Large
Wayne Matewsky
expressed concerns about antennas
being added to the existing
equipment.
â€œWe have to be mindful that
you can only put so much on
a pole,â€� he said. â€œThereâ€™s things
the size of small refrigerators
on these poles.â€�
However, Rosanna Ferrante,
representing Extenet, said
the company would need approval
from National Grid before
the antennas could be installed.

schools in Massachusetts that
have Innovation Pathways.
â€œInnovation Pathways are designed
to engage students who
are trying to discover what the
next steps in their future careers
are and help them succeed
through college-level courses
and internships,â€� said Governor
Charlie Baker in a written
statement. â€œWe are proud to
continue investing in these important
programs and appreciate
American Student Assistanceâ€™s
support with this generous
award, and are pleased that
high schools across the Commonwealth
will be able to give
students better insight into the
choices available to them.â€�
Since its launch nearly three
years ago, Innovation Pathways
has provided students with â€œexperience
in a specific high-demand
industry through coursework
and internships at local
employers.â€� In addition to IT and
business and finance, the program
also specializes in teachfrom
the Senate last month.
â€œWeâ€™re all in agreement,
weâ€™re all in alignment,â€� he said,
adding that Everett is expected
to receive at least $19 million,
which will be doled out
incrementally over the next
seven fiscal years. â€œThe $19
million figure is very conservative.â€�
DiDomenico
is also confident
that the funding will remain
intact throughout the
coming years.
â€œEven if the economy shifts a
little bit and enrollment shifts
a little bit, these numbers will
remain very strong for Everett.â€�
The bill is now before Governor
Charlie Baker.
Although the bill received
overwhelming support in
the Legislature, DiDomenico
said Baker has been reluctant
about signing it into law.
â€œHe is a fiscally conservative
governor, he has reservations
about how itâ€™s going to
be funded,â€� said DiDomenico.
In the event that Baker vetoes
the bill, DiDomenico said
the Legislature is prepared to
override the governorâ€™s veto.
Therefore, he said he expects
the Student Opportunity
Act to be signed into law by
Thanksgiving.
Ward 1 Councillor Fred Capone
praised DiDomenico for
his persistence in getting the
bill passed.
â€œYou have worked very hard
from the very beginning and
pushed it all the way through,â€�
he said.

and social assistance.
â€œWhen students have a sense
of purpose, they become more
interested and engaged in their
studies, able to easily see how
it all fits into their future,â€� said
Secretary of Education James
Peyser. â€œAs more students gain
skills and knowledge in different
fields of study, they will have
a better sense of what courses
to pursue in college or additional
career training, increasing the
likelihood of their success.â€�
Secretary of Housing and Economic
Development Michael
Kennealy also expressed support
for Innovation Pathways.
â€œMassachusetts is home to one
of the worldâ€™s leading innovation
economies, and programs
like Innovation Pathways make
that critical connection between
employers and promising talent,
setting the stage for rewarding
careers that help propel our
economy and Commonwealth
forward,â€� he said.

City councillors and candidates address Everettâ€™s immigrant community
By Christopher Roberson
A
group of incumbent city
councillors were recently
joined by their political challengers
to answer questions about
housing, schools, jobs, municipal
access and equity as well as
immigration and diversity.
Speaking about municipal
access and equity, City Council
President Richard Dell Isola
said the city needs more bilingual
employees. â€œYou canâ€™t go
into City Hall and not be able
to speak to someone,â€� he said
during the October 23 candidatesâ€™
forum, adding that bilinShown
from left to right during the candidates forum are Councillor-at-Large candidate Renee Solano,
Ward 5 Councillor candidate Vivian Thuc Nguyen, Ward 1 Councillor Fred Capone, Councillor-at-Large
candidate Catherine Tomassi Hicks, Ward 2 Councillor candidate Stephanie Martins,
City Council President Richard Dell Isola, Ward 6 Councillor Michael McLaughlin, Councillor-at-Large
candidate Joseph LaMonica and Councillor-at-Large Peter Napolitano.
gual first responders are vitally
important as well. â€œItâ€™s something
we have to work on.â€�
Councillor-at-Large candidate
Joseph LaMonica said he would
support an incentive program
for employees to learn a second
language.
One resident asked how the

councillors would respond if
federal officials ordered them
to provide a list of residents who
are undocumented immigrants.

