Councillor Guinasso was the Dean of the Our 50th Anniversary Chris 2023 Revere City Council up until his shocking retirement in 2021. Guinasso, who served with five different Revere Mayors (Colella, Haas, Ambrosino, Rizzo and Arrigo), said of Juan, “I met Juan years ago and was impressed by his kindness. He is a true gentleman. Juan has a vision for our city and while respectful of its history is also the future of our city.” Jaramillo said, “Policy making that positively impacts the city, its working families, seniors, and young people alike can only be achieved through civility and by hearing each other out. That’s why I am so proud to receive this endorsement, because for nearly 40 years Councilor Guinasso was the voice of reason on the council, calling for us to ‘be kind to each other,’” a nod to Guinasso’s farewell speech. Jaramillo added that he hoped “to carry that legacy of policy making and consensus building for the city’s governing board.” Jaramillo has now been endorsed by a fl urry of former and current elected offi cials, among them former Mayor Brian Arrigo, School Committeewoman Stacey Rizzo, current Ward 1 City Councillor/City Council President Pro Tempore Joanne McKenna and former State Senator Joe Boncore, who represented Revere in the Massachusetts State Senate. If all the announced candidates make the ballot, there will be a preliminary election in the Councillor-at-Large race on September 19 – with the general election to happen on November 7.

Three candidates with rich and diverse backgrounds are competing for the opportunity to represent the Ward that many think of when they think of Revere. Incumbent Ira Novoselsky, who has held the seat since 2002, is facing challenges from Danielle Osterman, a social worker and the city’s Community Development Program Manager, and Universal Life Church Minister Sandro Anaya. Novoselsky lives in a multifamily home with his extended family in the house he was born in. He said he is running for another term because it’s a job he enjoys. “I like keeping my Ward beautiful,” said Novoselsky, who has insisted that his heart and soul belong to Ward 2 and the city of Revere. He lists his accomplishments as improving the Ward’s streets and sidewalks with reconstruction and repaving projects and adding crosswalks, streetlights and signs and speed bumps to slow down traffi c. He lot of good things to Revere, including solid union jobs that will allow people to aff ord a Suff olk Downs apartment and recreational opportunities. Several years ago, Novoselsky worked with a private developer to create 30 units of housing for veterans on Shirley Avenue. Overall, however, he said affordable housing is a challenge because it’s not profi table for developers. As for the new high school, NoIRA NOVOSELSKY Ward 2 City Councillor ing care of my neighbors,” he said. But on a broader level, NoDANIELLE OSTERMAN is also proud of the new playground at Garfi eld School, the renovation of Curtis Park and the public staircase from Hillside Avenue to Campbell Avenue. A dog park at Fitzhenry Square is on his to-do list. He seems most proud of the revitalization of Shirley Avenue, which has undergone a major makeover with millions of dollars in investments. “My target is Ward 2 and takvoselsky serves on the zoning and public works subcommittees. He said he advocated for a new DPW facility paid for with community investment funds. It took eight years to push that project along, but the new DPW is expected to open in September. Novoselsky is a big supporter of the Suff olk Downs development. He acknowledges that the residential component won’t do much to alleviate Revere’s acute need for aff ordable housing, but he said the project will bring a voselsky said the Wonderland site was his fi rst choice and he was unhappy the council voted to shift the project to the existing site. “I’m a sports guy and they will be losing the fi elds,” he said. He also feels the original site will be a costly problem because of its underground infrastructure. And he is concerned about the need for a new middle school, which was planned to be sited in the renovated existing high school building. “I don’t know if I’ll vote for the money for a school at the current location,” he said. Danielle Osterman is hoping to parlay her experience as a social worker and Revere’s Community Development Program Manager into a seat on the City Council. “I decided to run because I think the neighborhood needs an elected leader to work for working-class families,” she said. Osterman’s priorities are affordable housing, job opportunities, fair and reliable transportation and environmental justice. Her work with the city has involved running free tax clinics, workforce development initiatives, and expanding access to childcare. Osterman describes herself as a macro social worker, meaning she works with other organizations and state agencies to form partnerships to bring funding to the city to boost businesses and workers and improve city facilities and services. “Ward 2 is the most densely populated and diverse neighborhood in the city and I want to make sure its welcoming for everyone,” she said. Originally from Connecticut, Osterman came to the area and fi rst settled in East Boston. She moved to Revere after being priced out of her home, so she knows fi rsthand the challenge of aff ordable housing.

