The video, which was obtained by Boston 25 News, shows a large group of young men involved in a scuffl e in the street at Shirley and Centennial Avenues. About a minute into the video, one teen is seen breaking away from the group, raising a gun and fi ring seven times into the surrounding crowd. A 17-year-old female was shot in the leg. She was taken to Massachusetts General Hospital with what police described as a nonlife-threatening injury. Police do not believe she was involved in the dispute.

The woman was taken to the hospital with a nonlife-threatening injury, while the teen declined to be taken for medical care. An extensive police response that included the Revere Police, the Massachusetts State Police and the Boston Police cleared the crowd from the beach and began a deep search of the area. A juvenile male was arrested Sunday night for illegal possession of a fi rearm, but police are still investigating to determine if he was involved in the shootings. Police do not believe the two shootings are connected. The beach reopened on Monday, Memorial Day, with an increased police presence to assure the handful of families set up in the sand. Although Revere residents have heard about fi ghts and violence on the beach before, visitors interviewed at the scene expressed confusion, fear and anger. Those emotions were also part of the offi cial response to the shootings. “The [State Police] Association is disgusted with the violence and unlawful behavior displayed yesterday at Revere Beach,†wrote the Association on their Facebook page. “Every family within the Commonwealth deserves to be able to enjoy themselves at our parks and recreational areas without fear of violence and unlawful acts.†The association called for a united response from families, faith leaders and elected offi cials to take a stand against “unacceptable behavior.†Acting Mayor Patrick Keefe issued a statement warning that Revere will not stand for violence and disruptions on the beach. “This type of violence will not be tolerated and we will continue to work with our partners to create a family-friendly environment at America’s fi rst public beach this summer,†said Keefe.

Kelley, an attorney and realtor, outlined a MICHELLE KELLEY Candidate for Councillor-at-Large “neighborhood watch†approach to governing and said she will help neighborhoods confronted by an onslaught of irresponsible development. “It’s time that the government of Revere is restored to the people of Revere,†Kelley said. “I’ve lived here my whole life, started a business here, and watched with dismay as deals get made to the detriment of quality of life here. I’m running to be an At-Large City Councillor because Revere citizens deserve to know that their voices matter.†The proud granddaughter of immigrants, Kelley lives with her husband, David, in West Revere. Kelley believes that hard work is the path to the American dream, and that seniors have earned the right to live in their homes and in the neighborhoods they have helped build. A more responsive city government, she said, means listening to Revere residents, rather than dictating from City Arrigo, state officials announce DCR summer programs, safety measures By Barbara Taormina system. Lt. Col. James Concannon of F ormer mayor Brian Arrigo was back in Revere last week with colleagues from his new job at the Mass. Dept. of Conservation and Recreation (DCR) to tout safety programs and measures in place to keep the public safe at state public beaches and recreational sites. Arrigo’s remarks, which focused on lifeguards and freeswimming lessons, were made four days before a pair of shootings disrupted the holiday weekend at Revere Beach. “The climate crisis is bringing hotter and hotter summers and beaches are important places,†said Arrigo adding that DCR is making sure there are enough certifi ed lifeguards on duty. To that end, DCR is off ering incentives and pay raises for those interested in a lifeguard job. Candidates can apply at www. mass. gov/lifeguards. There are also free-swimming lessons for kids and anyone who doesn’t know how to swim. Details are available on the DCR website at: https://www.mass. gov/orgs/department-of-conservation-recreation “Access to outdoor space builds healthy families,†said Rebecca Tepper, chief of the Energy and Environment Bureau of the attorney general’s offi ce, who joined Arrigo on the beach. “Open space is for everyone, the entire state of Massachusetts. It’s critical to off er safe access to the water.†Other safety offi cials reviewed basic safety rules such as avoid swimming beyond one’s skill set and swim with the buddy the Mass State Police Marine Unit, spoke to remind the public about boating safety. He urged boaters to always have flares and an adequate number of safety vests on board adding that sea conditions change quickly.

