Student report puts focus
on high school issues
By Adam Swift
I
n the wake of students walking
out of Revere High School
last week in support of sexual
assault victims, School Committee
student representative
Elni Lopez de Jesus presented
the committee with an overview
of issues she has heard
from students at the school.
While she touched upon the
walkout, Lopez also covered a
number of topics of concern to
her fellow students. In addition,
Lopez spoke to and highlighted
the responses she received on
the concerns from Revere High
School Principal Dr. John Perella.
Lopez said Perella addressed
students during the walkout,
and in a later email, he promised
to invite student class representatives,
athletes and club
leaders to work on building and
designing forums in which students
and teachers can share
and listen to each otherâ€™s perspectives
and experiences. â€œDr.
Perella is working with the Superintendent
of Schools to
bring in additional outside support
and free up class time in
the spring to do the work necessary
to heal and restore the
community,â€ said Lopez.
Other issues raised by students
include a new grading
system that some students said
has had a huge impact on their
anxiety and depression. Lopez
said Perella told her that there
would be adjustments to the
grading system.
Students also said they appreciated
the fl ex block period they
had during the pandemic while
taking part in remote learning.
Lopez said it is something the
school is looking into. â€œDr. Perella
mentioned that the challenge
is that he has to get agreement
from the School Committee and
how the school was in the process
of putting it in place, but
COVID messed it up,â€ said Lopez.
In a similar vein, Lopez said
students have stated that they
would like to see more conversation-based,
rather than lecture-based,
classes.
There were also issues that
Lopez said students raised
about special education students
and programs and how
the students are integrated
into the school as a whole, and
about overall attitudes at the
high school. â€œSeniors and juniors
have expressed how they
feel like there is no sense of authority
anymore which has led
to the current misbehavior of
the younger classes,â€ said Lopez.
She said Perella replied that
there are many students who
never had a sense of closure
from their previous schools,
and that the behaviors in the
outside world have complicated
the situation.
Lopez said Perella stated that
he is working with the superintendent
to build resources and
help the students with many of
the issues that were raised.
â€œThank you for the very thorough
report,â€ said Mayor Brian
Arrigo. â€œWe appreciate it and appreciate
you having the opportunity
to amplify the voices of
the students. Itâ€™s important for
us to hear.â€
School Committee Member
Carol Tye said Lopezâ€™s report
was the most thorough
student report she has experienced
in her time on the committee.
â€œI congratulate you for
the amount of time you put
into it and how you worked very
hard at making it objective, and
still giving voice to all the students
and respect to Dr. Perella,â€
said Tye.

sen today continue to step up
to the plate when our residents
need them the most,â€ said Arrigo.
â€œWe started the Raise Up Revere
fund at the beginning of the
pandemic to support community-driven
organizations that work
to give back to our residents.
Iâ€™m proud of how weâ€™ve utilized
these connections so far and am
excited to see the fund continue
to build capacity over the coming
years.â€
In 2020, four nonprofi ts and organizations
were awarded grants
through the fund. This year, due
to a generous $35,000 donation
from Amazon and supplemented
funds through an anonymous
donor, the fund is able to
award each organization with a
$20,000 grant â€“ totaling $60,000
that will be reflected through
community-based work. Existing
partners who have received
the award in the past include
The Neighborhood Developers
(TND), Union Capital Boston, Moroccan
American Connections in
Revere (MACIR), Women Encouraging
Empowerment (WEE) Revere,
and The First Congressional
Church of Revere Food Pantry.
The Raise Up Revere Fund
also funded fi ve $10,000 â€œShot at
a Healthy Futureâ€ scholarships â€“
awarded to fully-vaccinated residents
to boost incentive around
the vaccine.
â€œThe Raise Up Revere Fund has
been instrumental in helping our
community weather the pandemic
and its ensuing economic
hardship,â€ said Jerome Smith,
Amazonâ€™s Sr. Manager of External
Aff airs. â€œAs a company, weâ€™re
thrilled to partner with them and
ensure their funding can go even
further in assisting our most vulnerable
neighbors.â€
One recipient of the grant this
strated throughout our region.â€
The First Congregational
Church Food Pantry is another
2021 recipient â€“ the $20,000
grant will be used to further efforts
at the weekly Food Pantry
by assisting in IT and computer
relief. Throughout the course
of the pandemic, the First Congregational
Church Food Pantry
operation grew exponentially.
Now the Food Pantry is combined
with the City of Revere

year is HarborCOV, a non-profit
organization that provides
free safety and support services,
along with housing and economic
opportunities for those affected
by domestic violence and
abuse. Executive Director Kourou
Pich plans to use the $20,000
grant for emergency housing â€“
one of the most visible and critical
needs experienced by survivors
of domestic violence.
â€œPartnerships like the Raise Up
Revere fund are key to ensuring
our communities emerge from
this crisis stronger and more resilient
than before,â€ said Bob Giannino,
President and Chief Executive
Officer at United Way
of Massachusetts Bay and Merrimack
Valley. â€œThroughout the
COVID-19 pandemic, we have
seen the power of municipal,
business and community leaders
coming together to raise up
the needs of their residents and
catalyze the resources needed to
address them. Weâ€™re grateful to
Mayor Arrigo for his continued
partnership and to Amazon for
the generosity they have demonâ€œFood
Hubâ€ team and operates
out of the Food Hub at 200 Winthrop
Ave (the previous League
for Special Needs building). The
pantry continues to see a record
number of families during their
weekly food events.
CAPIC (Community Action Programs
Inter-City, Inc), is the third
and fi nal recipient of this yearâ€™s
award. Through the utilization of
$20,000 in Raise Up Revere funding,
CAPIC will provide comprehensive
emergency support services
to at-risk Revere individuals
and families who are in crisis
mode; specifi cally, temporary
emergency placements, such as
hotel placements. CAPICâ€™s Emergency
Assistance Program will
also provide support to individuals
and families once they obtain
permanent housing, such as
gift cards to purchase food, furniture,
and basic household items.

