(Advocate photo by Tara Vocino) Mayor’s longevity pay stems from former city charter By Tara Vocino ouncillor-at-Large Michael Marchese once again questioned Mayor Carlo DeMaria’s $180,000 longevity pay during the City Council meeting at City Hall on Monday evening. “How did it go up to $40,000 a year?” Marchese asked. “Someone interpreted it – I’m not blaming anyone.” Marchese said he wasn’t in SINCE 1921 Messinger Insurance Agency 475 Broadway Everett, MA 02149 Phone: 617-387-2700 Fax: 617-387-7753 NEW COMPETITIVE AUTO RATES AND BENEFITS AVAILABLE  ACCIDENT FORGIVENESS  DISAPPEARING COLLISION DEDUCTIBLE  11% DISCOUNT WITH SUPPORTING POLICY  10% COMBINED PAY IN FULL DISCOUNT AND GREEN DISCOUNT  10% GOOD STUDENT DISCOUNT Celebrating 100 years of excellence!

Chief Financial Offi cer Eric Demas said internal and external counsel reviewed the ordinance as it was explained – which he felt was ambiguous at best. “The person receiving the benefi t gets the benefi t of the doubt,” Demas said. Longevity is defi ned as an annual payment. Demas said there were two diff erent ordinances proposed, one of which was referred to Ways and Means. He added that it was included in previous budgets, including as a note and as a line item. “I realize everyone was trying to be nice and give him a bump,” Marchese said. “I didn’t realize they were going to give him a mountain.” Ward 2 Councillor Stephanie Martins, who said it’s a shame they only found out now, asked Demas if the council can demand the money to be returned. Demas replied that they’d have to seek legal opinion since he isn’t an attorney. “The night it was passed there wasn’t any discussion,” Demas said.

Barber, Rep. Vargas, and Rep. Ciccolo. (Photos are Courtesy MAPC). B OSTON – May 5, 2022– Flanked by Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley, MA-07, and scores of public officials and stakeholders from across Greater Boston this week, the Metropolitan Area Planning Council (MAPC) officially unveiled a land use and public policy blueprint designed to put the region on a course toward a more equitable, sustainable and prosperous future. Developed through grassroots research, analysis, and public outreach over the past three years, MetroCommon 2050: Shaping our Region Together details five “Action Areas” including Growth & Mobility, Homes for Everyone, Equity of Wealth & Health, Dynamic & Representative Government, and Climate Change Adaptation & Resiliency – and outlines bold, achievable goals for the 101 cities and towns within the MAPC’s planning territory, along with useful research and tools to ensure success. The Action Areas were informed by four core values Greater Boston residents and workers identified as crucial for the region’s success: equity, resilience, prosperity, and stewardship. “We are charting an inclusive vision of the future of the region, and we do that together,” said Congresswoman Pressley in her keynote remarks at the launch event, noting the importance of regional planning in improving outcomes for residents across the socio-economic spectrum. “These last two years have showed us that our destinies are tied, and we don’t improve outcomes by doing what we’ve always done. We can, and we must, legislate equity, healing, and justice.” MAPC Executive Director Marc Draisen dedicated the plan to victims of the COVID-19 pandemic. “MetroCommon 2050 launches at a time when we Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley. face unprecedented challenges fueled by a devastating pandemic, increased political polarization, an urgent climate crisis, and a recognition of the impact racism has had on our past and present,” said Draisen. This plan acknowledges how these global, national, regional and local events affect us all, and looks to the future of Greater Boston with hope, knowing that, together, this region has the power and ability to bring about the change we desire.” Draisen and other MAPC staff introduced MetroCommon 2050 at an event Thursday morning hosted by the John F. Kennedy Library in Columbia Point, and attended by over 200 elected and appointed Greater Boston officials, non-profit leaders, project stakeholders, community non-profit partners and others. In addition to interactive booths and exhibits matching Action Area themes, the event featured a moderated panel led by MAPC Deputy Executive Director of Public Affairs & Advocacy Elizabeth Weyant, featuring State Representatives Christine Barber, Andy Vargas, and Michelle Ciccolo. MAPC based the new regional roadmap on a robust information gathering process that included tours of the region, and interviews as well as focus groups with residents, planners, and municipal and state MAPC LAUNCHES | SEE PAGE 8 ׉ 7cassandra://laigZYyEYczMlB8x6Zfb0mk0VS-kT8z58WbBSCeE7pI0p`̰b}v G db}v G d PבCט(u׉׉ 7cassandra://gkr5lBFU5qET4XaO64kAd4-Rn1LKYq6mCDbqLqjNjXs`)׉ 7cassandra://mMyAYd0MrOPk_GPEVtd5bcRZxCgCgSHqQ94fVtkvkagͭ!