That package contained two kilograms of uncut cocaine packaged inside automobile parts and masked in apparent transmission fl uid in an eff ort to evade drug detection eff orts. On the morning of Tuesday, June 6, 2017, Massachusetts State Police, in cooperation with local law enforcement, simultaneously executed search warrants at fi ve locations in the communities of Everett, Melrose, Chelsea, Lynn and Revere that were suspected to be involved in the alleged drug distribution operation. Police also seized approximately three pounds of marijuana and scales and packaging materials consistent with drug distribution, two fi rearms (a fully loaded.357 Magnum, a loaded 9mm semiautomatic handgun), approximately 200 grams of a suspected cutting agent and approximately $6,000 in cash. As part of this investigation, a total of more than $40,000 in drug proceeds were seized. In addition to weapons, contraband and cash, as part of the operation, police also seized fi ve automobiles that were allegedly used for drug distribution and transportation. Law enforcement offi cials estimate that the defendants imported more than a dozen packages of suspected narcotics from September of 2016 through June 2017. The shipment of drugs that was seized on Friday, June 2, 2017, contained approximately two kilograms of uncut cocaine. Once cut for distribution, the total value of the seized cocaine would be well over $250,000. In June of 2017, Delgado-Rivera and Salado-Ayala were arrested in connection with a large-scale cocaine distribution operation involving the shipment of drugs to Massachusetts from Texas. The investigation stemmed from a tip following a motor vehicle stop in South Texas. The interstate operation involved drugs imported from Mexico into Texas and then shipped to Massachusetts. This case was investigated by the Middlesex County District Attorney’s Offi ce, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, the Massachusetts State Police Gang Unit, the Massachusetts State Police Detective Unit and the Everett Police Department. The assigned prosecutors were Assistant District Attorneys Graham Van Epps and Michael Klunder.

(Advocate photos by Tara Vocino) Acting Mayor Keefe proposes free metered parking for veterans with veterans license plate Initiative to be presented to the Traffi c Commission this September; Parking Dept. and Veterans Service Offi ce working collaboratively on proposal A cting Mayor Patrick Keefe introduced this week through the Revere Parking Department a new regulation, providing free parking in Revere for those with a veteran’s license plate. Those with veteran’s plates will be able to park for free at any on- or off - street metered City of Revere parking space, or any City of Revere-owned surface lot space requiring payment via a kiosk or using app-based payments. This does not include parking spots designated specifi cally for handicap use unless the vehicle is properly registered through the Commonwealth. Proper parking regulations will still be upheld. “Those who have served our country should not have to worry about parking tickets or parking meter fees when they visit the City of Revere,” said Acting Mayor Keefe. “I’m asking for everyone to come out to show their support for this initiative at the September 21st Traffi c Commission Meeting.” The policy applies only to parking meter fees and does not waive any other regulations governing a parking space, such as handicap requirements and fi re hydrants. All non-fee-related regulations – such as time limits, no parking restrictions, and resident parking rules – remain in eff ect. The proposal will be put forward as a request to the Traffi c Commission from the Parking Director on August 17 and would be reviewed at a public meeting on September 21. For veterans interested in how to receive a veteran’s license plate in Massachusetts, please visit www.mass.gov/service-details/ veteran-and-military-licenseplates.

He is also calling on every Mayoral candidate to sign a pledge that they will not accept similar contributions, and that they will return all development-based contributions from 2023. Morabito said, “Development in Revere has significantly impacted our communities and residents in recent years. The rapid growth and expansion in the past decade have led to various challenges, including increased housing costs, gentrifi cation, and strained infrastructure. The frustration levels among residents are palpable, as they see their neighborhoods transforming without adequate consideration for their needs and concerns.” He continued, “Revere residents must be able to trust that the development process is fair and prioritizes transparency, community input, and accountability.

Keefe L ast month the City Council responsibly approved the $262.1-million budget that I submitted earlier in June. The vote culminated a rigorous process that demonstrated how our residents are served when the city’s various executive Departments work in harmony with our legislative branch, the City Council.