Northeast Metro Tech to reopen
Breakheart Inn
WAKEFIELD â€“ Superintendent
David DiBarri of Northeast
Metropolitan Regional Vocational
High School (Northeast
Metro Tech) and Culinary
Program Head Liz Beals recently
announced that the James
Wallace Breakheart Inn will reopen
to the public for sit-down
meal service. The COVID-19 pandemic
prompted the closure of
the James Wallace Breakheart
Inn â€“ Northeast Metro Techâ€™s inschool
restaurant â€“ in 2020, but
the restaurant will reopen to
the public on Wednesday, Jan.
5, 2022. Students in the Culinary
Program prepare all meals
served at the Breakheart Inn
from scratch each day, and serve
them as well, as part of the Culinary
Program curriculum.
Starting on Jan. 5, the 52-seat
restaurant will be open Tuesday
through Friday from 11:30 a.m.
to 1 p.m. Reservations can be
made by phone on the day of
service. To make a reservation,
call 781-246-0810 ext. 1114.
Guests wishing to enjoy a
meal at Breakheart Inn will need
to wear a mask to enter the
building, at the main entrance
to check in and to enter the restaurant.
Masks may be removed
when guests have been seated
and must be put back on when
getting up from the table.
As the restaurant reopens,
Chef James Nolan will join the
team in the back of the house
as a new chef instructor. Nolan
is a graduate of The Culinary Institute
of America and brings
29 years of teaching experience
and more than 35 years of professional
cooking experience to
the Culinary Program. Nolan is
energetic, positive and looking
forward to bringing new ideas
and new skills to the students.
â€œIâ€™m excited that our students
will once again have the handson
learning opportunities that
the James Wallace Breakheart
Inn provides when it is fully operational,â€
said DiBarri. â€œWe will
have ample safety measures in
place to maintain social distance
and safety amid the pandemic,
and we invite the community
to stop by and see what our
students are cooking.â€

and Water and Sewer Relief Fund
REVERE, MA- Mayor Brian
Arrigo announced this week
that the applications for grants
from the Elderly & Disabled
Residents Taxation Fund and
the newly established Water

for Disabled Residents will be
available in the City Treasurerâ€™s
Offi ce on the 2nd Floor of
City Hall beginning December

pink donation card included in
each quarterly tax bill. The purpose
of the fund is to provide
relief to elderly and/or disabled
taxpayers and disabled
water ratepayers who are having
trouble paying their bills
due to fi nancial hardship.
â€œThis program is funded by
the generosity of Revere residents
looking to extend a
helping hand to those in need,
said Mayor Brian Arrigo. â€œItâ€™s
aimed at helping senior citizens
and fi nancially vulnerable
individuals. This fund will
provide some welcome relief
for those who meet the
criteria.â€
The â€œElderly & Disabled Taxation
Fundâ€ has been in existence
for several years and it

Pilot human study shows novel
treatment suppresses mutant ALS gene
The Angel Fund for ALS Research provides major funding
(Wakefi eld, MA) â€“ A clinical trial
funded by The Angel Fund for
ALS Research has shown signifi -
cant progress in suppressing expression
of the most commonly
mutated ALS gene, C9ORF72 (C9).
The C9 gene mutation, a lengthy
expansion of a repeated segment
of six molecules of DNA, causes
both familial ALS and frontotemporal
dementia. The results of the
human trial, initiated and led by
Drs. Robert H. Brown and Jonathan
Watts at UMass Chan Medical
School, were published in Nature
Medicine.
This is a major milestone and
an exciting breakthrough in the
eff orts to fi nd a treatment for this
neurodegenerative disease, according
to Dr. Brown. The study
was conducted on one patient after
being sanctioned by the FDA.
Dr. Brown and the study team
hope to expand the study to as
many as 10 patients in the coming
months with further FDA approval.
To
silence the C9 gene, the research
team developed antisense
oligonucleotides (ASOs) that target
the two RNA transcripts of
the gene that contain the toxic,
expanded segment of nucleic
acids. When the ASO was delivered
into the spinal fl uid, the activity
of the gene was substantially
suppressed in the participant.
The suppression was maintained
by repeated doses of the
ASO, which were well tolerated
without safety concerns in this pilot
study. According to Dr. Brown,
while ASOs against this target region
have previously been shown
by investigators to attenuate expression
of the C9 gene in neurons
in cell culture and mouse
models, the UMass-led trial was
the fi rst to demonstrate this in a
human. A trial of a comparable
ASO is now also being conducted
by Biogen, Inc, in Cambridge;
results from that study have not
yet been reported.
â€œThe Angel Fund for ALS Research
has been committed to
fi nding a treatment and a cure
for ALS for nearly three decades,â€
The Angel Fund said. â€œThis is a giant
leap forward on the road to
such a discovery. We are proud to
fund this research and are excited
with the promising results of this
clinical trial.â€
Dr. Jonathan Watts commented,
â€œThe research team is excited
and encouraged by these results
and we look forward to expanding
our trial to include more individuals
with C9 ALS and frontotemporal
dementia. We are grateful
to The Angel Fund for ALS Research
for their funding.â€
In addition to the lead role taken
by Drs. Brown and Watts, key
participants included Drs. Helene
Tran and Michael Moazami,
as well as an extensive clinical trials
team. Beyond the major funding
from the Angel Fund, support
was also provided by the National
Institutes of Health and other ALS
organizations.

Top 5 Tips to Cut Costs
and Winterize Your Home
W
indows â€“ Check for leaks
around the edges where
the window is hinged, slides or
meets another unit. Clean the
tracks of any debris that might
be interfering with seals. Lock
windows once winter sets in and
apply a quality exterior caulk to
seal any leaks.
Doors â€“ Feel around the perimeter
of the door for any
cooler air coming in. Check the
weatherstripping around the
door, including the door sweep
attached to the bottom. Apply
exterior-grade caulking to seal
gaps if necessary.
Attics, Basements and
Crawlspaces â€“ Leaky ductwork
is a primary escape route
for warm air, so inspect all visible
ductwork openings that can
be easily accessed. Check for
any holes that go through the
main fl oor to the basement or
attic, for small openings in the
ductwork, electrical or plumbing
connection. Caulk or foam
around them or use foil tape or
mastic to seal any leaks.
Pipes â€“ Disconnect, drain
~ OP-ED ~
and store any garden hoses as
the weather turns cold. Any exposed
water pipes in uninsulated
spaces such as in a crawlspace,
attic, or exterior wall
should be protected with foam
insulating sleeves. Burst pipes
from freezing can cause some
of the most expensive repairs
in the home.
HVAC â€“ Change air fi lters on
a regular basis. Operate the system
on the "auto" fan setting on
the thermostat. Ensure proper
airfl ow by inspecting ducts for
dust buildup and obstructions.
According to the U.S. Department
of Energy, HVAC preventative
maintenance can help save
homeowners up to 25-percent
in energy cost.
Dropping Temperatures,
Rising Costs
â€¢ This winter is forecast to be
slightly colder across the country
than last year.
â€¢ Natural Gas - Nearly half the
homes in the US use natural gas
for heat, and they could pay an