State Representative Jeff rey Rosario addresses the attendees at Winthrop’s Memorial Day ceremony on Monday. T he Massachusetts Legislature is proud to join the rest of the nation to recognize and honor the sacrifi ces of our fallen men and women of the Armed Services. The Memorial Day Holiday allows each of us as Americans, and citizens of the Commonwealth, to reflect on the selflessness and courage of our fallen heroes who have given their lives in defense of our freedom. Memorial Day, formerly known as Decoration Day, was proclaimed a holiday in 1868 and became an offi cial federal holiday in 1971. Today, we use this solemn day to honor over one million men and women who have died defending our country since 1861. “Memorial Day is an opportunity to honor those who have given their lives in service to our country and their loved ones,†said Governor Maura Healey. “While we can never fully repay their sacrifi ce, we show our gratitude by ensuring that Massachusetts is a community of support for military service members, veterans and their families.†“Memorial Day solemnly reminds us of the price of freedom, achieved through the unwavering dedication and ultimate sacrifice of our servicemembers,†stated Veterans’ Services Secretary Jon Santiago. “Let us refl ect on their contributions, uphold their ideals, and lead with action. The HealeyDriscoll Administration remains steadfast in its commitment to honorably serve veterans, and we look forward to working with Chairs Velis and Cassidy to best serve our military community.†“On Memorial Day, we honor the US servicemen and women who have died protecting this country,†said House Speaker Ronald J. Mariano (D-Quincy). “We thank them and their families for their sacrifi ce, knowing that while we will never be able to repay them, we must never forget their indelible service.†“Today we remember our fallen heroes and honor their legacy by continuing to uphold the values and freedoms for which they fought,†said Representative Gerry Cassidy, who is House Chair of the Legislature’s Joint Committee on Veterans and Federal Aff airs. “We will never forget their ultimate sacrifi ce.†“The respect and admiration we give our fallen pay tribute to their memory and the lives they lived. To truly honor their lives, we must share their stories with others and ensure their memories live on even though they are gone,†said Representative Jessica Giannino (D-Revere). “By sharing their stories, we keep their memories alive and give others a glimpse of military service that aims to inspire them to create a better world, stronger nation and kinder communities.†“America and much of the world are free today because of the selfl ess sacrifi ce of the American soldier. All over the world, the graves of our soldiers serve as a reminder of the greatness of the United States and the valor and heroism of our soldiers who bravely and willingly gave all so that we may be free. On Memorial Day and all days, I join with my fellow citizens to remember the 1.1 million soldiers who died for our country. May God continue to bless them,†said Representative Jeff rey Rosario Turco (D-Winthrop). “Those who raise their hand to serve in our armed forces do so knowing full well that they may not return home. Memorial Day is a time to honor the men and women who have made that ultimate sacrifi ce in service to our nation,†said Senator John Velis, who is Senate Chair of the Legislature’s Joint Committee on Veterans and Federal Aff airs. “It is on us – as a Commonwealth – to honor their service, and to recognize the sacrifi ces of their families as well.†MALDEN HIGH SCHOOL – CLASS OF 1973 “LET IT BE†50TH REUNION SATURDAY, JUNE 24, 2023 4:30PM TO 8:30PM * DINNER BUFFET PRICE: PER PERSON $70 (CLASS MEMBERS), $65 (SPOUSE OR GUEST) WHERE: CROWNE PLAZA HOTEL 15 MIDDLESEX CANAL PARK ROAD WOBURN, MA 01801 PLEASE CONTACT JOANNE TOROSIAN AT JOTORO13@COMCAST.NET or 617-590-4210 ׉ Ú7cassandra://3AKXj5_36HW_mFkqRNEgjQRaEn1tsyHQENgwy90w7BYÍ+{Í`Ì°Í×dy!pr+ÿ`¿£j×dy!pr+ÿ`¿£iÍ P̀בC’טšÍ(Í€u׉œ”׉ Ú7cassandra://XzoF9B8L4Fkxdb4EJecXcBH9KFkfrHWVLGPW9yhQH-IίvÍ`ÍœÍ)׉ Ú7cassandra://q898GPheJ015u53yMWsKoxCY7eDsEoviYI7w1wEgvWsÍœÍ`ÍJÍà׉ Ú7cassandra://xKpT_9yHVO3TtxdrtxuOZxXX5_4gvud4Uarca68OreAÍ-­Í`Ì°Í׉ Ú7cassandra://HEBxVaIgY6Z4nrlphfxACldMeQu5HmxLXj4T8UZnmJE΄5ÍìÍ ÍÅÍñ×dy!tr+ÿ`¿£×˜šÍ(Í(Í€u׉œ”׉ Ú7cassandra://sda5pXsFxxFJp0qQJX0fxzb9SqCxGyM7uo6baB_KhRUΓžÍ`ÍœÍ)׉ Ú7cassandra://o1w9wLJEmuXr37dMVNq_YTMeusQyK-fVmUYwGt_bbM4Í•Í`ÍJÍà׉ Ú7cassandra://vvo41sSlg8va0Ugw4z5gbSXtfbokoXyNTd3iIp2VioIÍ)2Í`Ì°Í׉ Ú7cassandra://lgDwUCHOE_LZdTMiGadA7zt98Ln0ArC7SF4f8M-s4oQÎÿlÍ4äÍ ÍÅÍñ×dy!tr+ÿ`¿£‘•× ×dy!tr+ÿ`¿£ŸÍ—ÍDq9×H¶http://everettbank.com× × Ј× ×dy!tr+ÿ`¿£žÍ•ÍÍ)9×H¼mailto:Info@advocatenews.net× × Ј× ×dy!tr+ÿ`¿£ÍÍ Ì‚9×H¶http://bluecrossma.org× × Ј× ×dy!tr+ÿ`¿£œÍŒÍ¹m9×H´http://bluebikes.com× × Ј× ×dy!tr+ÿ`¿£›ÍiÍÓÌ’9×H¹http://www.shirleyave.com× × Ј׉EÚ£Page 6 THE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, JUNE 2, 2023 Save money and stay cool!

This latest report shows that’s no longer the case. Now Massachusetts residents can boast that they have a higher income tax, a higher sales tax, and higher property taxes,†noted MassFiscal Spokesperson/ Board Member Paul D. Craney. Massachusetts ranked #46 in the property tax rankings, while New Hampshire improved their score by four spots to come in at #43. As recent reports have begun to show signifi cant levels of outmigration of people and wealth from Massachusetts, the top destination for people leaving the state has consistently been New Hampshire and Florida. Florida ranks #12, according to the report. “The perception of New Hampshire’s property taxes being outrageous compared to ours has always been one of the few things counting against it as far as competitiveness.

The residents deserve nothing less than the best public safety services, no matter where they’re located in the city.†Conversations around the reconstruction of the Point of Pines Fire Station began in 2019 due to the growth of the city and the need for additional safety services for Point of Pines, Oak Island, and other Revere beach front communities. A feasibility study was conducted to determine if continued full-time use of the station could commence with improvement of the existing building or replacement of the building was necessary to meet modern fi re and EMS services. In addition to public safety and fi re accessibility, the Point of Pines Community needs a voting center and a gathering point for other community activities. “The Point of Pines fire station groundbreaking is a significant step for the Point of Pines and beachfront neighborhoods of Revere,†said Acting Mayor Keefe. “This neighborhood has desperately needed a new fi re station for well over a decade, and to see the collaboration take place to get all the right parts moving is a testament to this community. It’s exciting to see this project move forward. This is a win not only for the Point of Pines and Ward 5, but all of Revere.†Based on the results of the feasibility study, the consultants determined the modern needs for fi re and EMS services had rendered the existing building cost prohibitive for repairs and upgrades. Therefore, design services were procured for the replacement of the fi re station to include modern fi re and EMS services, a training center for the city emergency services, and provide the Point of Pines a community room for voting, meetings, and community activities. The old fi re station was then demolished and the work continued for a new site. “The residents of Revere have a right to expect suffi cient public safety services,†said Councillor John Powers, Ward 5 CouncilState Rep. Jessica Giannino recalls the patience, hard work and dedication into bringing back a new fi re station. lor. “If there’s an emergency, everyone knows the fi rst fi ve minutes are crucial.