This process considers staff - ing, municipal growth, and the importance of every service that municipal government provides for its people. Each Department head was then individually interrogated by members of the City Council Ways and Means Committee during a series of public hearings. The Councilors, holders of the City’s fi nancial purse strings, necessarily view budget requests with their constituents as their primary concern. The Council has the authority to reject or reduce budget line items. The objective is a budget that meets the city’s needs effi ciently and economically. The Council sliced just $10,000 (0.0000381 per cent) from my original budget request of $262,146,012, so I would say we agreed universally on the budget. What does $262.1-million fund? • Almost half, $124 million, funds the public schools and Revere’s share of Northeast Metro Tech, where 253 Revere residents are enrolled. The money includes state funding that will allow the schools to hire 97 new employees. • $31m for public safety, which will continue existing service levels and: — Add 11 new fire fighters to bring total head count to 119 — Add 5 new police officers to bring total head count to 115 — Increase inspections to enforce the City’s Short Term Rental ordinances. — Implement City-wide resident sticker program that ensures that only cars registered in the city are parking on our streets at night. • $9.2m for general government that will fund all city offi ces, including: — Financial software to integrate all city offi ces that handle payments; — An Election Department that registers some 3000 new voters annually and processes over 16,000 census forms and over 5000 early-voting ballots; — Revere 3-1-1, that handles over 36,000 constituent issues annually — Management and oversight of over 30,000 linear feet of rehabilitated sanitary sewer main drain. The list goes on: $4.7 million in public works, $2.5 million in health and human services, $1.7 million for libraries, parks and recreation, and Elder Services. And then there is health insurance for employees, casualty insurance, pension payments. It is a signifi cant fi nancial responsibility to operate a government that serves some 60,000 residents. Partnership between the Executive branch and the Legislative branch produces the most comprehensive and cost-effective way to pay for it all. I am pleased that the budget I submitted met with overwhelming support and approval by the City Council. That’s the best way to serve the City. past three months, voters are left to wonder whose interests the next Mayor will have.” Morabito said, “Together, we should set an example of principled leadership and ensure that the upcoming election truly represents the will and aspirations of the residents. I am confi dent that by standing united in our commitment to transparency and the welfare of our city, we can forge a better future for all.” The pledge calls on all refunds to take place by the July 31 campaign finance filing deadline so voters have adequate time to see who takes transparency seriously. ׉ 7cassandra://7eTuvdrAhJtwvMH4fZgzso1X6j_zzXU5SMXCqALlG-M,`̰dFז0?G1׉EDTHE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, JULY 21, 2023 Page 9 ~ OP-ED ~ Addressing the Urgent Need for Vocational Programs in Revere By Alexander Rhalimi Moreover, vocational proA s the city of Revere continues to thrive and evolve, it is crucial that we prioritize the development of vocational programs to meet the diverse needs of our community. Vocational education plays a vital role in empowering individuals, fostering economic growth, and creating a skilled workforce capable of meeting the demands of today’s job market. Revere is a vibrant city with a rich cultural tapestry, but we cannot ignore the challenges that many of our residents face in accessing quality education and sustainable employment. Vocational programs off er an alternative pathway for individuals who may not be suited for traditional academic pursuits but possess unique talents and skills. By providing hands-on training and technical expertise, these programs empower individuals to secure fulfi lling careers in industries such as healthcare, manufacturing, construction, and technology. grams serve as a catalyst for economic development within our community. They bridge the gap between educational institutions and local industries, ensuring that our workforce is equipped with the specifi c skills employers are seeking. By nurturing a pipeline of skilled workers, we can attract new businesses and encourage existing ones to expand, creating more job opportunities and fostering a prosperous local economy. In addition, vocational education promotes inclusivity and reduces income inequality. It provides individuals from disadvantaged backgrounds with the means to acquire valuable skills, enhancing their employability and enabling them to break free from the cycle of poverty. By offering vocational programs in Revere, we can ensure that every resident has a fair chance to succeed, irrespective of their socio-economic background. To make this vision a reality, collaboration among the city, educational institutions, local businesses, and community organizations is vital. We must invest in modern facilities, cutting-edge equipment, and qualified instructors to provide a comprehensive vocational curriculum. Additionally, we should forge partnerships with local industries to off er internships, apprenticeships, and job placement opportunities, ensuring that our vocational graduates seamlessly transition into the workforce. The need for vocational programs in Revere is undeniable. By embracing this form of education, we can equip our residents with the skills and knowledge needed to thrive in a competitive job market. Let us come together to invest in the future of our community and build a stronger, more inclusive Revere for all.

He was named three times the most valuable player of the New England Catholic Tournament while playing for Immaculate Conception High School in the early ‘50s. He went on to become a coach and athletic director at Immaculate Conception, Revere High and Dom Savio and Pope John XXIII High Schools. In Revere, he served as assistant recreation director, coach, umpire, referee and league administrator for more than 40 years. Hinojosa recalled that back in the ‘80s and ‘90s every summer night there were 20 men’s basketball games playing out on the Hill Park courts. “And we’re talking about A-list playDirector of Parks and Recreation Mike Hinojosa unveils the plaque that will stand in memory of “Ace” McCarrick as the McCarrick family looks on.