Tips on reducing waste during
the holidays
A
s anyone who has spent
time cleaning up wrapping
paper or the remnants of a holiday
meal knows, this is the season
of celebration, giving â€¦
and waste. In fact, Americans
throw away 25 percent more
trash during the Thanksgiving to
New Year's holiday period than
any other time of year. The extra
waste amounts to 25 million tons
of garbage, or about 1 million extra
tons per week, according to
the U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
But, with a little creativity and
planning, all of us can reduce
waste over the holidays. With
thanks to the EPA, here are some
ideas:
â€¢ Give treasure -- a favorite
book, plant start, or antique.
Check estate sales, flea markets,
and resale shops for unique
fi nds.
â€¢ Choose recycled or sustainably
sourced materials. Shop local
to support area shops, makers,
and artisans while reducing
shipping costs and impacts.
â€¢ Give â€œanti-matterâ€ -- event
tickets, museum memberships,
gift certifi cates, or even your time
and talents.
â€¢ Reuse maps, comics, newsprint,
kid art, or posters as gift
wrap. Wrap gifts in recycled paper
or a reusable bag. Or, skip
the gift wrap, hide the gifts, and
leave clues or trails for kids to
follow.
â€¢ Give rechargeable batteries
with electronics.
â€¢ Consider a potted tree that
can be replanted, or a red cedar
slated for removal during habitat/farm
maintenance.
â€¢ All food-soiled paper products
are commercially compostable,
unless plastic- or foil-coated.
â€¢ Reuse packing and shipping
materials. Save ribbons, bows,
boxes, bags, and dÃ©cor for the
next holiday.
â€¢ Replant, mulch, or compost
your live tree. Compost food
scraps.
We can make a diff erence. If every
family reused just two feet of
holiday ribbon, the 38,000 miles
of ribbon saved could tie a bow
around the entire planet, according
to Stanford University. If every
American family wrapped
just three presents in re-used
materials, it would save enough
paper to cover 45,000 football
fi elds. If we each sent one fewer
greeting card, weâ€™d save 50,000
cubic yards of paper.
Whether it be during the holidays
or any other time of year,
as always, we will be on the job,
collecting and safely disposing
of whatever cannot be recycled
and converting it into clean, renewable
energy to power local
communities. At WIN Waste Innovations,
supporting the needs
of the communities we serve is
one of many ways we bring our
Performance for the Planet vision
to life.
From all of us at WIN Waste Innovations,
we wish you a happy
and sustainable holiday season.

Government Is Our
Business, Especially
When It Comes To
Voting
By Sal Giarratani
W
ell, the race for State Senator
in the 1st Suff olk &
Middlesex district has been decided
in the recent state primary.
City Councilor Lydia Edwards
from East Boston beating Revere
School Committeeman
Anthony Dâ€™Ambrosio gives Edwards
vacated senate seat
As I read the page one headline
in The Revere Advocate
(Low turnout gives Edwards
vacated senate seat), I think
the results of this election and
the horrible turnout shows just
how powerful each of us is if
we just take the time to vote.
How many who came before
us sacrifi ced their lives so that
our democratic republic could
continue. Freedom isnâ€™t free.
It gets paid for all the time by
those we just remembered on
Veterans Day and by those we
just remembered on December
7, the 80th anniversary of
Pearl Harbor.
The least we can do is vote in
our elections. Our system depends
on us voting, making
choices, etc. When we sit on our
hands and let others choose for
us, we give up our right to complain
about the results. We had
our chance and threw it away.
Voting is not a Democrat, Republican,
liberal or conservative
thing, it is an American thing. In
all transparency, I have worked
in numerous campaigns over
the years and have been a candidate
for public office too. I
know first-hand the importance
of elections.
Government is always our
business. Either we run the government
or it runs us. Sit back,
do nothing but donâ€™t pretend
you are an innocent bystander.
I congratulate Lydia Edwards
on her victory and I congratulate
Anthony Dâ€™Ambrosio for
running. They stepped into
the arena. Too bad there were
so few who couldnâ€™t even take
the time to show up and vote.
Maybe next time, some of
these no-shows will actually
show up and vote but thereâ€™ll
probably be just more excuses
why they couldnâ€™t fi nd the time.
This is America; it only works
if its citizens do their duty starting
by voting.

AG Healey urges businesses and organizations to remain
on guard against cyberattacks this holiday season
I
n light of persistent and ongoing
cyber threats this holiday
season, Attorney General Maura
Healey is urging organizations,
especially critical infrastructure
owners and operators, to adopt
a heightened state of vigilance
against cyberattacks and to proactively
assess existing data security
practices.
â€œCybercrime is a prominent
and persistent threat against
both our public infrastructure
and our private enterprises,â€ said
Healey. â€œWe urge all Massachusetts
businesses and government
organizations to take action
to strengthen their cyber
defenses, and we will continue
to work alongside our federal
law enforcement partners to address
evolving security threats.â€
The federal Cybersecurity and
Infrastructure Security Agency
(CISA) urged business leaders
and operators of critical infrastructure,
such as public utilities,
government organizations and
agencies, logistics and transportation
fi rms, and healthcare
providers, to take immediate
steps to strengthen their organizationâ€™s
operational resiliency
against cyber threats. Healey
joins CISA in off ering the following
actions to reinforce their
defenses:
â€¢ Increase organizational vigilance
by ensuring there are no
gaps in Information Technology
(IT)/Operational Technology
(OT) security personnel coverage
and that staff provides continual
monitoring for all types of
anomalous behavior. Security
coverage is particularly important
during the winter holiday
season when organizations typically
have lower staffi ng.
â€¢ Prepare your organization for
rapid response by adopting a
state of heightened awareness.
Create, update, or review your
cyber incident response procedures
and ensure your personnel
are familiar with the key
steps they need to take during
and following an incident. Have
staff check reporting processes
and exercise continuity of operations
plans to test your ability
to operate key functions in an
IT-constrained or otherwise degraded
environment. Consider
your organizationâ€™s cross-sector
dependencies and the impact
that a potential incident at
your organization may have on
other sectors, as well as how an
incident at those sectors could
aff ect your organization.
â€¢ Ensure your network defenders
implement cybersecurity
best practices. Enforce multi-factor
authentication and strong
passwords, install software updates
(prioritizing known exploited
vulnerabilities), and secure
accounts and credentials.
â€¢ Stay informed about current
cybersecurity threats and
malicious techniques. Encourage
your IT/OT security staff to
subscribe to CISAâ€™s mailing list
Sweet Dreams
By Gini Pariseau
I
t was an especially dark night.
The moon was only showing a
sliver of itself. It looked like it had
been dipped in chocolate. A hint
of cloud that looked like a scoop
of marshmallow fl uff could be
seen beside the sliver of moon.
It was a night for sweet dreams.
Some girls and boys knew
what time of year it was by the
change in the weather. Some
knew by the amount of shopping
their parents suddenly
did. Others knew by the name
of the month on the calendarâ€¦
December!
It was the time of year to be
especially good. It was a night
to catch a sweet dream.
Sweet dreams love an especially
dark night. They fl y around
out there by the dozens, bumping
into each other, trying to fi nd
a lovely little sleeping child to
share their magic. It is a very diffi
cult and tedious task to make
the perfect match. When morning
comes, all sweet dreams
must be gone. All are, hopefully,
in the hearts and minds of chiland
feeds to receive notifications
when CISA releases information
about a security topic or
threat. CISA regularly announces
emerging security threats to
organizations, such as security
vulnerabilities with ApacheLog4j,
a commonly used opensource
application.
â€¢ Lower the threshold for
threat and information sharing.
Immediately report cybersecurity
incidents and anomalous
activity to CISA and/or the FBI.
Cyberattacks can cause substantial
disruptions to businesses,
government agencies and
other targets. Earlier this year, a
widely-reported cybersecurity
breach at Colonial Pipeline led
to fuel shortages across the East
Coast. In April 2021, the city of
Lawrence, Massachusetts faced
ransomware attacks against systems
at City Hall, the Lawrence
Police Department and the Lawrence
Fire Department. A similar
ransomware attack targeted the
Brockton, Massachusetts police
department in July 2021.
The Massachusetts Data Security
Regulations, which the
AGâ€™s Offi ce regularly enforces,
also require entities to employ
many of the above safeguards
with respect to personal information
about Massachusetts
residents that an entity maintains,
stores, transmits, or processes
electronically.
All organizations, regardless of
sector, size, or location, must recognize
that no company is safe
from being targeted by ransomware
and other cyber threats.
Detailed guidance and resources
from the U.S. Cybersecurity
& Infrastructure Security Agency
can be found at CISA Insights:
Preparing For and Mitigating Potential
Cyber Threats.
The National Institute of Standards
and Technology also provide
guidelines and practices for
organizations to better manage
and reduce cybersecurity risk.