I’ve been advocating for this for over a decade, and I’m happy Mayor Arrigo made the decision to go forward with this and provide the city with funding. The Point of Pines neighborhood, as well as Revere Beach Boulevard, Wonderland and the Riverside neighborhoods will benefi t from this upgrade in public safety services and I’m grateful for whoever has been a part of this so far.†The Alden A.

Rich Bosworth with his partner, candidate for mayor Steve Morabito. “Massachusetts is treading down a dangerous path. We’ve taken our economic competitiveness for granted and we’ve already begun to feel the negative consequences of that. Hundreds of thousands have already left over the last year or two and they’ve taken their wealth with them. The April tax shortfall we saw happened for a reason. If we’re going to stop this trend before it becomes irreversible, state leaders need to take bold action. We should be seeing them propose major, broad-based tax cuts. Unfortunately, it doesn’t even look like House and Senate leaders can put aside their diff erences enough to pass the already modest tax reform bill they proposed earlier this year,†closed Craney.

People of all ages are invited to Central Wharf on Sunday, June 4, to celebrate, learn about and take action to protect special places in our ocean. Programming will be focused on the global conservation initiative 30x30, which aims to protect 30% of land and water by the year 2030. While June 8 traditionally marks World Ocean Day, the Aquarium is hoping to draw more people to Boston’s waterfront by off ering weekend programming. Outside the Aquarium on June 4, the public can take part in a variety of free activities from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.: • “Ask a Scientist†booth – Aquarium scientists will be on Central Wharf Plaza to share their work protecting the ocean and the amazing species that live there. Each hour of the day will have a diff erent theme. • Life-size humpback whale – Representatives from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration’s Stellwagen Bank National Marine Sanctuary will join the celebration on the plaza, alongside a 43-foot humpback whale named “Salt†(weather permitting). • Marine art station – the Aquarium’s back tent will come to life with several vendors, including local artist and UMass environmental science student Martin Kalere, who will lead an ocean animal art activity to inspire budding scientifi c illustrators. • Composting activity – the Aquarium’s ClimaTeens group is leading an activity in the tent on the impacts composting can have on climate change and where participants can fi nd composting options in their own communities. • Spotlight on marine can sell out. • Special presentations – Visitors learned about right whales at the “Ask a Scientist†booth on World Ocean Day 2022. (Credit: New England Aquarium) protected areas – guests can record their thoughts on marine protected areas and learn more about how they can help make a positive impact on the ocean. This booth located in the tent will give participants an opportunity to communicate directly with their legislators. • Latino connections to the ocean and coast – the Hispanic Access Foundation will share information on the vital relationship between Latinos and our ocean. Using bilingual conservation toolkits, environmental community leaders will provide a guide detailing the impact of water and climate issues on Latino communities and highlight their own work to empower others to take action. The Aquarium is also providing programming inside from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. for guests who purchase tickets. Please note that during busy times, such as weekends, guests are strongly encouraged to reserve tickets in advance as the Aquarium Aquarium staff will deliver short presentations focused on how taking action to protect the ocean at a local level can lead to global impact. The programming will be available at the penguin exhibit, top of the Giant Ocean Tank, in the New Balance Foundation Marine Mammal Center, and at the Atlantic harbor seal habitat. • Tracking ocean animals – Aquarium educators will lead an activity focused on highly migratory species in the ocean and why it is important to protect key areas that impact their survival, such as feeding grounds and nurseries. • Scavenger hunt – inside and outside the Aquarium, visitors can participate in a scavenger hunt with three raffl e grand prizes, including admission passes, New England Aquarium Whale Watch tickets and a sea lion encounter. The Aquarium’s summer hours are 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. seven days a week. Tickets can be reserved in advance at neaq.org. ׉ Ú7cassandra://aLPHwngqt_0udSLsSdXzIO-j6Ge8PFTE7S7OWcXoPjAÍ)ÖÍ`Ì°Í×dy!pr+ÿ`¿£u׉EÚ$ìTHE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, JUNE 2, 2023 Page 17 BBB Tip: Planning your next family vacation or trip I 1.