`J׉ 7cassandra://uocctlcHzHu5J9LLtCrFsZTjNddwqWrWTUNkEEMz_iE0p`̰׉ 7cassandra://ad2Z3FsVKztgaRwyK49vZtqzGQwXbMqtSbXiPX4biOMt͠b}v G eNט((u׉׉ 7cassandra://kQQi6Xvyt2gZIHKBNxNyjKBni0plHwJVZjwLharQBXE"`)׉ 7cassandra://OCdqVF3si-rNETUP7FyimOGUq84bQ8Pv10tzeoOXmkI͘`J׉ 7cassandra://yuO9DXFhGsCCTEUGsXD34bdRHfVvlsyjwWNOPmvd4TI*`̰׉ 7cassandra://XKGWRnmmGqCFjuATB_gi2MOCC2IOgFSxyakUwo1s1A8{'j͠b}v G eOנb}v G e]̎9ׁHhttp://Billytserevere.comׁ ׁ Јנb}v G e\9ׁHhttp://www.order.mealkeyway.comׁ ׁ Јנb}v G e[L9ׁHhttp://www.Billytserevere.comׁ ׁ Јנb}v G eZ"9ׁH$http://FACEBOOK.COM/ADVOCATE.NEWS.MAׁ ׁ Ј׉ENPage 4 THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, MAy 13, 2022 Pioneer Charter School of Science I Ranks Among the Top Massachusetts High Schools, According to U.S. News & World Report E VERETT - Pioneer Charter School of Science I (PCSS I), based in Everett, was ranked among the state’s best high schools by U.S. News and World Report in its annual ‘Best High Schools’ ranking. The school ranked 15th in Massachusetts among 378 public high schools. “A great high school educates all students from different social and economic backgrounds, exposing them to challenging coursework on the path to graduation,” U.S. News stated in its ranking. “The highest ranked public schools…are those whose students demonstrated outstanding outcomes above expectations in math, reading and science state assessments, earned qualifying scores in an array of college-level exams, and graduated in high proportions.” PCSS I, located in Everett, was one of eight charter public schools that ranked among the Top 20 high schools in Massachusetts, including its sister school in Saugus - PCSS II. “Our team of students, teachers and families work extremely hard all year round, and it’s gratifying to see their commitment recognized in this way,” said Sanela Jonuz, PCSS I’s Principal. “We are proud to be accomplishing our mission to prepare our students for higher education and career success.” The rankings were based on six categories: College Readiness, College Curriculum Breadth, Graduation Rate, State Assessment Proficiency, State Assessment Performance (compared with what U.S. News predicted for a school with its demographic characteristics in its state) and Underserved Student Performance. PCSS I received 97 out of a possible 100 points in the rankings. PCSS I’s graduation rate also played a large role in its state ranking - the school graduated 94% of its class. Graduates have gone on to some of the most prestigious colleges in the country, including Columbia, MIT, Dartmouth, Brown, Cornell, Williams, and Northwestern.

(The prospect of brain swelling caused by dehydration might be daunting for even the heartiest among us.) This week’s article is about L how exercise and fitness are safer than the alternatives. A cynical person might see this week’s installment as an attempt to scare people into fitness after possibly scaring them away last week. But there is data to support the idea that fitness is safer than the alternatives. (Meaning that you should be scared, and that we can help.) One relatively easy way to reduce the risk of weight-related maladies (diabetes, hypertension, arthritis) is by losing ~10 pounds. While Type 2 diabetes is often considered the “easier” diabetes, it can get worse over time, and become the (more serious) MAPC LAUNCHES | FROM PAGE 3 LIKE US ON FACEBOOK ADVOCATE NEWSPAPER FACEBOOK.COM/ADVOCATE.NEWS.MA leaders. That feedback - including over 600 survey responses - painted a portrait of what those who live and work in Metropolitan Boston want for the region by 2050. The plan acknowledges challenges such as historic exclusion, oppression, and unfairness that continue today, and outlines ways to overcome them while grasping untapped possibilities to ensure that the region protects its natural resources, is prepared for climate change, invests in downtowns Type 1. Left unchecked, diabetes can lead to blindness, loss of appendages and/or kidney failure (which are unpleasant enough to make the consequences of working out too hard seem easier to deal with). According to Web MD, losing ~10 pounds greatly reduces the risk of contracting diabetes, and makes existing diabetes easier to manage. According to Web MD, that same ~10 pounds of weight loss takes ~40 pounds of pressure off your joints, increasing your mobility. (As a bonus, increased mobility makes it easier to get/ remain in shape.) One way to lose that weight is to reduce the saturated fats (red meat, fried food) in your diet, replacing it with healthier protein (whey, fish, leaner meats) and fiber from vegetables (beans, peas, barley). Reducing cholesterol and weight can