At this time of
dren somewhere in this world.
Babies in cribs, boys and girls
in their beds, sleeping bags,
tents and parentâ€™s arms â€“ all
were sound asleep and hoping
for a sweet dream.
Now, it was getting close to
morning and getting close to
December 25. There was one
dream still out there this night.
It was floating around frantically
trying to fi nd some child
who would cherish the magic
of dreaming and would want
what this sweet dream had to
off er. It was December and children
are very particular about
their sweet dreams.
But, that was the hard partâ€¦
what this sweet dream had to
off er. It wasnâ€™t sweet like candy
or fun like doing a puzzle or riding
a bike. It was plain and simple
and shared in a minute.
As the sun came up and the
moon melted into day, somewhere
in this world a little child
awoke from the night and remembered
the sweet dream
that was shared and whispered
in their earâ€¦you are loved!
How sweet it is!
Magic and
Wonder,
We count our blessings to
serve such an
AMAZING Community!
To All of Our Friends
& Neighbors,
We Wish You a
Joyous Holiday Season,
and a Bright, Happy New Year!

THE REVERE ADVOCATE â€“ FRIDAY, DECEMBER 24, 2021
Baker files bills to protect survivors from dangerous
individuals, limit distribution of pornography
O
n December 15, the BakerPolito
Administration fi led
two bills to create comprehensive
new protections for survivors
of domestic violence, sexual
assault, assault and battery,
the harmful distribution of explicit
images, and other crimes.
The two bills, which were refi led
by the Administration, are An
Act to protect victims of crimes
and the public (H.4290) and An
Act relative to the harmful distribution
of sexually explicit visual
materials (H.4291). Together, the
proposals mandate strengthening
public safety tools and statutes
designed to keep survivors
and communities safe. On December
16 the House referred
both bills to its Committee on
the Judiciary.
Governor Charlie Baker and
Lt. Governor Karyn Polito announced
the legislation at a
roundtable event where they
heard from survivors whose stories
speak to the importance of
these critical public safety reforms.
The roundtable was held
at Plymouth Public Library and
was moderated by Executive Director
Sandra Blatchford of the
South Shore Resource and Advocacy
Center, which works with
several survivors.
â€œSSRAC fully supports both
legislative fi lings to address dangerousness
and SEVM [sexually
explicit visual materials]. Holding
offenders on dangerousness
enables survivors to focus
on their safety,â€ said Blatchford.
â€œProtection against the pervasive
threat of a dangerous offender
often means a victim
may have to leave employment,
uproot children, and move away
from support systems. The provisions
of the dangerousness
legislation will enable survivors
to evaluate options, work with
advocates, and move towards
healing and safety.â€
Other advocates and survivor
resource organizations were
also present to speak in support
of the legislative package.
Several survivors who spoke in
support of the Administrationâ€™s
dangerousness-prevention legislation
shared their experiences
with domestic violence and
noted that the legislation would
provide stronger protections
for people who encounter similar
experiences in the future.
Other survivors told stories that
highlighted the importance of
strengthening and modernizing
laws that hold people accountable
for the distribution of sexually
explicit visual materials.
â€œTodayâ€™s proposals would provide
stronger protections for
survivors, and we are grateful
for our partnership with providers
and advocacy organizations
who support survivors for sharing
their stories in support of
this legislation,â€ said Baker. â€œOur
dangerousness proposal would
update the current system of
pretrial detention, which exposes
victims and survivors to potential
harm. Making these and
other commonsense changes
will strengthen the ability of
prosecutors and the courts to
hold dangerous individuals and
protect survivors and our communities.â€
â€œHearing
survivorsâ€™ stories underscores
the importance of acting
soon to make these reforms
that will make our families and
communities safer,â€ said Polito,
who is chair of the Governorâ€™s
Council to Address Sexual Assault
and Domestic Violence. â€œBy
modernizing the laws governing
the harmful distribution of
sexually visual materials, we can
combat cyberbullying through
prevention education, empower
prosecutors to appropriately
handle cases involving minors
and explicit images and help
state law keep up with what
technology is now.â€
â€œWe cannot overstate the
courage of victims and survivors
who have chosen to share
their experiences and support
these bills,â€ said Public Safety
and Security Secretary Terrence
Reidy. â€œAs a former prosecutor
now charged with leading
the stateâ€™s public safety apparatus,
I know these laws will equip
criminal justice and law enforcement
professionals to mitigate
the threat of dangerous individuals
and nonconsensual sharing
of explicit content, especially
among our young people. The
measures in these bills demonstrate
the Administrationâ€™s responsiveness
to challenges facing
todayâ€™s society.â€
â€œWe have worked with too
many victims brutally assaulted
at the hands of a predator with a
long and violent criminal history.
While pending trial, these offenders
often violate stay-away
orders, with little consequence,â€
said Health Imperatives CEO Julia
Kehoe. â€œThis dangerousness
legislation will provide law enforcement
and criminal justice
professionals with long-overdue
tools to save lives and reduce
incidents of domestic and
sexual violence.â€
An Act to protect victims of
crimes and the public: First fi led
in 2018, the Administrationâ€™s
proposal would expand the
list of off enses that can provide
grounds for a dangerousness
hearing and close certain loopholes
at the start and end of the
criminal process that currently
limit or prevent eff ective action
to address legitimate safety
concerns. It would strengthen
the ability of judges to enforce
the conditions of pretrial release
by empowering police to detain
people who they observe violating
court-ordered release conditions;
current law does not allow
this, and instead requires
a court to fi rst issue a warrant.
Under this proposal, judges will
be empowered to revoke a personâ€™s
release when the off ender
has violated a court-ordered
condition, such as an order to
stay away from a victim or from
a public playground. Current
law requires an additional fi nding
of dangerousness before release
may be revoked.
The legislation also expands
the list of off enses which can
provide grounds for a dangerousness
hearing, including
crimes of sexual abuse and
crimes of threatened or potential
violence. It also follows the
longstanding federal model in
including a defendantâ€™s history
of serious criminal convictions
as grounds that may warrant a
dangerousness hearing. Current
law requires courts to focus only
DEA: â€˜One Pill Can Killâ€™
T
he holiday season presents
an opportunity to promote
awareness of substance misuse
and the widespread availability
of dangerous substances. Many
young adults are being exposed
to illicit substances. Individuals
experiencing isolation, loss or
loneliness during the holidays
might turn to misusing substances
for relief. Check in with
family and friends and have important
conversations about
counterfeit pills.
The U.S. overdose epidemic
has reached a tragic level. Data
from the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC)
for the most recent 12-month
reporting period show that
more than 100,000 people died
due to drug overdoses â€“ primarily
from fentanyl and methamphetamine.
That is the equivalent
of one death every five
minutes due to an overdose.
This year the U.S. Drug Enforcement
Administration (DEA) has
seized 15,000 pounds of fentanyl
â€“ a record amount â€“ which is
the equivalent of 440 million lethal
doses.
Criminal drug networks are
exploiting the U.S. opioid crisis
by mass-producing fentanyl and
fentanyl-laced pills that theyâ€™re
distributing to all 50 states and
the District of Columbia. These
deadly, fake pills are made and
marketed to look like genuine,
prescription medicine. DEA laboratory
analysis has shown that
four out of 10 fake pills with fentanyl
contain a potentially lethal
dose.
Fake pills are widely available.
Criminal drug networks take advantage
of the anonymity and
accessibility social media platforms
off er to push deadly drugs
more quickly, easily and cheaply
than ever before. Drug traffi
ckers are even using emojis as
code when buying and selling
deadly drugs on social media
platforms.
â€¢ Know the dangers of deadly
drugs online.
â€¢ Never take medicine that
wasnâ€™t prescribed to you by your
own doctor.
â€¢ Talk to your family and friends
about the danger of buying
drugs online.
â€¢ Spread the word that One
Pill Can Kill.
Facts about counterfeit pills
Criminal drug networks are
mass-producing fake pills and
falsely marketing them as legitimate
prescription pills to
deceive the American public.
Counterfeit pills are easy to purchase,
widely available, often
contain fentanyl or methamphetamine
and can be deadly.
Fake prescription pills are easily
accessible and often sold on
social media and e-commerce
platforms, making them available
to anyone with a smartphone,
including minors. Many
counterfeit pills are made to
look like prescription opioids â€“
such as oxycodone (OxycontinÂ®
), hydrocodone (Vico)
,
PercocetÂ®