To put schedules like that together and to do it for 40 years was extraordinary. And he did it without any thanks.” Hinojosa remembered McCarrick as a warm-hearted leader who saw local sports as a way to bring the community together. Robert Marra, who spoke on behalf of Acting Mayor Patrick Keefe, who could not attend the dedication ceremony, said McCarrick devoted his life to people who play sports, especially basketball. “To these courts will come players of all ages and skill levels, playing this international sport while portraying Revere’s rich ethnic diversity. This is a place of growth and physical challenge. It’s the kind of place Ace would love.” Keefe said McCarrick’s life was a basketball life. He was a catalyst and advocate for Revere youth sports. He had his hand in every sports program that came out of Revere Parks and Recreation. “The games played on these courts are part of Revere’s past and future,” said Keefe through Marra. McCarrick’s son, John, also spoke at the dedication, which he called overwhelming and fantastic for him and his family. McCarrick said his father was aware of a void in the city’s sports programing and launched the fi rst girls hoop and John McCarrick and his sisters, Nancy and Susan, and their families were on hand at the dedication of the basketball courts next to Harry Della Russo Stadium to Robert “Ace” McCarrick. softball leagues. “He believed everyone deserved the chance to be part of a team and experience athletic competition,” said McCarrick, who added that his dad would be so proud of the Ace McCarrick Basketball Courts. “He sincerely loved being here watching all of you play. To my dad, basketball was much more than an opportunity to play a game. He created and supported an inclusive culture. He taught us all we have a responsibility to enhance our community. His approach was always all in,” McCarrick told the crowd. And with that, Hinojosa climbed a ladder and unveiled the new Robert “Ace” McCarrick basketball court sign and Revere grew a little tighter by celebrating and sharing the memory of a local hero. All smiles and fi lled with a son’s pride for his dad, John McCarrick recalled some memories of his dad and his love for sports and his passion to bring it to all who wanted to play. John thanked everyone for their kind words and show of support for the family and on behalf of himself and his two sisters and the entire McCarrick family a sincere thank you for this tribute to his dad.

This is important as the community spouse can have no more than $148,620 in countable assets and the nursing home spouse can only have $2,000 or less in countable assets in order to be eligible for MassHealth long-term care benefi ts.

There is no disqualifying transfer when one spouse transfers countable assets to the other spouse. However, the community spouse’s total countable assets cannot exceed $148,620, including the total cash value of all of the life insurance policies. An advanced planning strategy might be to transfer ownership of the policies to the children in order to commence the fi ve year look back period. Each of your children could also be the benefi ciary of each life insurance policy. This will serve to remove the countable asset out of the name(s) of the parent(s) when you feel confident neither of the parents will be applying for MassHealth benefits prior to the expiration of the fi ve year look back period. If the policies are paid up with no more required premiums to be paid, the life insurance policies can be transferred to an irrevocable trust as well in order to commence the fi ve year look back period. Keep in mind that since term insurance policies have no cash value, they are not countable assets for MassHealth eligibility purposes. The community spouse would certainly want to make sure that the children are named the benefi ciaries of the life insurance policy and not the spouse who is entering a nursing home who is either applying for MassHealth benefi ts or who is already on MassHealth. Another option would be for the community spouse to name his or her estate as the benefi ciary of the life insurance policies (cash value or term) and include a testamentary trust provision in his or her Will that would provide discretionary distributions of income and principal for the nursing home spouse. Assets in such a testamentary trust would not be a countable asset for MassHealth purposes and income and principal distributions would serve to provide supplemental benefi ts to the nursing home spouse that would not be provided by MassHealth or any other governmental programs. With advanced planning, you can transfer ownership of any life insurance policy to an irrevocable trust in order to remove the policy from the countable resource pool. Five years after such a transfer, the cash value in any life insurance policy will no longer be countable. If the insured were to die, the death benefi t would be paid to the Trust and the surviving spouse would be entitled to the income generated from the investment of the life insurance proceeds, but not be entitled to receive any principal. It is always good to review your life insurance policies in order to determine if any advanced planning strategies should be employed.. Joseph D.

The repairs were performed as part of one of the 39 Corrective Action Plans (CAPs) that the MBTA wrote in response to the Federal Transit Administration’s (FTA) Safety Management Inspection (SMI) Report conducted in 2022. The FTA offi cially closed the CAP in writing confi rming that the MBTA’s repairs appropriately addressed the track conditions. “Employees and managers are committed to changing the course of the MBTA with top-tobottom infrastructure improvements to improve safety and reliability,” said Transportation Secretary and CEO Gina Fiandaca. “We are pleased the FTA has officially closed the Corrective Action Plan pertaining to the Orange Line corridor known as the Tufts Curve and we continue to be sharply focused on repairing the remaining track issues in other rail corridors. “Accomplishing this work was truly a team eff ort with contributions from many groups, including our engineers, maintenance, capital transformation, and compliance experts,” said MBTA General Manager and CEO Phillip Eng. “I thank them for their dedication and hard work to address the vital track infrastructure work. While there is still work to do across the system, the completion of the Tufts Curve section of track represents an important step towards restoring the level of service our riders deserve.” The Tufts Curve repair work eliminates a major speed restriction along a 981-foot section of the track, northbound and southbound, allowing Orange Line trains to safely increase their operating speed to the full design speed in that section of the tunnel. Speed restrictions on the Tufts Curve were reduced to 10 mph in 2019. In the summer of 2022, the MBTA shut down the Orange Line for a 30-day period to complete critical track and signal upgrades. That work allowed the northbound Tufts Curve speed restriction to be raised from 10 mph to 18 mph. With the latest repairs now complete, the speed is fully restored in both directions along the curve. The work signifies an early milestone in the MBTA’s response to the FTA’s SMI Report. Key among the fi ndings in the report were the signifi cant track maintenance needs across the entire MBTA rail transit system. In these areas, trains are required to run at slower-thannormal speeds because of defi ciencies caused by track wear and tear or other issues. Speed restrictions are put in place as a safety precaution to ensure rider safety. The challenging repair work on the Tufts Curve was complex and time-consuming due to the geometry of the curved track and the extremely limited work windows primarily available at night. Work crews often faced the challenges of mobilizing and demobilizing heavy equipment, personnel, and materials within a few short hours before returning the track for the morning commute. The completion of the Tufts Curve repair and the FTA’s CAP closure, specifically Special Directive 22-04 CAP 3, is the second CAP closure in recent months.