reduce your blood pressure and risk of a heart attack. It can also help you to sleep better. and neighborhoods, and provides opportunities for all residents and workers to thrive. Grouped within the five Action Areas, MetroCommon 2050 identifies ten general goals for the region, along with specific strategies and proposed policies for achieving them. The goals include: Getting Around the Region: traveling around Metro Boston is safe, affordable, convenient, and enjoyable. Homes for All: All residents of Metro Boston have places to live that meet their needs, and that they can afford. A Climate Resilient Region: Metro Boston is prepared for – and resilient to – the impacts of climate change. A Net Zero Carbon Region: the Metro Boston region is highly energy efficient and has reduced its greenhouse gas emissions to net zero. Dynamic and Representative Governments: Local governments and regional agencies have the capacity and resources to deliver the services and supports our residents deserve, and to maintain and invest in our built and natural environments. A Healthy Environment: Greater Boston’s air, water, land, and other natural resources are clean and protected – for people and for the rest of the ecosystem. Sam Amado Working to lose 10 pounds can reduce your risks. Do not let this scare you. Let it inspire you. Be safe. Be sensible. And, remember, the world might be a scary place. But being healthier means fewer risks, and makes it easier to run away when you need to. Email Sam at: samamado@ weighbetteru.com Economic Security: Everyone has the financial resources to meet their needs and to live fulfilling lives. Economic Prosperity: Greater Boston’s economy benefits all in the region. Healthy and Safe Neighborhoods: People are safe, healthy, and connected to one another.

We’re excited to provide an opportunity to get outside, experience the full benefits of biking, and focus on self-care and wholebody wellness.” Riders can take advantage of free Adventure Passes on May 1 by downloading the Bluebikes app on a mobile device and selecting “Adventure Pass.” Riders can use the following codes to access free Adventure Passes on each ensuing Sunday: • May 8: BlueMiles08 • May 15: BlueMiles15 • May 22: BlueMiles22 • May 29: BlueMiles29 The initiative also includes “Take a ride, Give a ride,” which provides all riders who take a Bluebikes trip on May 1 with a free Adventure Pass to share with a friend, sponsored by the state’s largest health plan. “Take a Ride, Give a Ride” aims to reinforce the importance of supporting and reaching out to those who may be struggling with their mental health. Additionally, individuals will be able to track how many miles they ride over the course of the month in the Bluebikes app and anyone who rides over 25 miles between May 1-31 will be entered into a raffle, sponsored by Blue Cross, to win one of ten free annual memberships.

DEA Recognizes First Ever National Fentanyl Awareness Day W ASHINGTON – In an effort to save lives, DEA is proud to join “Song for Charlie” and many of our valued public health, non-profit, and law enforcement partners in recognizing the first ever National Fentanyl Awareness Day. This day is an effort to educate individuals around the dangerous threat that fentanyl poses to the safety, health, and national security of the American people. To mark National Fentanyl Awareness Day, DEA released a video announcement from DEA Administrator Anne Milgram stressing the dangers of fentanyl and the need for urgent action. “Fentanyl is killing Americans at unprecedented rates,” said Milgram. “On this first-ever National Fentanyl Awareness Day, please help save lives by making sure you talk with your friends and family about the dangers of this deadly drug.” Fentanyl is a synthetic opioid that is approximately 50 times more potent than heroin and 100 times more potent than morphine. It is inexpensive, widely available, and highly addictive. Drug traffickers are increasingly mixing fentanyl with other illicit drugs—in powder and pill form—to drive addiction and create repeat customers. Many people who are overdosing and dying don’t even know that they are taking fentanyl. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that in the United States, nearly 107,000 people died as the result of a drug overdose in the 12-month period ending November 2021. Sixty-six percent of overdose deaths involved synthetic opioids such as fentanyl. DEA has created a special exhibit for its museum, The Faces of Fentanyl, to commemorate the lives lost from fentanyl poisoning. If you would like to submit a photo of a loved one lost to fentanyl, please submit their name and photo to fentanylawareness@dea. gov, or post a photo and their name to social media using the hashtag #NationalFentanylAwarenessDay.