)
and alprazolam (XanaxÂ®

on the crime charged, ignoring
a defendantâ€™s criminal history
when determining whether the
defendant may be the subject of
this sort of hearing.
Additional elements of this
proposal would:
â€¢ Extend the requirement that
police take the fi ngerprints of
people arrested for felonies to
all people arrested, regardless of
the charge, and allows a court to
order fi ngerprinting of any person
arraigned on any criminal
charge, to ensure that decisions
about release can be made with
knowledge of a personâ€™s true
identity and full criminal history.
â€¢ Enhance the collection and
value of data for the cross-tracking
system required by Massachusetts
General Laws c. 6A Â§
183/4, by ensuring that information
about an individual who
is arrested or arraigned can be
linked to a unique fi ngerprint
identifi er.
â€¢ Require that the probation
department, bail commissioners
and bail magistrates notify
authorities who can take remedial
action when a person who
is on pretrial release commits a
new off ense anywhere in the
Commonwealth or elsewhere.
â€¢ Allow bail commissioners
and bail magistrates to consider
dangerousness in deciding
whether to release an arrestee
from a police station when court
is out of session.
â€¢ Create a new felony off ense
for cutting off a court-ordered
GPS device.

Last, But Certainly Not Least

How Older Drivers Can
Save on Auto Insurance
Dear Savvy Senior,
Can you provide any tips to help seniors reduce their auto
insurance premiums? I just got hit with a 15 percent increase on
my car insurance and am looking for ways to save.
Fixed Income Frank
Dear Frank,
Unfortunately, auto insurance
rates went up signifi cantly over
the past year as the pandemic
eased and more Americans got
back on the roads. But there are
plenty of ways to cut your premium.
To fi nd out what discounts
may be available to you, contact
your auto insurer and inquire
about these options, and any others
that may benefi t you.
Low mileage discount: Most insurers
off er discounts to customers
who drive limited miles each
year, which is usually benefi cial
to retirees who drive less because
they donâ€™t commute to work
every day. These discounts usually
kick in when your annual mileage
drops below 7,000 or 7,500,
which is signifi cantly less than the
typical 12,000 miles most Americans
drive a year.
Drivers Ed discount: Many
states require insurance companies
to off er defensive driving
discounts â€“ between fi ve and 15
percent â€“ to drivers who take a
refresher course to brush up on
their safety skills. These courses,
off ered by AAA (aaadriver.online/register/roadwise)
and AARP
(aarpdriversafety.org), cost $20
to $30 and can be taken online.
Monitored driving discount:
Many insurance providers offer
discounts based on how and
when you use your car. To get
this, the insurer would provide
a small monitoring device that
you would place in your car to
track things like your acceleration,
braking habits, driving speeds,
phone use and when you drive.
Drivers are rewarded between
10 and 50 percent for safe driving
and for not driving late at night.
In addition, many insurance
providers also off er discounts to
drivers who do not have any violations
or accidents for three or
more years.
Membership discounts: Organizations
that you belong to
can also lower your insurance
premium. Insurers off er discounts
through professional associations,
workersâ€™ unions, large employers
or membership organizations
such as AAA, the National
Active and Retired Federal Employees
Association, AARP, etc.
You could even qualify for savings
based on the college you attended
or the fraternity or sorority you
belonged to decades ago.
Bundle policies: If your auto
policy is issued by a different
company from the one insuring
your life or home, call each insurer
and ask if bundling the policies
would be cheaper.
Improve your credit: You may
be able to lower your car insurance
premium by paying your
bills on time and reducing the
amount of debt you carry. Insurers
look at how their customers
manage credit to get an idea
of risk and to price policies. Better
rates are given to those with
good credit scores, typically 700
or above.
Increase your deductible:
While itâ€™s not right for everyone,
paying a higher deductible could
save you big on premiums. For
example, raising your deductible
from $200 to $500 could reduce
the cost of your collision and
comprehensive coverage by 15
to 30 percent. Going to a $1,000
deductible could save you 40 percent
or more.
Consider your car model: If
youâ€™re shopping for a new vehicle,
call for an insurance quote before
you decide what to buy. Some vehicles
are safer and cost less to repair
than others. Insurance companies
collect data about each
make and model and use it to
determine how much to charge
customers.
Comparison shop: To fi nd out
if your current premium is competitive
with what other insurers
charge, or to help you look for
a diff erent provider you should
comparison shop. Online brokerages
such as CarInsurance.com,
TheZebra.com and QuoteWizard.
com let you plug in basic details
â€“ such as your age and your carâ€™s
make, model and year â€“ to compare
rates from insurance companies.