Peter Napolitano fielding questions from Everettâ€™s immigrant
community.
lor-at-Large Peter Napolitano.
â€œThese people are a part of our
community.â€�
Ward 1 Councillor Fred Capone
said he would also resist
submitting a list to the federal
government. â€œI would oppose it
as much as we could legally,â€� he
said. â€œYou get a judge to tell me
we have to turn it over.â€�
Napolitano said there have
been discussions about protecting
immigrant residents by
making Everett a sanctuary city.
â€œItâ€™s a very dangerous time right
now; we donâ€™t want people to
be afraid,â€� he said.
However, Napolitano said that
Mayor Carlo DeMaria has not favored
the idea of becoming a
sanctuary city.
Speaking about housing,
Councillor-at-Large candidate
Gerly Adrien said the stateâ€™s
threshold for affordable housing
needs to be increased. â€œTen

perience, we can move Everett
forward together.
My name is Peter A. Napolitano
and I respectfully ask for
one of your five votes to reelect
me back to the City Council as
one of your Councilors At Large.
If you would like to assist me in
my campaign or have an issue
percent is way too low,â€� she
said, adding that it is â€œridiculousâ€�
that the market rate for a
studio apartment is $2,000 per
month. Adrien also said the
council approved the redevelopment
of Everett Square without
considering the request for
low-income housing in that part
of the city.
Ward 5 candidate Vivian Thuc
Nguyen said she would like to
see the city have a rent cap, adding
that the cap could take effect
after a tenant has been in
the same unit for four years. â€œItâ€™s
definitely important to cap rent,â€�
she said.
In addition, Adrien said more
guidance counselors and social
workers are needed in the
schools. She also said that right
now the district spends â€œ$9,000
to $10,000â€� per student as opposed
to Cambridge, which
spends $17,000 per student.
or question, I can be reached
at 617-389-7340, friend me on
Facebook or email me at panward1@aol.com.
Remember,
on Election Day, November 5th,
please vote for me, Peter A. Napolitano
as your Councilor At
Large, Number 3 on the Ballot,
elected city wide. Together we
can continue to move Everett
forward. Thank you.

Everett riding six-game win
streak entering playoffs
By Greg Phipps
T
here may have been
some panic after the Everett
Crimson Tide opened
the regular season with a
four-touchdown home loss
to defending Div. 3 state
champion Springfield Central.
But everything appears
to be back in its normal place
as the Tide enter the Div. I
North tournament by hosting
a first-round game at Veterans
Memorial Stadium this
week.
The one difference is Everett
(6-1 overall) may not
play at home in round two
if it advances past the opening-round
tilt. The Tide received
a No. 4 seeding and
face off against fifth-seeded
Acton-Boxborough (5-2) at 7
p.m. Friday night.
Everett claimed the Greater
Boston League (GBL) title
this season by rolling past
the other three league opponents
(Malden, Medford and
Somerville) by a combined
128-13 margin. But itâ€™s the
playoffs and a possible state
Super Bowl bid the Tide are
really looking towards.
The offensive attack features
quarterback Duke
Doherty, who ran for one
touchdown and threw for
two others two weeks ago
against Somerville. He is aided
by running backs Jayden
Clerveaux and Clarence Jules
and receivers Tyrese Baptiste
and Josh Nieves, to name just
a few members of a deep roster
of offensive weapons.
Defensively, Everett has
been stingy, only giving up
13 points in its last three
games. Of course, those numbers
have come against less
formidable opposition in the
three GBL foes. But the Tide
can hang their hat on three
straight comeback-style wins
over perennial powerhouses
Xaverian, St. Johnâ€™s of Shrewsbury,
and Brockton before entering
the league portion of
their schedule.
Everett seems to be operating
on all cylinders entering
this yearâ€™s tournament.
The school has qualified for
the postseason 19 straight
seasons and has won 10 Super
Bowl titles in that time.
Everett has captured a total
of 12 Super Bowl crowns in
its history.
Current head coach Theluxon
Pierre has gone 16-2
overall (counting last yearâ€™s
playoff loss to Central Catholic)
since taking over the Everett
reins last year. He and
his team could have a rematch
with Central Catholic
if the Raiders emerge victorious
in their first-round game
against No. 8 seed Lexington.
If Lexington pulls the upset,
the Tide would be at home for
the second round. Of course,
that will mean getting past
Acton-Boxborough first. The
Colonials are no pushover
and enter the playoffs having
won three straight.