After a long illness, my 68-year-old father has only weeks left to live. I am helping my mom fi gure out her fi nancial situation going forward, including what to do about my dad’s Social Security after he passes away but could use some help. Only Son Dear Only, I’m very sorry about the impending loss of your father. To help you and your mom understand what Social Security provides and what needs to be done when a family member dies, here are some key points you should know. Your fi rst order of business will be to make sure the Social Security Administration is notifi ed when your father dies, so his monthly benefi ts will be stopped. In most cases, the funeral home providing his burial or cremation services will do it. You’ll need to provide your dad’s Social Security number to the funeral director so they can make the report. But, if they don’t off er that service or you’re not using a funeral home, you’ll need to do it yourself by calling Social Security at 800-772-1213. When Benefi ts Stop There are a couple of things to be aware of regarding your dad’s Social Security benefi ts. For starters, you need to know that a person is due no Social Security benefi ts in the month of their death. With Social Security, each payment received represents the previous month’s benefi ts. So, if your dad were to pass away in August, the check for that month – which would be paid in September – would need to be returned if received. If the payment is made by direct deposit, you would need to contact the bank or other fi nancial institution and ask them to return any benefi ts sent after your dad’s death. Survivor Benefi ts When your father passes away, your mother may be eligible for survivor benefi ts on his record if she’s at least age 60 (50 if disabled). Here’s how that works depending on her situation. If your mom is currently receiving Social Security benefi ts based on your father’s work record, her spousal benefi t will automatically convert to survivors benefits when the government gets notice of your dad’s death. She cannot receive both spousal and survivor benefi ts at the same time. Widows are due between 71 percent (at age 60) and 100 percent (at full retirement age) of what the husband was getting before he died. If, however, your mom is eligible for retirement benefits (but hasn’t applied yet), she can apply for retirement or survivors benefi ts when her husband passes away and switch to the other (higher) benefit later. Or, if your mom is already receiving her retirement benefi ts on her own work record, she could switch to survivors benefi ts if it off ers a higher payment. She cannot, however, receive both benefi ts. To apply for survivors’ benefi ts, your mom will need to call Social Security at 800-772-1213 and schedule an appointment. She can’t do it online. You should also know that survivor benefi ts are available to former spouses and dependents who meet SSA qualifi cations – see SSA. gov/benefi ts/survivors. Also note that if your mom collects a survivor benefi t while working, and she’s under full retirement age, her benefi ts may be reduced depending on her earnings. See SSA.gov/pubs/EN-05-10069.pdf for details. Death Benefi t In addition to survivor benefi ts, Social Security will also pay a one-time payment of $255 to your mom (the surviving spouse) if she was living with your dad at the time of his death. If they were living apart, she may still receive this one-time payment if she’s collecting spousal benefi ts on his work record. In the absence of a surviving spouse, the lump-sum payment can go to a son or daughter who is eligible for benefi ts on the deceased’s work record. Send your senior questions to: Savvy Senior, P.O.

Anaya also said he is tired of seeing photos of city councillors at ribbon-cutting ceremonies and he would much rather see a city councillor delivering food to a family in need. In his work as a minister, Anaya works directly, one-on-one with people who most need help. He is part of an opioid ministry that walks the encampments checking on people and delivering Narcan when needed. and adults.