In addition to community demonstration of support, a motorcade of flatbed trucks topped with damaged cars will circle the area. The Collision Course event is set for Wednesday, May 18 at 10:30 a.m. – rain or shine. The event is led by The Alliance of Automotive Service Providers of Massachusetts (AASP/MA). Scheduled speakers include State Representative James K. Hawkins, D-2nd Bristol; Evangelos “Lucky” Papageorg, Executive Director, AASP/MA; Kevin Gallerani, President of AASP/MA and owner of Cape Auto Collision Center, Plymouth, MA; Jack Lamborghini, co-owner of Total Care Accident Repair in Raynham, MA; Guy Glodis, Former State Senator, D-2nd Worcester who led Financial Services Committee as a legislator; and Dennise Caratazzola, concerned consumer from Bridgewater. The group is protesting the unsustainably low reimbursement rates that were artificially set by insurance companies. In a statement, State Senator Michael O. Moore, D-2nd Worcester noted, “The current Labor Rate for the auto body industry in unfair and unsustainable. I will continue to advocate for a legislative change that increases the labor rate to make the industry viable and consumer’s safe.” Brian Bernard, co-owner of Total Care Accident Repair in Raynham, an independent collision center owner, said the current $40-per-hour reimbursement rate is the lowest in the nation and falls far short of covering the body shop owners’ labor, equipment, training and repair costs. As a result, unfortunately, many consumers have to pay the difference out of pocket, he said. Bernard said the labor reimbursement rates paid by Massachusetts auto insurers have stayed the same for 11 years. The rates only moved $10 in nearly 34 years. Since 1988 the labor rate has increased $10 while the Consumer Price Index (CPI) has increased 137.7% and insurance premiums have increased 254%. Tax Foundation Reports MA is the 5th Highest State for Property Taxes B OSTON – A new Tax Foundation repor t shows Massachusetts has the fifth highest property tax rate in the country, with our state’s ranking not improving over the last few years. According to their report, Massachusetts has been ranked as the fifth highest in 2022, 2021 and 2019. In 2020, Massachusetts was the sixth highest in the country. Many of the New England states rank in the top ten most expensive states in the country, but unlike those other New England states, Massachusetts is considering raising its income tax rate for high income earners and some small businesses at this November’s election through a ballot question. If the ballot question passes, these high income earners and some small businesses are likely to flee our state, further depriving Massachusetts of these revenues and increasing the property tax burden on those who remain. The Tax Foundation’s report notes that property taxes matter to businesses for a wide variety of reasons and pay a significant part of the overall property taxes collected by states. “According to the Tax Foundation, Massachusetts property owners pay among the highest property taxes in the entire country. Today’s report comes after April’s state tax collections numbers show that Massachusetts collected nearly 80% more in taxes this April than last April,” stated Paul Diego Craney, spokesman for the Massachusetts Fiscal Alliance. “Making things even worse, Speaker Ron Mariano and Senate President Karen Spilka have a ballot question this November to raise income taxes by 80% for some high-income earners and small businesses. If their 80% tax hike passes, many affluent and small businesses will flee out state, leaving the middle class to make up for the loss of tax collections, including property taxes,” continued Craney. “It seems like the Speaker and Senate President are driving the state economy right into a brick wall but they do not seem to care. Eventually, the high taxes, high spending, and high inflation will catch up to them but it will come at the expense of the middle class who will be expected to pay for these reckless decisions by our State House leaders,” concluded Craney.

DeCRISTOFARO REGISTER OF PROBATE May 13, 2022 Baker-Polito Administration Launches Summer Learning Programs, Commits Nearly $60 Million in Funding for Schools and Community Partners Across the Commonwealth B OSTON – The Baker-Polito Administration today announced nearly $60 million in state and federal funding available to school districts and community organizations to offer summer learning and recreational programs designed to help students grow academically and socially. Students at every grade level will have opportunities to take part in a mix of academic and enrichment programs offered at schools, after-school and early education programs and recreation sites. Last summer, approximately 46,000 students across the Commonwealth participated in a summer learning program supported by the Baker-Polito Administration. The administration will once again support schools and community organizations that offer programs including Acceleration Academies, Summer Learning Partnerships, Summer Step Up and Summer Acceleration to College. “Students across the Commonwealth were significantly impacted by the disruption to their learning and their social and emotional well-being caused by COVID-19, and it is imperative that we continue to provide the resources and support they need to thrive,” said Governor Charlie Baker. “We are pleased to be able to again provide this funding, and we are grateful to the community and educational partners statewide who will take advantage of these opportunities and greatly benefit the Commonwealth’s children.” “By providing funding to support summer programs, we hope to engage more kids when school is out of session with fun, educational and enriching programs,” said Lt. Governor Karyn Polito. “These engaging programs run by caring professionals will ensure that the young people in their communities