Scammers often take advantage of consumer habits and capitalize on trending internet searches, enticing consumers with great deals to popular destinations or all-inclusive packages. While these scams persist year-round, they often increase in frequency during increased travel, such as spring break and the holiday or summer season. So far this year, U.S. consumers have reported over $265,140 lost to travel scams. Last year experienced an 18.9% increase in the median loss – totaling almost $600 compared to 2021, with a little over $500 in monetary losses. According to the Federal Trade Commission’s Consumer Sentinel Network reports, travel-related fraud cost U.S. consumers $105.1 million in losses. It accounted for 16% of all fraud reported to the agency in 2022. When planning an event or looking for a good deal for a family vacation or getaway, BBB encourages people to plan to save money, avoid scams and travel safely. Scammers often target people looking for great deals online by off ering tempting vacation packages at unrealistically low prices. One place to begin an online search is BBB.org for fi nding reputable travel agencies, agents and websites. BBB adds the following tips to help ensure an enjoyable vacation: • Plan ahead: Allow plenty of time to research hotels, fl ights and your stay area. Typically, the earlier reservations are made, the better the deals and the lower the risk of the destination being booked solid. Making reservations in advance also locks in rates and prevents higher prices later during prime spring break, peak summer or holiday travel seasons. • Avoid broad internet searches: Entering phrases like “best deals†into whichever search engine is used can sometimes bring up websites that look offi cial but are designed solely to rip people off . • Be alert for travel scams: Watch out for phone calls or letters claiming a “free trip†or websites off ering prices that appear too good to be true. It’s easy to extend questionable off ers like these, but most leave hopeful travelers in limbo – and out of money. Access https://www. bbb.org/article/scams/16913bbb-tip-5-top-vacation-scamsto-watch-when-making-summer-travel-plans • Do your homework: Ask family and friends to recommend a travel agent or website and visit BBB.org for free business profi les. Research the business and read customer reviews about any rentals under consideration. • Get trip details in writing: Before making a fi nal payment, get all the trip details in writing. This should include the total cost, restrictions, cancellation penalties and names of the airlines and hotels. Also, review and keep a copy of the airline’s and hotel’s cancellation and refund policies, as well as the cancellation policies of the travel agency or booking site used. • Consider travel insurance: Travel insurance covers things like trip cancellations or medical emergencies. There are different levels of coverage based on what type of plan purchased. Ask many questions, and always read the fi ne print to see what’s covered and what’s not. • Pay with a credit card: Paying with a credit card provides additional protection if something should go wrong with the travel reservation. • Planning to travel internationally? Check to see if any advisories aff ect Canada, and the U.S. Travel Association for any issues that may impact the trip. No matter when or where you are traveling, take extra precautions: • Wait to post on social media. It’s fun to post adventures with friends and family but wait until getting back from the trip. Photos and social media posts of the family having a great time also let thieves know the house is empty. • Check your home insurance. If your home will be unattended while away, make sure you know your responsibilities under your home insurance policy. Some policies do not cover damage if nobody checks on your home for a while. • Share a copy of the itinerary with a family member or close friend. Include the contact information of someone joining you on your trip. • Take a map. People rely heavily on smartphones and GPS. Consider having an atlas or hard copy map just in case of technical diffi culties. • Check the weather conditions where you will be traveling and pack appropriate supplies and clothing. • Avoid traveling alone. Use the buddy system and stick with the group. • Use a hotel safe to store extra cash and keep valuables under lock and key.

Think twice before paying Watch out for phony medical bills and debt collectors I f you get an unexpected message saying you owe money for medical services, think twice before you make a payment. The Better Business Bureau (BBB) Scam Tracker has received reports about phony medical bills and collections departments. How this scam works: You receive a letter or a call informing you that you owe money on a medical bill. If you follow up, the “billing department†will insist that you need to pay immediately. If you don’t, you will allegedly face consequences, such as fi nes, damage to your credit score or even jail time. Eager to settle your debts, you provide your credit or debit card number. But before you pay, the scammer will ask you to confi rm your name, address and other sensitive information, which might include your Social Security or bank account number. This scam has several versions. In some cases, the bills and medical services are entirely fabricated. For example, one person told BBB Scam Tracker that they “received a medical bill for $500 for Covid testing that supposedly occurred in VA in January. I did a quick look into the business website and the site wasn’t even registered/live until May. I was also out of state (in CA) when it claims I got tested.†No matter what pretense the scam uses, giving scammers your personal details puts you at risk for identity theft. Plus, any money you pay them might be lost for good.

If someone claims you owe money, ask for the details. Any legitimate collections company should be ~ HELP WANTED ~ * PIZZA MAKERS * COUNTER HELP * DELIVERY DRIVERS Please call: (617) 259-4482 or in-person: 340 Central St., Saugus able to tell you to whom you owe money and when you received services. Consider it a red fl ag if they aren’t forthcoming with this information. In any case, it’s a good idea to hang up and contact your doctor’s offi ce, hospital billing department or insurance company directly and fi nd out if you really do owe money. • Look up the customer service number. Do an internet search for the phone number that contacted you or the customer service number on the letter you received. The number should be registered to an offi cial business associated with your doctor or hospital. If it isn’t, consider it a red fl ag. Keep an eye out for reports from others who identify the number as part of a scam.

My 66-year-old husband was recently diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease and will need ongoing physical therapy to help keep him moving. Worried Wife Dear Worried, Yes, Medicare does indeed pay for physical therapy along with occupational and speech therapy too, if he needs it, as long as it’s prescribed by his doctor. You’ll also be happy to know that Medicare has no limits on how much it will pay for therapy services, but there is an annual coverage threshold you should be aware of. Here’s what you should know. Outpatient Therapy To get Medicare Part B – which covers outpatient care – to help cover your husband’s physical therapy, it must be considered medically necessary and will need to be ordered by his doctor. The same holds true for occupational and speech therapy. He can get these services as an outpatient at a number of places like a doctor or therapist offi ce; in a hospital outpatient department; at an outpatient rehabilitation facility; at skilled nursing facilities if he is being treated as an outpatient; and at home through a therapist connected with a home health agency when he is ineligible for Medicare’s home health benefi t. For outpatient therapy, Medicare will pay 80 percent of the Medicare-approved amount after you meet your Part B deductible ($226 in 2023). You will be responsible for the remaining 20 percent unless you have supplemental insurance. But be aware that if his therapy costs reach $2,230 in a calendar year (2023), Medicare will require his provider to confi rm that his therapy is still medically necessary. Medicare used to set annual limits on what it would pay for outpatient therapeutic services, but the cap was eliminated a few years back. You also need to know that treatment recommended by a physical therapy provider but not ordered by a doctor is not covered. In this situation, the therapist is required to give your husband a written notice, called an Advance Benefi ciary Notice of Noncoverage or ABN, that Medicare may not pay for the service. If he chooses to proceed with the therapy, he is agreeing to pay in full. Inpatient Therapy If your husband happens to need physical therapy at an inpatient rehabilitation facility like at a skilled nursing facility or at your home after a hospitalization lasting at least three days, Medicare Part A – which provides hospital coverage – will pick up the tab. To be eligible, his doctor will need to certify that he has a medical condition that requires rehabilitation, continued medical supervision, and coordinated care that comes from his doctors and therapists working together. Whether you incur out-ofpocket costs such as deductibles and coinsurance, and how much they are, will depend on the setting for the treatment and how long it lasts. For more information on inpatient therapy outof-pocket costs see Medicare. gov/coverage/inpatient-rehabilitation-care. Medicare Advantage Coverage If your husband is enrolled in a Medicare Advantage plan (like an HMO or PPO), these plans must cover everything that’s included in original Medicare Part A and Part B coverage. However, some Advantage plans may require a person to use services from physical therapy practices within an agreed network. If he has an Advantage plan, you’ll need to contact his specifi c plan before selecting a physical therapy provider to confi rm they’re within the network. More Questions?