inally, here it wasâ€¦Christmas
Eve. It was the night Allison
had been waiting for. The
family would gather around the
tree as Allison and her two older
brothers gave their parents their
gifts. It was the fi rst year Allison
had been old enough to be part
of giving her very own present
to her parents.
Allison was excited about
her gift because she had made
it herself. As her parents sat in
the two big chairs beside the
fireplace, her brother Jamie
pulled a red box with a green
bow stuck to the top out from
under the tree and handed it to
his mom. She read the little tag
aloud and opened the box. Inside
was a beautiful red candle,
and as his dad put a match to
its wick, Jamie told them that
it would smell like cinnamon in
a minute. Everyone waited and
commented on the wonderful
cinnamon scent.
Next came Peter, who proudly
presented a gold box with gold
ribbon to his Dad, who read the
tag and opened the box. Inside
was a wonderful assortment of
jelly candies. Everyone sampled
a diff erent fl avor and commented
how good their choice was.
Allison came up next with her
hands behind her back. In one
sweeping action she presented
her gift and held it in front
of her. It was a big card that had
a Christmas tree on the front
with Santa and his reindeer going
over the top of it. At the bottom,
Allison had printed â€œMom
and Dadâ€ with a diff erent color
for each letter. Allisonâ€™s mom
reached for the card, and both
parents leaned together as they
read the inside and commented
on the pictures. Allisonâ€™s
dad sat the card on the mantle
and suggested everyone sample
another round of jelly candies.
He then turned the room
lights down so they could appreciate
the glow from the candle
better.
The card Allison had made for
her parents faded out of sight
on the mantle as the candlelight
illuminated the coff ee table and
the candy box. Allison began
to feel her gift didnâ€™t match up
to her brothersâ€™. The card had
only provided momentary excitement
as it was opened. Already
it had faded in comparison
to her brothersâ€™ gifts. She
passed on the next round of jelly
candy and expressed her desire
to go to bed so Santa Claus
could come.
She went to sleep dreaming
of a magic moment when her
parents would like and enjoy
her present the best.
The next morning she came
down the stairs to the living
room, and while there were
so many presents under the
tree from Santa, the fi rst thing
she noticed was the coff ee table.
The candle had burned itself
away and the box that contained
the jelly candy was empty.
But there, sitting high and
proud on the mantle, was her
card.
MAPC launches new report
ranking Metro Boston bike paths,
greenways and trails
H
ow does your community
stack up when it comes to
creating safe, accessible walking
and bicycling routes?
A new report aims to help you
fi nd out.The â€œMetro Boston Municipal
Trails, Bikeways & Greenways
Inventoryâ€ study released
this week by the Metropolitan
Area Planning Council (MAPC)
is tracking the regionâ€™s progress
toward building new bike
and pedestrian facilities across
Greater Boston â€“ ranking cities
and towns based on total mileage
recently built. It compares
communities based on shareduse
path, bicycle lane and foot
path availability. The report also
examines access disparities by
race and socio-economic status,
and it off ers a list of high-priority
projects to link key routes regionally
for greater equity.
According to the report, Cambridge,
Somerville and Boston
are leading the region by bike
lane mileage, with more than 15
percent of streets in Cambridge
featuring some form of protected
bike lane, and at least 10 percent
of streets in Somerville and
fi ve percent of streets in Boston.
The report is current through
the end of 2020 and is using
data pulled from trailmap.mapc.
org, MAPCâ€™s inventory of bike
and pedestrian infrastructure
in Greater Boston. The full report
is available at mapc.org/
resource-library/trails-inventory.
According to MAPC, the goal
is to update the database annually.
â€œItâ€™s
great to see this kind of
data in one place, and to be able
to show lots of measurable momentum
toward building out a
safe network of interconnected
trails and bike lanes,â€ said MAPC
Senior Transportation Planner
David Loutzenheiser. â€œThe goal
is to get even more information,
especially in light of how transportation
patterns continue to
evolve amid the pandemic, and
to be able to use that to help cities
and towns make a case for future
investments.â€
â€œThereâ€™s great news in the report,
showing the significant
progress thatâ€™s been made since
the time in the early 1990s when
the Boston area bicycle and
trail network consisted of the
Paul Dudley White Path along
the Charles River and the Minuteman
Trail in Arlington,â€ said
Malden Councillor-at-Large Stephen
Winslow, who founded
Bike to the Sea in 1993 to help
create what is now the Northern
Strand Community Trail, which
connects Everett to Lynn and
Nahant. Connecting the Northern
Strand through to Salem
is one of the fi ve key regional
routes identifi ed in the report
as a high priority for the region.
â€œIâ€™m hopeful that as more residents
become familiar with the
newest facilities being added
through the Complete Streets
and Shared Streets programs,
that momentum will continue
to build towards the vision of
a transformative regional network,â€
said Winslow.
Massachusetts Bicycle Coalition
Executive Director Galen
Mook said bicycling infrastructure
helps to support a growing
economy and attracts new
development while alleviating
traffi c and pollution that is
harmful to communities. â€œThis
ranking of bike lanes, trails [and
bikeways] across the Metro
Boston region by MAPC shows
which municipalities are investing
in their communities, and
provides incentives and best
practices for municipalities to
inspire and educate leaders to
take action,â€ said Mook. â€œSince
this report showcases exactly
where the gaps are, policymakers
and municipal leaders in
communities that didnâ€™t rank as
high will hopefully be motivated
to invest in their infrastructure
as the benefi ts of better bicycling
and walking infrastructure
become apparent.â€