have access to the tools they need to recover both academically and emotionally.” Remote and hybrid learning during the COVID-19 crisis led to learning loss for many students, and impacted emotional and mental health. After schools reopened across the country last year, national research showed that on average, K-12 students were five months behind in mathematics and four months behind in reading by the end of the 202021 school year. In Massachusetts, re - sults from the most recent statewide MCAS tests administered in the spring of 2021 show that many more students had gaps in their knowledge of math and, to a lesser extent, English language arts, compared to students in the same grades before the COVID-19 pandemic; and fewer students met or exceeded grade level expectations. A recent MassINC survey of parents in Massachusetts found about 22 percent believe their children are behind grade level, compared to 13 percent who thought the same prior to the public health crisis. More than one-third of parents with younger students who are behind grade level said they are planning to send their children to summer programs. “When we launched summer programming last year, we knew it would be a multi-year effort to help many students regain ground both academically and socially,” said Education Secretary James Peyser. “We are committed to continuing this work by partnering with communities to engage young people in innovative and productive ways.” “We are once again providing students access to academics as well as enrichment opportunities to help them grow and keep connected to school this summer,” said Elementary and Secondary Education Commissioner Jeffrey C. Riley. “I hope all districts across the Commonwealth take advantage of these programs and the funding the Administration has made available.” “Summer Step up will provide our young learners with the critical academic and social-emotional supports to prepare them for a successful transition to back to school in the fall,” said Acting Commissioner Amy Kershaw. “We are pleased to be able to support this innovative collaboration with our schools and community partners for a second year to help address the impact of COVID-19 on our young students and their families.” The following are some of the programs to be funded: Acceleration Academies The Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) will help school districts launch Acceleration Academies, which allow students to learn and build skills by working intensively on one subject in small, hands-on learning environments with excellent teachers. Students benefit from small class sizes, longer uninterrupted instructional blocks, individualized attention, project-based lessons, and teacher flexibility for learning time. The administration will commit up to $20 million in grants for districts to operate Acceleration Academies using federal Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Response (ESSER) discretionary funds. This is a multi-year program that the department anticipates will impact more than 23,000 students statewide each year. Acceleration Academies will include: • Early Literacy Academies for incoming kindergarteners, rising 1st and 2nd graders; and • Math Acceleration Academies for rising 3rd and 4th graders, as well as 8th and 10th graders. Summer Learning Partnerships DESE will also work with school districts to develop or expand summer learning opportunities that address both the academic and social-emotional impacts of COVID-19 on students, with $8 million in grants. These programs will engage students with enrichment and recreation activities that motivate them to build relationships in a welcoming environment that uses the knowledge, strengths, and assets of students, families, and educators in the community. Summer Step Up The Department of Early Education and Care (EEC) will support school districts to offer Summer Step Up, a program aimed at giving extra support to young learners entering school in the fall. Young children will be able to take part in summer learning opportunities developed in conjunction with community partners to help prepare them for school. Summer Step Up is an opportunity to engage young learners and accelerate learnPROGRAMS | SEE PAGE 19 ׉ 7cassandra://HadDQ9SwSUm9DmAb2BAHZH7A6xm70ExYZL-47IVV8A8(V`̰b}v G e5׉E$aTHE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRiDAy, MAy 13, 2022 Page 19 PROGRAMS | FROM PAGE 18 ing while smoothing the transition to school for young children to provide them a stronger foundation for academic success. The administration will commit up to $8 million to this program. Summer Acceleration to College High school graduates from the Class of 2022 will be able to participate in Summer Acceleration to College, a program launched last summer that provides recent graduates access to credit-bearing math and English courses at no cost to them as they prepare for college. Fifteen community colleges in the Commonwealth will participate in this program, with approximately $500,000 awarded in funding. In addition to these programs, the Baker-Polito Administration will also: • Help camps and community organizations expand educational enrichment as part of their existing summer programs by making $12 million in funding available. • Provide early literacy tutoring grants this summer and during the 2022-23 school year, funded at $2 million. • Launch a new K-8 Math Acceleration program to help teachers increase student learning over the summer and throughout the school year, funded at $6 million. • Expand the Biggest Winner Math Challenge to serve approximately 2,500 gifted math students, funded at approximately $2.5 million. • Offer college courses over the summer for rising high school juniors and seniors who are enrolled in approved Early College programs, funded at approximately $1 million. AG’s Office issues warning about scams targeting friends and family of incarcerated