Born in East Boston, she was the daughter of Bernard J. & Mary (Maloney) Brazil. She was educated in Catholic schools in East Boston and attended Fitton Central High School. Following high school, she married her high school sweetheart, Patrick T. Panzini upon his return from serving in the U.S. Army in Korea. The couple began their family and would eventually move to Revere in 1963. Jean was a woman of strong faith and a devoted Some people may remember reading about Anaya a few years back when he was arrested and charged with impersonating a police offi cer. Anaya admits the mistake and talks openly about what he learned from the experience. He is passionate about his work as a youth counselor. He believes more resources need to be deployed before teens are arrested and locked up. “Once you send a 16-year-old to Walpole, you are hurting everyone in the state,” he said. “I don’t want to over punish them.” He said Revere is vulnerable to the same type of drugs and crime scene in Boston, and the city needs to be proactive. “Revere has let gangs and drugs into the schools,” said Anaya. “I would bring churches, chaplains, everybody together. We need a lot more than what we’re getting,” he said.

None of it is aff ordable for the people of Revere.” He feels the city doesn’t know how best to use its resources or balance its budget. “I know everything a councillor can do. I know every level of government I can pull to make this the best city it can be,” he said. He is particularly concerned about parking in Ward 2, and he said residents are getting ticketed like mad. “It’s like hunters out waiting for you. That’s what city services look like,” he said, adding that those types of things bother him in abundance. Anaya said he is open to hearing more about the options for the new high school. “They have a place at Wonderland on a rotary jammed with traffi c,” he said. “We need to look more at state and federal grants for funds,” he said.