As part of the process, the commission is continuing to seek public input on what residents would like to see at the arts center and the city as a whole. The commission has been holding community meetings with the help of the Metropolitan Area Planning Council to ensure the plans to bolster the local arts community are inclusive. For those who cannot attend meetings, there is a survey on the commission’s webpage at www. revere.org/boards-and-commissions/public-arts-commission. At their recent meeting in May, the commission turned its attention to fundraising. The Beachmont Fire Station will need extensive renovations before it can open its doors to performances and exhibits. Commission Member Brian Harkins proposed holding a silent online auction that would allow local artists to off er lessons, performances and works of art to bidders. “That would be a great opportunity for local artists to get their work out there,†said Elle Baker, the city’s open space and environmental planner, who has been working with the commission. Harkins also felt it was important to engage the business community in the drive to create the arts center and to hold public events to capture community interest. The commission intends to work with the city to see what resources would be available for such eff orts. New Commission Member Asha Waterhouse, who brings a wealth of public arts experience from his former hometown, Quincy, said “all art starts in the neighborhoods.†While other commission members agreed, they questioned if building a Revere arts community diff ers from the mission of the Public Arts Commission, which was initially launched to promote public art installations, such as murals. The commission had a mural and an artist lined up, but the available space wasn’t adequate. The search is on for new designs and spaces. O f Revere, MA. Passed away peacefully surrounded by his loving children after a brief illness on May 27, 2023 at the age of 88. Born in Apice, a Province of Benevento, Italy on August 29, 1934 to the late Pompeo and Francesca Colarusso. Carmine married the love of his life in 1960, immigrated to America in 1966 and settled in Revere. He was employed at Forest Hills Cemetery in Jamaica Plain as a groundskeeper and greenhouse attendant for over 33 years. Beloved husband of the late Antonietta (Beatrice) for over 30 years. Loving father of Pompeo, Pellegrino “Pell†and Olina Colarusso of Revere and Frank Colarusso of Ashland. Loving and cherished Nonno (grandfather) of Bradley Colarusso. Dear brother of the late Cristina Beatrice and her husband Filippo of Revere, and Antonio Colarusso & his wife Angelina of Reggio Emilia, Italy. Dear brother-in-law of Carmine Masiello and his late wife Nicolina, Maria Assunta Licciardi and her late husband Frank, Elena Coccimiglio and her late husband Nicola all of Revere, Francesco DiVito and his late wife Angelina of Saugus and the late Michelina Monaco and her husband Pasquale, Antonetta Beatrice, Antonio Beatrice and Angelo Beatrice of Italy. Dear Godfather of the late Lidia Annese of England. Also survived by many loving nieces, nephews, great-nieces, great-nephews, cousins and dear friends. Carmine was a caring and loving husband, father and nonno. A devoted family man, there is no question that he was happiest when surrounded by family. Carmine cherished his wife, children and grandson above all else. Aff ectionate and caring, his love for family knew no bounds, and his selfl ess and generous nature shone through the way he lived his life, always putting others fi rst. Carmine prized and believed in his children and grandson beyond words, never judging and always supporting them with his quiet and unwavering strength, and a reminder to “be number oneâ€. He had an endless AT-LARGE | FROM Page 3 responsible about how we conceive, design, and pay for it. We aren’t doing future generations any favors if we aren’t thinking strategically about how to move forward, and doing so with taxpayers in mind.†In holding city leaders to account, Kelley helped engineer policy changes during the debate over the allowance of the biolab at Suff olk Downs. She said she wants to bring the same approach, that of a concerned citizen with a “neighborhood watch†attitude, across city government. A smarter approach to development, and ensuring that developers adhere to the zoning code written by the people of Revere, will help preserve the city’s neighborhoods. Kelley also believes that Revere’s seniors deserve more respectful treatment from city government, including common courtesy from city offi cials and at public meetings. Revere should be a place where people of all generations and backgrounds can feel comfortable and pursue their dreams. The fi rst person in her family to graduate college, Kelley attended Revere Public Schools and worked her way through both college and law school, receiving degrees from Salem State University and New England School of Law. She is admitted to practice in Massachusetts state and federal courts. Kelley said her political ideology is “common sense,†a value she fi nds lacking in today’s politics. “Everyone is so busy paying attention to who’s ‘winning’ on TV or on social media that we’ve lost sight of right and wrong,†she said. “I believe extreme points of view on any issue sense of humor, and a smile that could light a room. He was always ready with a joke, trying to make others smile and lift spirits regardless of any personal pain. A humble man, he was grateful for the simple pleasures in life, enjoying and sharing Italian traditions of making wine, Sunday gravy and cooking for loved ones whenever he could. An avid gardener with a remarkable green thumb, he loved to be outdoors, spending as much time as he could cultivating his vegetable and fl ower gardens. There was rarely a plant he could not revive with family and friends always coming to him for advice on how to save a favorite plant. He would walk a mile to come help and support family or friend if asked, never turning away from a request for help. Carmine was a spiritual man, a devoted parishioner of St. Anthony’s Church, and watched Catholic TV mass every day when unable to attend in person. There are no words to express this incredible loss. He will be dearly missed by all who loved him. A Visitation was held in the Paul Buonfi glio & Sons ~ Bruno Funeral Home, 128 Revere Street, Revere on Thursday, June 1, 2023. A Funeral Service will be held Friday, June 2, 2023 at 10:00 AM followed by a Funeral Mass in St. Anthony of Padua Parish, 250 Revere Street, Revere at 11:00 am. Relatives and friends are kindly invited. Interment in Holy Cross Mausoleum. lead to division and shut down lines of communication.†Kelley said her campaign will work with Massachusetts-based CK Strategies as General Consultant, a fi rm that has worked for former U.S. Secretary of Labor Martin J.