people A ttorney General Maura Healey is partnering with the Massachusetts Department of Correction (DOC), Prisoners’ Legal Services (PLS) and the Massachusetts Sheriffs’ Association (MSA) to advise residents with incarcerated loved ones to be wary of scams that offer to make or improve connections between those in correctional facilities and their friends and families for a fee. These scams target the families and friends of people who are currently incarcerated, offering deceptive or fake services that are often advertised online, over social media and in print media. In some cases, scammers purportedly offer supplemental calling plans, including false promises of “unlimited minutes,” to connect with incarcerated people. However, Massachusetts does not currently offer unlimited calling plans in any jail, House of Correction or prison. Ultimately, these scams fail to provide promised services, even after taking hundreds of dollars from consumers. “Scammers will use any opportunity to seek financial gain, including taking advantage of family and friends looking to connect with their incarcerated loved ones,” said Healey. “We are working with community advocates and our partners in law enforcement to ensure our residents know how to protect themselves from fraud and deceptive services and that they can report any instances of these scams to my office. It is important that incarcerated individuals are able to connect with the people closest to them without their loved ones becoming victims of fraud.” “The Sheriffs stand united that one of our highest priorities is keeping incarcerated individuals connected to family members, friends and outside support systems,” said Suffolk County Sheriff/MSA President Steven Tompkins. “We want to warn citizens that these are most definitely scams and urge them to take the proper precautions. Taking advantage of people who are already dealing with the stress and emotional toll of having a loved one who is incarcerated is especially repugnant. Protecting our incarcerated individuals and their families from those who would prey on them must remain a top priority.” “The Department of Correction recognizes the importance of connected relationships of family and friends with their loved ones in our custody,” said the Department of Corrections’ Commissioner Carol Mici. “This collaboration with the Attorney General’s office will help to ensure this connection continues while thwarting opportunities for fraud.” “It is too often the case that families who are already financially burdened and disproportionately people of color are also preyed upon by people seeking to take advantage of the painful experience of being separated from a loved one who is incarcerated,” said Prisoners’ Legal Services Executive Director Elizabeth Matos. “We appreciate the Attorney General’s efforts to ensure that families and communities are not being scammed in this way.” The Massachusetts Attorney General’s Office, DOC, PLS and MSA are encouraging residents to take the following steps to protect themselves from fraud and targeted scams: • Be cautious before posting about incarcerated loved ones on social media, as scammers looking for targets might try scanning social media activity. • Before signing up for a service, check the business’s website to make sure they offer reputable and legitimate services and to see if they have negative reviews. • Confirm that you can contact the business/organization via phone, email, live chat or through their website. • Look out for all fees that will apply and check the business’s refund policy. • Avoid offers that come from social media and, in particular, from questionable businesses or organizations that operate solely on Facebook or other social media websites. • Avoid unsolicited offers from sources you don’t trust or know, including texts and phone calls, unless you can confirm that the product or service is legitimate. • If you decide to make a purchase, pay with a credit card, PayPal or other method that offers purchase protections. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has taken recent action against these scams, stopping the operators of a scheme that preyed on families and friends of incarcerated individuals who rely on phone calls to stay in touch with their incarcerated loved ones – particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic when in-person visitations were suspended. A settlement was also reached by the FTC and the Florida Attorney General’s Office with a company that scammed prisoners and their families by charging them for magazine subscriptions that either showed up late or not at all. Any consumers who feel they may have been scammed by these deceptive practices are encouraged to file a complaint online with the Attorney General’s Office. • Offer the 21st Century Community Learning Centers (CCLC) Summer Enhancement Grant internship program to support high school and college students interested in careers in education, funded at $500,000.

There were no roll calls in the House last week. Technical audio problems plagued the Senate live broadcast near the end of the session. All Senate sessions are broadcast live on the Legislature’s website at www.malegislature.gov After the Senate adjourned and the online video broadcast ended, the audio could still be heard online. Sen. Will Brownsberger (D-Belmont) who presided over the Senate debate, conducted several “mic checks” and could be heard asking a technician, “It doesn’t sound like I’m underwater anymore?” All Senate roll calls were on amendments to the bill allowing undocumented/illegal immigrants to apply for a Massachusetts standard driver’s license. Sen. Bruce Tarr (R-Gloucester), the sponsor of several failed amendments to the bill, did not respond to repeated requests from Beacon Hill Roll Call to comment on why he fi led the amendments. Sens. Brendan Crighton (D-Lynn) and Adam Gomez (D-Springfi