There were no roll calls in the Senate last week. $693 MILLION FISCAL 2023 SUPPLEMENTAL BUDGET (H 3982) House 154-0, approved and sent to the Senate a $693 million fiscal 2023 supplemental budget to help close out the books on fi scal year 2023 that ended on June 30. Provisions include $180 million for fi scally strained hospitals; $226 million for 33 collective bargaining agreements that have been ratifi ed by state public employee unions; $100 million for the state’s pension fund; $40 million for a settlement of a court case related to police promotion discrimination; and $226 million for special education; and raises the current yearly cap from $10 million to $30 million for housing projects under the Housing Development Incentive Program (HDIP). “The package that is before you today covers a number of diff erent areas that require our immediate and timely attention,” said House Ways and Means Committee chair Rep. Aaron MichleAmerican Exterior and Window Corporation witz (D-Boston). “As we work towards closing the books for fi scal year 2023, these items are some of the most pressing needs the commonwealth is facing today. By addressing these defi ciencies now, we’ll be able to start the fi scal year 2024 cycle in the strongest fi scal position possible.” (A “Yes” vote is for the $693 million supplemental budget.) Rep. Jessica Giannino Yes Rep. Jeff Turco Yes HOUSING DEVELOPMENT INCENTIVE PROGRAM (H 3982) House 152-3, approved an amendment related to the Housing Development Incentive Program (HDIP). The amendment raises the current yearly cap from $10 million to $30 million – and provides for a one-time increase to $57 million to address the growing backlog of projects waiting for HDIP credits. HDIP, according to its state website, “provides Gateway Cities with a tool to develop market rate housing while increasing residential growth, expanding diversity of housing stock, supporting economic development and promoting neighborhood stabilization in designated areas.” “I have been working with Contact us for all of your home improvement projects and necessities Telephone: 617-699-1782 Toll Free: 1-888-744-1756 Email: info@americanexteriorandwindow.com       All estimates, consultations or inspections              Insured and Registered Complete Financing     MassINC, mayors and economic development directors from Gateway Cities, and housing advocates to support and improve the HDIP program since 2013,” said amendment sponsor Rep. Tony Cabral (D-New Bedford), Chair of the Gateway Cities Legislative Caucus. “Expanding the benefi ts of HDIP has long been the top priority of our caucus. We all know that Massachusetts and our Gateway Cities are facing a housing crisis that involves rising rents and home prices, and a severe shortage in housing options across all income levels.” “HDIP addresses this critical lack of middle-income housing by using a tax incentive to make developing market-rate housing in New Bedford more fi nancially viable,” continued Cabral. “It is the only housing development program specifi cally targeted to meet the fi nancial needs of housing production in Gateway Cities.” “I was proud to support the consolidated amendment, which included an increase in funding for the HDIP … [which is] is an essential tool available to Gateway Cities to produce housing supply,” said Rep. Carole Fiola (D-Fall River). “At a time when the commonwealth faces a severe housing shortage, this program is vital to getting projects in the pipeline off the ground and provide a much needed increase in housing.” “I welcome all kinds of housing production, and I have the deepest respect for our Gateway Cities colleagues who are pushing to expand the HDIP program in their communities,” said Rep. Mike Connolly (D-Cambridge) who opposed the amendment. “However, HDIP doesn’t address the concerns of my Cambridge and Somerville constituents. The question raised by this amendment is ‘How much do we want to subsidize for-profi t, private development of market-rate housing?’ Of all the ways we could spend money on housing, this is perhaps the most questionable.” “I believe that focusing funding on local housing authorities is a far more eff ective means of providing for those most in need,” said Rep. David DeCoste (R-Norwell) who also opposed the amendment. “I shared the concerns of Rep. Connolly that too much of the HDIP spending ends up enriching developers. The commonwealth would be much better off spending those funds locally through improving and expanding local housing authority available units.” (A “Yes” vote is for the amendment. A “No” vote is against it.) Rep. Jessica Giannino Yes Rep. Jeff Turco Yes ALSO UP ON BEACON HILL PROHIBIT REVOCATION OF PROFESSIONAL LICENSES (S 1997) – The State Administration and Regulatory Oversight Committee held a hearing on a bill that would repeal a current state law which creates professional licensure consequences for anyone who defaults on their student loan. Under current law, a borrower’s state-issued professional or occupational certifi cate, registration or license can be suspended, revoked or canceled if the borrower is in default on an education loan. “This procedure is nonsensical, as it strips the individual of their ability to produce an income, making it even more diffi cult to pay off those loans,” said sponsor Sen. Ryan Fattman (R-Sutton). “Forced closures due to COVID-19 have highlighted the economic hardships faced by many professionally licensed individuals such as hairdressers, massage therapists and physical therapists. These professions require close contact and have seen many restrictions since the start of the pandemic. While the Department of Education has extended grace to borrowers through forbearance temporarily, the protection is not permanent. When forbearance is not in place, these individuals do not need the threat of losing their professional license and their income source because of signifi cant economical challenges they face while trying to pay back their loan.” The House and Senate both approved a similar bill in the 20212022 session on November 21, 2022 and sent it to then-Gov. Baker who proposed an amendment to the bill on December 1. Baker’s amendment would allow the Division of Banks to consider student loan defaults in order to ensure that the division will retain the discretion it has always applied when assessing an applicant’s fi tness to provide consumer fi nancial services to prospective borrowers. “Precluding the Division of Banks from reviewing credit reports as part of its evaluation of an individual’s fi nancial responsibility for a fi nancial services license could ultimately result in harm to consumers,” said Baker in his veto message. The House and Senate had more than a month to act on the governor’s amendment but did not do so. As a result, the entire bill died on January 3, 2023, the fi nal day of the 2021-2022 session. ONLINE DRIVER’S ED (S 2261)- A proposal heard by the Transportation Committee would provide an online driver education program as an alternative to the current inperson classroom instruction for young drivers under 18. The bill would also remove the requirement to observe another student driver for six hours. “Obtaining a license is a milestone achievement but for many young people the inability to attend in-person classes due to family obligations, lack of transportation or after-school jobs, hinders their opportunity to succeed,” said sponsor Sen. Joan Lovely (D-Salem). “I fi led [the bill], so students who face barriers like these have access to online classes that allow them to meet their driver’s ed requirements.” BEACON | SEE Page 22                                         ׉ 7cassandra://QJIqgkRvbJBoO6Ha9nKKTPsrcdL4Qt5lyrh5oqjMx_M(`̰dFז0?G=׉E ITHE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, JULY 21, 2023 Page 21                     WASTE REMOVAL & BUILDING MAINTENANCE • Landscaping, Lawn Care, Mulching • Yard Waste & Rubbish Removal • Interior & Exterior Demolition (Old Decks, Fences, Pools, Sheds, etc.) • Appliance and Metal Pick-up • Construction and Estate Cleanouts • Pick-up Truck Load of Trash starting at $169 • Carpentry LICENSED & INSURED Call for FREE ESTIMATES!    AAA Service • Lockouts Trespass Towing • Roadside Service Junk Car Removal 617-387-6877 26 Garvey St., Everett MDPU 28003 ICCMC 251976                                                     We follow Social Distancing Guidelines!                       ADVOCATE Call now! 781-286-8500 advertise on the web at www.advocatenews.net       Humane Removal Service COMMONWEALTH WILDLIFE CONTROL ANIMAL & BIRD REMOVAL INCLUDING RODENTS CALL 617-285-0023                               Discount Tree Service 781-269-0914 Professional TREE REMOVAL & Cleanups 24-HOUR SERVICE Classifiedsfieds     ׉ 7cassandra://s6C8gxd1y2PXLNGYsJD0oprOaAC0e3EVvzUkNVIgJ-E4`̰dFז0?G>dFז0?G= PבCט(u׉׉ 7cassandra://nPaNkV8VHrdX-eOL3-2RCwEWyBcnOfqw2eetqkx2SCs @`)׉ 7cassandra://lM0N0WvKx1GSqvI5EKujx-u1XmMFoOEEnl7lPsV_fVc͓`J׉ 7cassandra://_pCONdHa5RLuuDDj3cmToI8iAVNHSfSlyD3bjjtNWvY'`̰׉ 7cassandra://Fg57L39gPp20vnS3aLMCxgQ9_GlibHmyfGqab6Q4HuQv͠dFז0?Gט((u׉׉ 7cassandra://xbrxOl4U5XQqcs0YqQjMHDK9O0nBp-NTq8Zf6EeNe8ou`)׉ 7cassandra://s1JM0oRqbbVUsOHN1j5uC1sZHiCqdqtmB0XWWwLf39Q͟`J׉ 7cassandra://K4lV1VgKg7wIcvyO-BPW5J3J-Hj7ggUys0QFsDXGHvQ-`̰׉ 7cassandra://lJyeJAIl8xUt6W3PV0RRPyL7bElejZF6Bdy9U5ox8tE͠dFז0?G鋓נdFז0?G閁9ׁHmailto:Info@advocatenews.netׁ ׁ ЈנdFז0?G镁9ׁH$http://Facebook.com/Advocate.news.maׁ ׁ ЈנdFז0?G锁t9ׁHhttp://mangorealtyteam.comׁ ׁ Ј׉E'Page 22 THE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, JULY 21, 2023 BEACON | FROM Page 20 MARIJUANA AND DRIVING (H 3355) – Another measure heard by the Transportation Committee would require that driver education courses include information on the impairment eff ects of marijuana. This would expand current law which requires driver education to include the dangers of drinking and driving. Supporters say that marijuana has been found in 30 percent of fatal car crashes in the Bay State. They noted that sadly many people have the false assumption that driving while under the infl uence of marijuana is relatively safe. “Driver’s education is crucial 1.