PROTECT | FROM Page 10
ful distribution of sexually explicit
visual materials: First fi led
in 2017, the proposal modernizes
the laws governing the distribution
of sexually explicit images
and empowers District Attorneys
with additional tools to
protect children. Under this proposal,
the fi rst step in an explicit
images case involving a minor
will be to enroll the minor in an
educational diversion program
rather than go through the juvenile
justice process and potentially
have the minor committed
to the Department of
Youth Services. While District Attorneys
and the Attorney General
will still have the right to bypass
educational diversion programs
in certain instances, the
focus will now be on educational
diversion rather than legal
punishment.
Current Massachusetts law
calls for minors who engage
in peer-to-peer distribution of
sexually explicit visual material
to be subject to prosecution
for the distribution or possession
of child pornography. This
legislation seeks to update the
law consistent with our lives
and 21st-century technology.
Should a case proceed to the
juvenile justice system, this bill
affords district attorneys the
discretion to decide whether a
minor should be charged with
a misdemeanor rather than a
felony. The fl exibility provided
under this law will help ensure
that minors who do not belong
in the juvenile justice system do
not wind up there.
This legislation also seeks to
close a loophole under current
law by creating penalties for
adults who distribute a sexually
explicit image for purposes
of revenge or embarrassment.
While current law addresses
nonconsensual recording of an
unsuspecting person, it does
not address instances where
someone distributes an image
without consent regardless of
whether the initial image may
have been taken with consent.
This legislation closes the gap in
state law by creating a new felony
off ense and empowering
judges in criminal proceedings
to ensure that an explicit image
in question is permanently destroyed.

BUILDING | FROM Page 1
high school then being demolished
to replicate the playing
fi elds on that portion of the
property. In addition, the building
committee is considering
a high school plan that could
include the renovation of the
current fi eld house in addition
to a new building, rather than
building the gym into the new
high school. However, Dakin
said that option could severely
impact high school sports
for close to two years, since the
fi eld house would be inaccessible.
Each
option would see a new
high school open for students
in the summer of 2026, according
to Brian Dakin of Leftfi eld.
Dakin highlighted some of
the benefi ts and disadvantages
of each site, as well as potential
overall costs of the project
and the cost to the city. All three
building options come in at an
initial cost estimate of over $400
million, according to Dakin, but
those numbers will be revised
in the coming months as a site
is selected and schematic planning
gets underway for the selected
option. â€œWeâ€™re confi dent
that by the time we are picking
one of these, we can get all of
these options under $400 million
and the cost to Revere will
be in the $230 million to $250
million range,â€ said Dakin.
Revere has a Massachusetts
School Building Authority
(MSBA) grant that will reimburse
the city 76 percent of
the building cost, but Dakin
said there are a number of caveats
to that reimbursement
number. For example, Dakin
said there are a number of
caps on reimbursement levels
for site work, which he said
will be extensive at the current
high school site. The MSBA also
does not reimburse for land acquisition,
which would be a major
expense with the Wonderland
site, which would have to
be either purchased from the
current owner or taken by eminent
domain.
â€œWe are carrying $23 million
for land acquisition for the acreage
that we need to put the
school there,â€ said Dakin.
He said the city has been in
constant touch with the Wonderland
property owners, and
he added that a new school will
likely need about 25 of the 33
acres on the site. Dakin said the
remaining acreage could be privately
developed, and that the
tax revenue from that development
could potentially help pay
for the cost of the Wonderland
land acquisition over a number
of years.
When all is said and done, Dakin
said, the actual reimbursement
amount from the state
for either building project will
be closer to 40 percent of the
total cost.
The advantages of building
on the current high school site
include not having to pay for
the land acquisition, as would
be the case at Wonderland, and
it would be the most cost-eff ective
option, according to Dakin.
He said the location is also better
for pedestrians and bikes.
Disadvantages include the disruption
to school operations for
up to fi ve years and the temporary
loss of the use of Erricola
Park and Ambrose Field, which
would be used for temporary
parking over that time period.
The advantages of the Wonderland
site, according to Dakin,
include the ability to use the
current high school building
down the road as a new middle
school or community center
and the lack of disruptions to
school operations. Disadvantages
include it being the more
expensive option and that it is
farther from the center of the
community.
January will be a key month
for the project, with a presentation
scheduled before the City
Council on Jan. 10 and a public
forum on Jan. 12. The Revere
High School Building Committee
will make its site recommendation
on Jan. 13, with votes by
the School Committee scheduled
for Jan. 18 and the City
Council on Jan. 24.

After two wins, Patriots suffer
first loss to Lynn Classical
By Greg Phipps
C
onvincing league victories
over Everett and Somerville
to open the season had
the Revere High School girlsâ€™
basketball team feeling very
good about itself. But the Patriots
were brought back down to
earth a bit on Tuesday after suffering
a 29-point road defeat at
the hands of the Lynn Classical
Rams. The loss gave Revere an
early 2-1 record and left the Patriots
at 2-1 in Greater Boston
League play as well.
Just one Patriot player â€“ Skyla
DeSimone â€“ fi nished in double
fi gures against Classical. She
had 12 points. Carolina Carvalho-Bettero,
who had combined
for 40 points in the fi rst two contests,
was held to seven points
in the eventual 52-23 loss to
the Rams.
First-year Head Coach Chris
Porrazzo acknowledged that
it was great to start off 2-0 but
understood that the matchup
against Classical on the road was
going to provide a major challenge.
â€œThatâ€™s not an easy place
to play and theyâ€™re an extremely
well-coached team," he told the
press prior to the game.
The Patriots ended last week
on a solid note, coming off the
season-opening win last Tuesday
against perennial league
powerhouse Everett, as they
rolled to a 56-20 rout of Somerville
last Thursday. Carvalho-Bettero
connected for 14 points and
DeSimone added fi ve points and
seven takeaways. Bella Stama
also had a solid all-around eff ort
in the win.
Porrazzo said it was important
not to suff er a letdown against
the Highlanders following the
Everett win. He said his group
succeeded in doing that. â€œWe did
that pretty emphatically from
the jump,â€ he told the press. â€œOur
defense created a lot of pressure
up and down the court which
generated most of our off ense.â€
Through their first three
games, the Patriots had outscored
the opposition by a 10859
margin in the two wins while
being defeated by 29 in the lone
loss. Revere moves on to participate
in the North Reading High
School holiday tournament on
Monday and Tuesday.