eld), two key backers of the bill, did not respond to repeated requests from Beacon Hill Roll Call to comment on why they opposed all of Tarr’s amendments. UNDOCUMENTED/ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS CAN GET DRIVER’S LICENSE (S 2851) Senate 32-8, approved a bill allowing undocumented/illegal immigrants to apply for a Massachusetts standard driver’s license. The House has approved a diff erent version of the bill and the Senate version now goes to the House for consideration. The bills are similar and both branches approved their version by veto-proof margins. Once the two branches agree on a fi nal version, the measure goes to Gov. Charlie Baker. The legislation requires an applicant “without legal presence” in the United State to provide the RMV with a foreign passport and at least one of fi ve other documents: a driver’s license from another state, a foreign driver’s license, a birth certifi cate, a foreign national identifi cation card or a marriage certifi cate or divorce decree from any U.S. state. “The [bill] makes our roads safer and, just as importantly, makes the lives of more than 185,000 Massachusetts immigrants without status easier by allowing them to earn a standard driver’s license,” said Sen. Brendan Crighton (D-Lynn). “In the absence of a robust regional public transportation system, it is impossible for many Massachusetts residents to get through their day without the use of a car. No one should fear detention or deportation over essential everyday tasks such as getting to work, school, doctor’s appointments and grocery stores. It is time for Massachusetts to join the 16 other states who have passed this common-sense legislation.” “It was important to me to listen to my local police chiefs, many [of whom] indicated to me that they had concerns,” said Sen. Anne Gobi (D-Spencer), one of only five of the Senate’s 37 Democrats to vote against the bill. “As well-meaning as the legislation is, I do believe there will be unintended negative consequences. For one, the legislation will task the RMV with verifying documentation. You do not have to look very far to see problems the RMV continues to have, including the Brockton RMV improperly awarding 2,100 drivers licenses without a road test.” “We are a nation of immigrants, and our commonwealth continues to be profoundly and positively shaped by immigrants from all over the world,” said Senate President Karen Spilka (D-Ashland). “They deserve to be able to safely get to work and school, care for their families and participate in the lives of their communities. I am thrilled that the Senate has moved forward with this proposal which will support families, improve public safety and be good for our economy.” “State-issued drivers licenses are a primary form of identification in our society and they carry real-world consequences and responsibilities,’’ said GOP Minority Leader Sen. Bruce Tarr who led the opposition to the measure. “We proposed safeguards to ensure that a privilege to drive does not, under any circumstance, become misused for any purposes including access to voting in elections or anything else that could put the public at risk. The 9/11 Commission said that all layers of government should secure state-issued identifi cation documents describing it as a national security and law enforcement imperative to combat identity fraud and illegal immigration.” (A “Yes” vote is for the bill. A “No” vote is against it). Sen. Sal DiDomenico Yes MUST HAVE DISTINGUISHING FEATURES (S 2851) Senate 8-31, rejected an amendment that would require the license to have a background color and other features which will distinguish it from all other licenses issued by the RMV. “[This] would have helped address issues raised by a number of local police chiefs in the district I represent who I consulted with prior to yesterday’s vote,” said Sen. Marc Pacheco (D-Taunton). “Based on the input I received, the possible corruption of our state licensing process was fl agged as a signifi cant concern.” Amendment opponents said law enforcement offi cers BEACON | SEE PAGE 23 Sa nir Sa a y Senior Seni by Jim Miller How Medicare Covers Alzheimer’s Disease Dear Savvy Senior, What exactly does Medicare cover when it comes to Alzheimer’s disease? My husband was recently diagnosed with early-stage Alzheimer’s, and we would like to find out what’s covered and what isn’t. Planning Ahead Dear Planning, I’m very sorry to hear about your husband’s diagnosis, but you’ll be happy to know that most medical costs to treat benefi ciaries with Alzheimer’s disease are covered by Medicare. Unfortunately, longterm custodial care costs that most patients eventually need are not. Here’s a breakdown of what Medicare does and doesn’t cover when it comes to Alzheimer’s disease, along with some tips that can help you plan ahead. Medical care: For the most part, ongoing medical care to diagnose and treat Alzheimer’s disease is covered by Medicare Part B, including visits to primary care doctors and specialists, lab tests, speech and occupational therapy, home health care and outpatient counseling services. Medicare pays 80 percent of these costs, and you will be responsible for the remaining 20 percent after you’ve met your annual $233 Part B deductible. Sixty days of inpatient hospital care is also covered under Medicare Part A after you pay a $1,556 deductible. Beyond 60 days, a daily coinsurance fee is added. Medications: Most Alzheimer’s medications are covered under Medicare’s Part D prescription drug plans, but coverage varies so check his plan’s formulary. The only exception is Aduhelm, the controversial new drug that is estimated to cost $28,200 per year. Medicare Part B will only cover this drug if your husband is enrolled in a clinical trial. Long-term custodial care: It’s important to understand that original Medicare does not cover long-term custodial care. This includes nursing home care, the