Savvy Senior
How to Help Aging Parents
Manage their Medications
Dear Savvy Senior,
What tips or tools can you recommend that can help seniors and
their caregivers keep up with medications? My 82-year-old mother,
who lives alone, is supposed to take several different medications at
various times of the day but often forgets. Working Daughter
Dear Working,
Anybody who juggles multiple
medications can relate to the
problem of forgetting to take a
medication, or not remembering
whether they already took it.
This is especially true for older
adults who take medications at
varying times of the day. Here
are some different product and
service solutions that may help.
Simple Medication
Helpers
Getting organized and being
reminded are the two keys to
staying on top of a medication
schedule. To help your mom
achieve this, there are a wide
variety of pillboxes, medication
organizers, vibrating watches,
beeping pill bottles and even
dispensers that will talk to her
that can make all the difference.
To find these types of products,
the best source is Epill.com,
where youâ€™ll find dozens to
choose from.
You can also help your mom
stay organized by creating
a simple medication list that
breaks down exactly what she
should take and when she
should take it. To help you with
this, go to SafeMedication.
com â€“ a resource from the
American Society of HealthSystem
Pharmacists â€“ and
download and print a copy of
â€œMy Medicine List.â€�
Smart Pill Boxes
There are also a variety of
â€œsmartâ€� pill boxes on the market
today that will remind your
mom when she needs to take
her medicine and will send
family members and caregivers
notifications if she forgets to
take her pills, or accidentally
takes the wrong ones.
Three to consider here
include Tricella (Tricella.com,
$95), which uses Bluetooth
connectivity but requires that
your mom have a smartphone
with data service or tablet with WiFi;
PillDrill (PillDrill.com, $279),
a comprehensive system ideal
for strict medication schedules
but requires home Wi-Fi; and
MedMinder (MedMinder.com,
$40 per month), that operates
off a cellular network (no phone
line or Wi-Fi necessary).
Convenient Packaging
Another way to help simplify
your momâ€™s medication use is
to get her prescriptions filled in
single-dose packets that put all
her medications (vitamins and
over-the-counter drugs can be
included too) together in neatly
labeled packets organized by
date and the time of day they
should be taken. This does
away with all the pill bottles
and pill sorting. One of the top
providers of this type of service
is PillPack.com, an online
pharmacy owned by Amazon.
Apps and Calling
Services
If your mom has a
smartphone, there are apps she
could use to help her keep up
with her medication. One of the
best is Medisafe (MyMedisafe.
com), a free app works on Apple
and Android phones. Medisafe
will organize your momâ€™s pills
in one place, send her timely
notifications to take her meds,