All Senate roll calls are on proposed amendments to the Senate version of a $55.9 billion fi scal 2024 state budget. There were no roll call votes in the House last week. Of the 1,049 amendments fi led by senators, only 31 came to a roll call vote. Many others were simply approved or rejected one at a time on voice votes, some with debate and some without debate. To move things along even faster, the Senate also did its usual “bundling†of many amendments. Instead of acting on each amendment one at a time, hundreds of the proposed amendments are bundled and put into two piles—one pile that will be approved and the other that will be rejected, without a roll call, on voice votes where it is impossible to tell which way a senator votes. Senate President Karen Spilka, or the senator who is fi lling in for her at the podium, orchestrates the approval and rejection of the bundled amendments with a simple: “All those in favor say ‘aye,’ those opposed say ‘no.’ The ayes have it and the amendments are approved.†Or: “All those in favor say ‘aye,’ those opposed say ‘no.’ The no’s have it and the amendments are rejected.†Senators don’t actually vote yes or no, and, in fact, they don’t say a word. The outcome was predetermined earlier behind closed doors. SENATE APPROVES $55.9 BILLION FISCAL 2024 BUDGET (S 3) Senate 40-0, approved a $55.9 billion fi scal 2024 state budget after adding an estimated $82.2 million in spending during four days of debate. The House has already approved a diff erent version and a House-Senate conference committee will eventually craft a plan that will be presented to the House and Senate for consideration and sent to the governor. “I am so proud that this chamber voted resoundingly for a transformative budget built on the simple American Exterior and Window Corporation principle that our success as a commonwealth is tied to the success of every single person who calls Massachusetts home,†said Senate President Karen Spilka (D-Ashland). “Massachusetts will be competitive so long as people from all over the world can come here to fulfi ll their dreams – whether by going back to school, advancing their career, starting a business or fi nding affordable housing and childcare to raise a family. At a time when our world-class educational institutions are more needed now than ever, this budget adds a new chapter in Massachusetts’ storied tradition of making education accessible to all through our Student Opportunity Plan.†“In my fi ve years as chair of Ways and Means, I’ve never experienced a smoother or more democratic process than the fi scal year 2024 budget the Senate just approved here today,†said Sen. Mike Rodrigues (D-Westport). “The chamber focused on an overarching goal to meet, and in many cases exceed, the pressing needs of our communities, and the commonwealth at large. This budget is a forward-thinking and responsive proposal that greatly facilitates our long-term economic health and expands access to opportunities to reinvigorate and reinvest in our workforce economy, lessen the wealthincome divide and empower our communities as we build an inclusive post-pandemic future that equitably benefi ts all.

They would also be required to provide a college or university with a valid social security number or taxpayer identifi cation number, an affi davit indicating they applied for citizenship or legal permanent residence, or plan to do so once eligible, and proof they registered for selective service if applicable. “Extending in-state tuition to our undocumented students is not only a matter of fairness but a crucial step towards achieving educational equity and eff ectively addressing our workforce shortages,†said Sen. Pavel Pavano (D-Lawrence). “It is imperative that we tap into the potential of all our citizens to maintain our state’s competitive edge in the economy. Now is the time to rally behind this long-overdue policy change and guarantee that every aspiring student, irrespective of their immigration status, will actively contribute to the growth and prosperity of our commonwealth.†“In-state tuition for undocumented immigrants is an example of one of the upside-down priorities found in the Senate budget,†said Sen. Ryan Fattman (R-Sutton) who sponsored the amendment to remove the lower tuition provision. “Prioritizing the needs of our citizens of the commonwealth should be the focus of the Senate, including providing tax relief to legal residents, adequately funding our schools including help with surging special education costs and investing in our small businesses and infrastructure. Our residents are leaving the state because it’s expensive and our elected leaders have the wrong priorities.†“The Senate’s fiscal year 2024 budget focuses on expanding access to higher education—not restricting it,†said Sen. Jo Comerford (D-Northampton). “The data is clear: Students who attend Massachusetts public colleges and universities remain in the commonwealth after graduation, where they contribute to our economy and society. We must not obstruct any student seeking to fulfi ll their academic, personal and professional potential.†Some senators said this new policy should not be rushed through the Legislature in the form of a budget amendment but should be the subject of a separate bill that has to go through the entire legislative process including public hearings. (Please note what a “Yes†and “No†vote mean. The amendment was on striking the section that provides lower rates. Therfore, a “Yes†vote is for striking the section that off ers the lower tuition and therefore is against the lower tuition. A “No†vote is against striking the section and favors the lower tuition.) Sen. Lydia Edwards No TAX REVENUE FROM MILLIONAIRE’S TAX (S 3) Senate 5-34, rejected an amendment that would remove a section in the budget that exempts tax revenue generated from the recently voter-approved Millionaire Tax from counting toward the allowable state tax revenue limitations, under Chapter 62F, which provides that whenever revenue collections in a fi scal year exceed an annual cap tied to wage and salary growth, the excess is returned to taxpayers. Last year, $3 billion in refunds were returned to taxpayers when the law was triggered for just the second time since its passage in 1986. The revenue from the Millionaire Tax is deposited into the new Education and Transportation Stabilization Fund. “It’s refreshing to see some lawmakers put the interests of the taxpayers at the forefront,†said Paul Craney, a spokesperson for the Mass Fiscal Alliance which supported the amendment to remove the section. “Senate Republicans came to today’s debate well prepared. They passionately spoke out in favor of their ideas to protect the taxpayers and preserve the very popular taxpayer protection voter approved law known as 62F. Senate Democrats want to break the will of the voters by excluding the new millionaire’s tax revenue from the total calculation for rebates back to the taxpayers from 62F. That goes against the will of the voters as the law is written and today’s debate by Senate Republicans made that point very clearly.†Sen. Bruce Tarr (R-Gloucester), the sponsor of the amendment, did not respond to repeated requests by Beacon Hill Roll Call asking him to comment on his amendment. Amendment opponents said the amendment will put the new revenue in jeopardy and argued this new revenue is earmarked for education and transportation and must be protected and treated diff erently than other tax revenue. Senate Ways and Means Chair Sen. Mike Rodrigues (D-Westport) did not respond to repeated requests by Beacon Hill Roll Call asking him to comment on his opposition to the amendment. (Please note what a “Yes†and “No†vote mean. The amendment was on striking the section that exempts tax revenue generated from the recently voter-approved Millionaire Tax from counting toward the allowable state tax revenue limitations. A “Yes†vote is for the amendment that favors tax revenue generated from the recently voter-approved Millionaire Tax counting toward the allowable state tax revenue limitations. A “No†vote is against the amendment and supports exempting the revenue from the allowable state tax revenue limitations.) Sen. Lydia Edwards No $575 MILLION RESERVE FUND FOR TAX RELIEF (S 3) Senate 4-35, rejected an amendment that would create a reserve fund of $575 million to fund future tax relief. Amendment supporters said this will ensure that a minimum of $575 million is set aside and protected until the House, Senate and governor in the coming weeks can agree on the amount of money that will be returned to taxpayers this year. They noted several proposals with various amounts of tax relief are currently on the table and eventually one will be approved and this reserve fund creation will ensure the money is there for the tax cuts. Sen. Bruce Tarr (R-Gloucester), the sponsor of the amendment, did not respond to repeated requests by Beacon Hill Roll Call asking him to comment on his amendment. Amendment opponents said there is already a section in the budget that sets this money aside, a statement that amendment supporters disagree with and argued that the budget does not prevent the $575 million from being spent on something other than tax relief.