costs of assisted living facilities and adult day care. Medicare does, however, pay for some shorter-term nursing home care, but only up to 100 days following a three-day inpatient hospital stay. Hiring home help for bathing, toileting and dressing (this is known as custodial care) is not covered by Medicare either unless your husband is also receiving skilled-nursing care or physical or occupational therapy. To help with these costs, you may want to look into getting a long-term care insurance policy or short-term care plan (see aaltci.org/stc) if possible, or if your income and assets are very limited, you may qualify for Medicaid. To investigate your fi nancial options for long-term care, go to PayingForSeniorCare.com. Hospice: In the fi nal stages of the disease, Medicare Part A covers nearly all aspects of hospice care, including doctor services, nursing care, drugs, medical equipment and supplies, physical and occupational therapy, homemaker services, counseling and respite care. To qualify, a doctor must certify that a patient has six months or less to live. Other Insurance and Assistance If your husband is enrolled in original Medicare and he doesn’t have a supplemental insurance (Medigap) policy, you should consider getting him one. A Medigap plan will help pay for things that aren’t covered by Medicare like copayments, coinsurance and deductibles. To search for plans in your area, go to Medicare.gov/plan-compare and click on “Medigap policy only.” If you’re enrolled in a Medicare Advantage plan (like an HMO or PPO), his plan must provide him at least the same coverage as original Medicare does. Some advantage plans may also off er additional coverage for home care services. If you can’t aff ord your Medicare out-of-pocket costs or need help with medication expenses, there are Medicare Savings Programs and the Extra Help program that provide fi nancial assistance for medications. To learn more, see Medicare.gov/your-medicarecosts/get-help-paying-costs. You can also get help through your State Health Insurance Assistance Program (see ShipHelp.org or call 877839-2675), which provides free Medicare and long-term care counseling.

They said the amendment could create an opportunity for stigma and allow someone to discriminate against its holder. (A “Yes” vote is for the amendment. A “No” vote is against it). Sen. Sal DiDomenico No NOT VALID FOR ID (S 2851) Senate 7-32, rejected an amendment that would require that the license include the words “Not valid for identification” prominently in bold text.” Amendment supporters said that the license is meant to operate a motor vehicle and it should be made clear that it is not valid for identification purposes. Amendment opponents said the amendment is unnecessary and will only lead to and open up opportunities to discriminate. (A “Yes” vote is for the amendment. A “No” vote is against it). Sen. Sal DiDomenico No REQUIRE RMV TO PROVIDE INFORMATION TO CITY AND TOWN CLERKS (S 2851) Senate 10-29, rejected an amendment that would require the RMV to provide information on the holder of a Massachusetts driver’s license to any city or town clerk requesting information to verify the identity and eligibility of any individual using a Massachusetts license to vote or to register to vote. Amendment supporters said this would ensure that anyone who receives a Massachusetts license who is not eligible to vote is not accidentally registered to vote. “The bill does very little to prevent the issue of an undocumented citizen using their driver’s license to register to vote,” said Sen. Ryan Fattman (R-Sutton). “This poses a challenge to the integrity of the process to register to vote, because city and town clerks will not be able to determine whether or not an individual is eligible to register. My amendment would add strength to the security of this process by ensuring that Massachusetts is in compliance with the law that enables U.S. citizens to vote.” Amendment opponents said getting a driver’s license has nothing to do with a person’s ability to vote. They noted there are many non-citizens, such as green card recipients, who have earned a license but are not eligible to vote. (A “Yes” vote is for the amendment. A “No” vote is against it). Sen. Sal DiDomenico No PROMISE NOT TO USE LICENSE TO REGISTER TO VOTE OR FOR ID (S 2851) Senate 7-31, rejected an amendment to a section of the bill that requires the applicant to attest, under the pains and penalties of perjury, that their license to operate has not been suspended or revoked in another state or country. The amendment would also require the applicant to attest that he or she will not use his or her license for the purpose of registering to vote, voting or for identification. Amendment supporters said this is simply another safeguard to ensure that the license will not be misused with the intent to vote illegally. Amendment opponents said there are sufficient safeguards in the bill to ensure there will not be improper use of this license. (A “Yes” vote is for the amendment. A “No” 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 latenight 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 May 2-6, the House met for a total of 45 minutes and the Senate met for a total of five hours and 32 minutes. Mon.

Michael had a quick wit and a keen sense of humor. He often served as a toastmaster or emcee. Michael especially enjoyed moderating Everett’s Friendly Sons of St. Patrick galas where attendees sat on the edge of their seats waiting for his next punchline. He served as President of the Jaycees and was an accomplished vocalist for numerous bands. Michael’s infl uence extended well beyond Everett’s borders having served as a trusted advisor in both the Governor Weld and the Governor Cellucci administrations. Michael was a friend to all and a mentor to many. His passing is a loss not only to family and friends, but to the entire Everett community.