$1 BILLION PLUS FOR EDUCATION
(H 4157)
House 155-0, approved the Student
Opportunity Act that invests
$1.5 billion, mostly in the form of
Chapter 70 Aid for local school districts,
in the state's public K-12 education
system over the next seven
years. The measure implements
the recommendations of the Foundation
Budget Review Commission
which found the state was underfunding
schools by more than $1
billion annually.
â€œI am proud of the bill passed in
the House as it is the result of countless
hours of research, analysis and
input from all stakeholders in the
education field," said Education
Committee chair Rep. Alice Peisch
(D-Wellesley). â€œThis bill ensures that
students across the commonwealth
have access to the tools necessary
for academic and post-secondary
success. It is a massive step toward
a more equitable funding structure,
which will provide the additional resources
necessary to level the playing
field.â€�
â€œThe new funding will mean
smaller class sizes, more enrichment
programs and electives, an increase
in guidance services, more classroom
aides, improved programs
for English learners and special education
students and greater ability
for districts to foster caring, effective,
innovative schools,â€� said Mass
Teachersâ€™ Association President Merrie
Najimy.
The Senate has approved a different
version of the $1 billion plus
package and a House-Senate conference
committee will eventually
hammer out a compromise version
that wIll be approved by both
branches and sent off to Gov. Baker.
(A â€œYesâ€� vote is for the bill.)
Rep. Joseph McGonagle Yes
FREE FULL-DAY KINDERGARTEN
(H 4157)
House 7-147, rejected an amendment
that would provide grants to
cities and towns to support the establishment
of free full-day kindergarten
programs in schools that do
not offer it for free, and to support
schools at a financial risk of losing
an existing free full-day kindergarten
program.
Amendment supporters said a
similar grant program was in effect
from 2000 to 2017 but was then
eliminated when state tax revenue
went down $600 million. They said
that gutting the grants left 83 percent
of districts with free all-day kindergarten
and 17 percent without
it. They said the amendment is designed
to ensure that every child in
every school district has access to
free all-day kindergarten.
Amendment opponents said the
grant program was intended to be
transitional, not permanent. They
noted that 17 percent of districts
that were not offering full-day programs
were doing it for reasons
that were particular to their districts.
They tended to be able to offer
full-day programs but chose not
to do so.
(A â€œYesâ€� vote is for the grant program.
A â€œNoâ€� vote is against it.)
Rep. Joseph McGonagle No
$780 MILLION BUDGET (S 2378)
Senate 39-0, approved a $780 million
fiscal 2020 supplemental budget
to cover expenses and to fund
various state programs and agencies
that are running out of money.
The package also sets the state's
next primary election before Labor
Day by making it on Sept. 1, 2020
and allows for five days of early voting
ahead of the primary; allows
farmers to cultivate hemp on land
with agricultural preservation restrictions;
and transfers $356 million
to the stateâ€™s stabilization fund that
would jump to $3.2
The Senate version costs $50 million
more than the one recently approved
by the House and unlike the
House bill, does not decouple the
Bay State from the federal tax code
to allow corporate interest deductions.
It also does not include $5
million the governor sought to fight
fentanyl trafficking.
â€œWith todayâ€™s passage of this supplemental
budget, the Senate is responsibly
closing the books on Fisference
committee will hammer out
a compromise version of the budget
that will be approved by both
branches and will go to Gov. Bakerâ€™s
desk.
(A â€œYesâ€� vote is for the budget.)
Sen. Sal DiDomenico
Yes
$250,000 FOR VISITOR INFORMATION
CENTERS (S 2378)
Senate 9-30, rejected an amendment
providing $250,000 for the
11 Massachusetts visitor information
centers.
Amendment supporters said
these centers are important places
where visitors and tourists go to get
information while staying in the Bay
State. They argued the centers facilitate
commerce and generate revenue
for the state.
Amendment opponents said the
amendment is well-intentioned but
noted that the House must hold
the line on additional spending if
it wants to put away money in the
Stateâ€™s Rainy Day Fund. They noted
that there are other boosts for tourism
in the budget including a $1.2
million increase in funding for regional
tourism councils.
(A â€œYesâ€� vote is for the $250,000. A
â€œNoâ€� vote is against it.)
Sen. Sal DiDomenico
No
$200,000 FOR WOMEN AND
CHILDRENâ€™S HEALTH (S 2378)
Senate 38-1, approved an amendment
providing $200,000 for the Silent
Spring Institute for research
on links between environmental
chemicals and women and childrenâ€™s
health.
Amendment supporters said the
Institute was created to examine elevated
breast cancer rates on Cape
Cod. They said the research is very
important for Massachusetts residents
who have elevated breast cancer
risks because there are toxins in
the environment.
â€œI have a long-standing policy of
opposing [earmarks],â€� said Sen. Sonia
Chang-Diaz (D-Boston) who
opposed the amendment. â€œWhile
some earmarks benefit wonderful
organizations, overall I believe earmarking
hurts our ability to plan
long-term fiscal policy and undermines
opportunities for fair, transparent,
rigorous allocation of taxpayersâ€™
dollars. I find other ways to
go to bat for great organizations
and causes."
(A â€œYesâ€� vote is for the $200,000. A
â€œNoâ€� vote is against it.)
Sen. Sal DiDomenico Yes
DOUBLE DEPENDENT TAX
CREDIT (S 2378)
Senate 10-28, rejected an amendment
that would double a dependent
tax credit, from $1,000 per year
to $2,000, for families with children
and those who care for an elderly or
disabled relative. The break was first
proposed by Gov. Charlie Baker in
his version of a supplemental budget
but was stripped from the House
and Senate versions of the budget.
Amendment supporters said the
state has a more than $1 billion surplus
and can afford to help working
families with a reasonable tax cut.
â€œA taxpayer with two children and
a dependent elderly parent would
be eligible for a $6,000 exemption
under this proposal, up from $3,000,
with tax savings rising from $150 to
$300,â€� said
Baker when he filed the proposal
back in September. â€œThis change is
expected to reduce tax collections
by $87 million per year and I recommend
reserving $175 million to
cover approximately two years at
the higher exemption rate, which
will give budget writers sufficient
time to adjust to the revision in collections.â€™
Amendment
opponents said it is
not a good idea to implement a tax
cut when the economy is flourishing.
They argued when the state has
excess revenues, the money should
put it away in the Rainy Day Fund so
it will be there when the economy
eventually tanks.
(A â€œYesâ€� vote is for the tax cut. A
â€œNoâ€� vote is against it.)
Sen. Sal DiDomenico
No
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 filed. 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 October 2125,
the House met for a total of 14
hours and 15 minutes while the Senate
met for a total of seven hours
and 20 minutes.
Mon. Oct. 21 House 11:01 a.m. to 2:50 p.m.

Wilmington, formerly of Everett,
passed away at the Kaplan Family
Hospice House surrounded by his
loving family on October 23, 2019.
Ben was born in Calatafimi, Sicily,
Italy on September 21, 1948. Ben
moved with his parents and his sister
to the U.S. when he was 6 years
old. They lived in Bostonâ€™s North
End for a few years before settling
in Everett. Ben was raised in Everett
and attended Everett High and
Northeastern University.
He went on to work as a Quality
Assurance Engineer for General
Electric where he was a dedicated
employee for twenty-two years.
Prior to retirement Ben worked at
Raytheon.
Ben met his wife, Jane Lanzo and
the couple got married on November
14, 1970. They lived in the city
for a short time, before moving
to Wilmington, where they resided
for over 45 years. Ben and Jane
raised their two daughters, Lisa
and Laura and made many wonderful
memories. Ben was a patient
and devoted father; he loved
his girls. He was even more excited
to become a â€œGrumpyâ€� to Jonathan,
Vincenzo and Rocco; they
were so special to him.
Ben especially enjoyed frequent