(A “Yes†vote is for the $575 reserve fund. A “No†vote is against it.) Sen. Lydia Edwards No $500,000 FOR FREE FEMININE HYGIENE PRODUCTS (S 3) Senate 39-0, approved an amendment providing $500,000 to The “Free Period Project†to provide free feminine hygiene products to students and low-income workers across the state. This program currently serves only the South Shore and the additional funding would expand it statewide. “It’s become apparent that Free Period’s work is needed throughout Massachusetts,†said sponsor Sen. Patrick O’Conner (R-Weymouth). “In a needs assessment conducted in 300 schools throughout the commonwealth, it was found that 92 percent of schools have inadequate funding for feminine hygiene products and many have no funding at all. Over 60 percent of schools rely on school nurses, teachers or parent teacher organizations to step up and provide these products. It’s time for the state to step up.†(A “Yes†vote is for the $500,000.) Sen. Lydia Edwards Yes $200,000 FOR YOUTH SUICIDE PREVENTION PROGRAM (S 3) Senate 39-0, approved an amendment providing $200,000 for The NAN Project to provide mental health awareness and suicide prevention programming in schools and communities. According to its website, the NAN Project is dedicated to the memory and legacy of Nancy Cavanaugh, – an inspiring, caring young woman who took her life because she could not fi nd the services, support or hope needed to defeat the pain of anxiety, depression, and OCD “I am deeply proud my amendment supporting The NAN Project was adopted so this crucial organization can continue its important work amplifying the mental health needs of students across our commonwealth,†said sponsor Sen. Joan Lovely (D-Salem). (A “Yes†vote is for the $200,000.) Sen. Lydia Edwards Yes $200,000 FOR WOMEN VETERANS’ OUTREACH (S 3) Senate 39-0, approved an amendment providing $200,000 for hiring additional staff for women veterans’ outreach, centralizing the administration of services and expanding transitional support for women veterans returning to the state. “While women are the fastest growing population of veterans, veteran organizations and care have historically been geared towards men,†said sponsor Sen. John Velis (D-Westfi eld). “An amendment of mine to the fi scal 2022 budget commissioned the study that outlined these discrepancies. This follow-up amendment authorizes the necessary funding to implement the study’s recommendations, including expanding outreach services to identify women veterans and inform them of the benefi ts they qualify for.†(A “Yes†vote is for the $200,000.) Sen. Lydia Edwards Yes ALSO UP ON BEACON HILL COURT RULES AGAINST EQUITY THEFT – The United States Supreme Court ruled that cities and towns that foreclose on properties on which the owner owes back property taxes, cannot keep all of the profi ts when the city or town sells the property at auction. Current Massachusetts law allows this practice. Since 2019, Sen. Mark Montigny (D-New Bedford) has sponsored a bill at the state level that would have outlawed the practice in the Bay State. He applauded the court’s decision. “Permitting municipal officials and private, profi t-driven companies to prey upon the misfortunes of homeowners, robbing them of every cent of their equity, is unconscionable,†said Montigny. “Homeowners must be provided with enhanced protections so that their COMMERCIAL & RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY SALES & RENTALS Happy Spring!