This legislation will help make the streets of the commonwealth safer for everyone.” RIGHT OF STRIKERS TO RECEIVE UNEMPLOYMENT (H 1947/S 1172) –The Labor and Workforce Development Committee heard testimony on legislation that would allow unemployment benefi ts to be paid to on-strike workers who are unemployed because of a labor stoppage. “The corporation or employer in the middle of often contentious collective bargaining can weaponize certain unemployment benefi ts to coerce action and activity that is favorable to the employer and that adversely aff ects the worker,” said Senate sponsor Sen. Paul Feeney (D-Foxborough). “We’ve seen a patchwork of decisions over the years regarding unemployment depending on who the governor is and who the secretary of labor is on whether or not unemployment benefi ts would actually be paid.” “The right to strike is an important tool available to unions but many workers are afraid of what a strike may mean to their fi nances,” said House sponsor Rep. Lindsay Sabadosa (D-Northampton). “Rules around unemployment are confusing and hard to understand. This legislation would clarify the right to benefi ts and, in doing so, would protect workers and their families.” ASIAN BODYWORK THERAPY (H 350) – A bill heard by the Committee on Consumer Protection and Professional Licensure would create a Board of Registration of Asian Bodywork Therapy to establish standards of professional and ethical conduct for these bodywork therapists; set standards for continuing education; investigate complaints; and conduct inspections. “Asian Bodywork Therapy is the treatment of the human body/ mind/spirit, including the electromagnetic or energetic field which surrounds, infuses and brings that body to life, by using pressure and/or manipulation,” according to the American Organization for Bodywork Therapies of Asia. “Asian Bodywork is based upon Chinese medical principles for assessing and evaluating the body’s energetic system. It uses traditional Asian techniques and treatment strategies to primarily aff ect and balance the energetic system for the purpose of treating the human body, emotions, mind, energy fi eld and spirit for the promotion, maintenance and restoration of health.” “This legislation is designed to enhance career pathways and streamline local regulations for east Asian healing practices, including bodywork lineages,” said sponsor Rep. David LeBoeuf (DWorcester). “The bill would create a defi ned, appropriate licensure pathway to make sure these practices are held to high standards and not misrepresented in the market. Unlike other bills that want to create an inappropriate, catch all licenses, this would be for particular traditional lineages.” QUOTABLE QUOTES – BY THE NUMBERS EDITION Cable TV business network CNBC released its annual ranking of the Top States for Doing Business, which includes both good news and bad news for Massachusetts.

HOW LONG WAS LAST WEEK’S SESSION? Beacon Hill Roll Call tracks the length of time that the House and Senate were in session each week. Many legislators say that legislative sessions are only one aspect of the Legislature’s job and that a lot of important work is done outside of the House and Senate chambers. They note that their jobs also involve committee work, research, constituent work and other matters that are important to their districts. Critics say that the Legislature does not meet regularly or long enough to debate and vote in public view on the thousands of pieces of legislation that have been fi led. They note that the infrequency and brief length of sessions are misguided and lead to irresponsible late-night sessions and a mad rush to act on dozens of bills in the days immediately preceding the end of an annual session. During the week of July 10-14, the House met for a total of eight hours and 26 minutes while the Senate met for a total of two hours and 58 minutes. Mon.