Pushing out senior citizens, people with disabilities, and those facing tremendous personal challenges is atrocious. Local officials who have allowed [this] must immediately reverse their decision and provide restitution to anyone who suff ered from this predatory practice. Frankly, those offi cials are not worthy to serve the public. Prospectively, I hope my bill to protect homeowners will be expedited through the legislative process and signed by the governor so that we can put an end to this shameless profi teering and bring Massachusetts in line with constitutional requirements.†REVIVE “HAPPY HOURS†(S 157) – The Consumer Protection and Professional Licensure Committee held a hearing on legislation that would allow cities and towns to permit restaurants that are licensed to serve alcohol to off er discounted prices on alcoholic beverages during dates and time periods specifi ed by the city or town. The measure prohibits any alcohol from being discounted after 10 p.m. Under current law, passed in 1984, restaurants have been prohibited from holding “happy hours†during which some alcoholic drinks are free or the price is reduced. The 1984 law was sparked by the September 1983 death of Kathleen Barry, a 20-year-old from Weymouth, when Barry and her friend won free pitchers of beer at a Braintree Ground Round. After leaving the bar, Barry and a friend climbed on top of a drunk friend’s car for a ride around a Braintree parking lot and Barry fell under the car and was dragged 50 feet to her death. “Much has changed in Massachusetts since a happy hour ban was enacted in 1984,†said sponsor Sen. Julian Cyr (D-Truro). “The drinking age has long been settled at 21, stiff penalties have been established to deter drunk driving and ride hailing apps have become a popular way to safely get around on a night out. While alcohol-related off enses decline across the country and little compelling evidence exists linking happy hour with higher rates of alcohol-related DUIs, Massachusetts remains the last state in the country to have an absolute ban on happy hour. In the aftermath of COVID-19 and advent of remote work, happy hour is a tool that can help revitalize main streets and downtowns struggling for foot traffi c. This legislation empowers municipalities to determine if they want to allow local restaurants to off er happy hour specials and decide if it is the right choice for their community.†COLLEGE STUDENTS’ TRANDenise Matarazzo 617-953-3023 617-294-1041 SCRIPTS (H 1277) – The Higher Education Committee held a hearing on a measure that would prohibit public and private colleges from withholding a student’s entire academic transcript if the student owes the school money for any loan payments, fi nes, fees, tuition or other expenses. The measure would allow schools to withhold from the transcript only any academic credits and grades for any specifi c course for which that student’s tuition and mandatory course fees are not paid in full. Supporters said currently schools can withhold a student’s entire transcript even though it might be just one course for which the student has not paid. They said this means that these students cannot use any credits to transfer to more aff ordable institutions or to obtain employment. “Higher Education institutions are supposed to be vehicles of opportunity, economic mobility and promises of a better future,†said sponsor Rep. David LeBoeuf (D-Worcester). “Continuing to foster adverse practices that disproportionally penalize low-income students go against these principles, and the principles of the commonwealth. It is our responsibility to make sure those who pursue higher education are not saddled with debt or denied advancement opportunities because of limited fi nancial resources. This bill begins to address this issue by eliminating a counterintuitive practice that has no place in Massachusetts.†HOW LONG WAS LAST WEEK’S SESSION? Beacon Hill Roll Call tracks the length of time that the House and enate 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 May 22-26, the House met for a total of 20 minutes and the Senate met for a total of 34 hours and 25 minutes. Mon. May 22 House 11:00 a.m. to 11:08 a.m. Senate 11:17 a.m. to 5:16 p.m. Tues. May 23 No House session Senate 10:08 a.m. to 7:53 p.m. Wed. May 24 No House session Senate 10:09 a.m. to 7:49 p.m. Thurs.

Students stripped it down to nothing but its shell, designed the new machine and then rebuilt the machine using state-of-the-art industrial automation controls, displays and electronics. Students completely replaced the game’s game control system and wrote software for it themselves. They also designed and built every electrical control in the machine, as well as new audio and video systems, while also changing the theme of the game. “I had the kids use all the shop technology that they’ve learned during their time here,†said Robotics & Automation Technology Department Head Brian Caven, who oversaw the year-long project. “I used the pinball machine to teach all of the technologies we learn, including electrical, electronics, software, electromechanical and wiring. All of those are pieces that they learn in the shop, and they were able to put those lessons together into constructing this pinball machine.†Robotics & Automation Technology seniors also collaborated with students in other trades at Northeast Metro Tech, relying on Auto-Body students to paint the pinball machine’s body, Design and Visual Arts students to help with graphics, STEM Department students to help with laser-cutting some plastic parts for the new machine and Metal Fabrication students, who welded and created new metal parts for the machine. Caven had students approach the pinball machine job as a team project, working together to learn how engineering projects actually work in private industry while also learning team building, communication and even confl ict-resolution skills. “We handled this as a group project. I acted as the engineering manager and every student acted as an engineer on the team with specifi c responsibilities,†Caven said. “Everything we did was done to teach them how a design project moves from conception to fi nal production.†Seniors who participated in the project are John Antonucci, of Wakefi eld, Gabriel Fontes, of Malden, Caleb Galdamez, of Saugus, Carla Garcia Colon, of Chelsea, Escander Habda, of Malden, Joseph Pannese, of Revere, Jaiden Santos, of Chelsea, Kai Sweetland, of Malden, Angel Umana Hernandez, of Chelsea, Scott Upton, of Reading, and Claire Wilson, of North Reading. “It has been an amazing experience to watch and learn how a team works,†said Kai Sweetland. “Everybody had something that made it all come together and it was a great time!†“One of the most important things that I learned while working on this project is patience and communication. While this was a group project, many of us had to work on individual parts and wait for others to fi nish,†said Carla Garcia Colon. “Patience and communication allowed us to make more progress on the project because whenever someone was doing something that interrupted the work of someone else, we would fi nd something else to make progress on. Without this skill, we would have been much further behind on the project.†“This was an extraordinary project that required seniors to use all of the skills that they have learned in their years in the Robotics and Automation Technology program,†said Superintendent DiBarri. “The final product is stunning, and we look forward to fi nding a place for the refurbished pinball machine here at Northeast Metro Tech.†Where the machine will end up remains an open question, but it will be displayed in September at an annual pinball show called Pintastic in Marlborough.