THE HOUSE AND SENATE:
There were no roll calls in the
House or Senate last week. This
week, Beacon Hill Roll Call reports
on the percentage of times local
senators voted with their partyâ€™s
leadership in the 2021 session.
No additional roll calls in the Senate
are planned until 2022. Beacon
Hill Roll Call uses 111 votes from
the 2021 Senate session as the
basis for this report. This includes
all roll calls that were not quorum
calls or on local issues. The votes of
the 34 Democrats were compared
to Senate Majority Leader Cynthia
Creem (D-Newton), second-incommand
in the Senate. We could
not compare the Democratsâ€™ votes
to those of Senate President Karen
Spilka (D-Ashland) because, by tradition,
the Senate president rarely
votes. The senator who voted
with Creem the least percentage
of times is Sen. Diana DiZoglio (DMethuen)
who voted with her only
83 times (74.7 percent). Rounding
out the top three who voted with
Creem the least number of times
are Sens. Walter Timilty (D-Milton)
who voted with her 91 times
(81.9 percent) and Marc Pacheco
(D-Taunton) who voted with her
96 times (86.4 percent) All in all,
31 of the 34 Democrats (99.1 percent)
voted with Creem 90 percent
or more of the time -- including
11 (32.3 percent) who voted with
Creem 100 percent of the time and
six who voted with Creem all but
one time. The votes of the two Republican
senators were compared
with those of GOP Senate Minority
Leader Bruce Tarr (R-Gloucester).
In 2021, as in 2020, none of
the two voted with Tarr 100 percent
of the time. In 2021, the Republican
senator who voted the
lowest percentage of times with
Tarr was Sen. Patrick Oâ€™Connor (RWeymouth)
who voted with Tarr
82.8 percent of the time. Sen. Ryan
Fattman (R-Sutton) voted with Tarr
90 percent of the time.
SENATORSâ€™ SUPPORT OF
THEIR PARTYâ€™S LEADERSHIP
IN 2021
The percentage next to the senatorâ€™s
name represents the percentage
of times the senator supported
his or her partyâ€™s leadership
in 2021. The number in parentheses
represents the number of
times the senator opposed his or
her partyâ€™s leadership. Some senators
voted on all 111 roll call votes.
Others missed one or more roll
calls. The percentage for each representative
is calculated based on
the number of roll calls on which
he or she voted.
Sen. Joseph Boncore has resigned
HOW
LONG WAS LAST WEEKâ€™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 Legislatureâ€™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 December
13-17, the House and Senate
each met for a total of 24 minutes.
Mon. Dec. 13 House 11:00 a.m.
to 11:12 a.m.
Senate 11:05 a.m. to 11:18 a.m.
Tues. Dec. 14 No House session
No Senate session
Wed. Dec. 15 No House session
No
Senate session
Thurs. Dec. 16 House 11:00
a.m. to 11:12 a.m.
Senate 11:06 a.m. to 11:17 a.m.
Fri. Dec. 17 No House session
No Senate session

PRINCIPAL
RESIDENCE PROBATE,
MASSHEALTH AND
CAPITAL GAINS TAX
CONSIDERATIONS
I
f you transfer your home
to an irrevocable trust in
order to protect the home
from the possibility of going
into a nursing home, there
are several benefi ts of doing
so. First and foremost, once
your home is transferred to
an irrevocable trust, the fi veyear
look back period commences
in order to protect
the home in the event of
one or both of the Donorâ€™s
of the trust enters a nursing
home and needs to apply
for MassHealth benefi ts.
Another benefi t of an irrevocable
trust is the avoidance
of probate upon the
death of the Donor(s) of the
trust. Certainly, if a husband
and wife own the home
as tenants by the entirety,
probate would be avoided
upon the fi rst spouse to die.
If the surviving spouse does
not take action to place the
home either into a revocable
trust or irrevocable trust,
upon the death of the surviving
spouse, the children
would have to initiate probate
proceedings in order
to obtain title to the home.
A simultaneous death, although
very unlikely, would
also result in the children
having to probate the estates
of both spouses. Having
a funded irrevocable
trust would obviously avoid
the negative ramifi cations
of that unlikely event.
When you place your
home into an irrevocable
trust, you also obtain the
benefi t of being able to sell
your home and take advantage
of the Internal Revenue
Code Section 121 capital
gains tax exclusion on
the sale of your principal
residence. The trust will be
drafted as a grantor-type
trust for not only income
tax purposes but for capital
gains tax purposes. For
a husband and wife, this
means the fi rst $500,000 of
capital gain is exempt from
taxation. For a single person,
the first $250,000 of
capital gain is exempt from
taxation. The home must be
your principal residence for
at least two of the fi ve-year
period immediately preceding
the date of sale.
What is becoming more
of a concern with deeding
the home outright to the
children reserving a life estate
in the home by the parents
is the greater likelihood
of a child dying prior to the
parents. With life expectancy
so long with medical
technology, it is not uncommon
for one of the parents
to reach the age of 90, 95
or even 100. Consequently,
may have a situation where
a child dies of some cause
age 65 or 70. These situations
unfortunately do occur.
In the deed with a life
estate plan, since the home
was deeded directly to the
children, the child who has
now died has an estate
that needs to be probated.
If, however, the home
was placed into an irrevocable
trust, the predeceased
childâ€™s trust share would be
held in further trust for his or
her children. If that child had
no children, his or her share
would be distributed to the
surviving siblings. This dispositive
scheme would be
pursuant to the terms of the
trust, not the Last Will and
Testament. There would be
no involvement by the probate
court. This would result
in signifi cantly less legal
fees, time and complexity
when compared to the
probate process.

AG Healeyâ€™s Office opens application period for grant program
to help residents pay heating bills
W
ith energy prices on the
rise this winter, Attorney
General Maura Healey has announced
a new grant program
to help Massachusetts residents
pay their monthly heating bills.
â€œEach winter, tens of thousands
of families across our state
struggle to pay their heating bills
and thatâ€™s only worsened with
the unprecedented pandemic
and rising energy prices,â€ Healey
said. â€œOur goal with this program
is to help give Massachusetts residents
the fi nancial support they
need to stay warm this winter.â€
Economic uncertainty related
to the COVID-19 pandemic
and volatility in global fossil
fuel prices are leading to a spike
in energy prices this winter. AG
Healeyâ€™s Residential Energy Assistance
Grant (REAG) will provide
approximately $500,000 in
funding to organizations that
assist Massachusetts households
in paying their energy
bills. The program builds on the
offi ceâ€™s Natural Gas Fuel Assistance
grant program by expanding
the types of fuel sources that
are eligible for assistance. In addition
to natural gas, eligible fuels
may include, but arenâ€™t limited
to, electricity, oil, and propane.
The Natural Gas Fuel Assistance
grant program has
awarded more than $3 million
over three years to organizations
across the state including
the United Way, the Lend a Hand
Society, the Southeast Asian Coalition,
the Massachusetts Association
for Community Action.
The AGâ€™s REAG program is
open to state agencies, municipalities,
and nonprofi t organizations
with eligible programs including
those that provide direct
assistance to residents by
subsidizing their home heating
costs or those that provide specialized
assistance to customers
in need including help translating
application documents.
Approximately 400,000 Massachusetts
residential customers
currently receive a low-income
discount rate on their
electric and gas bills, with more
customers signing up for payment
plans each week. Enrollment
in similar programs is expected
to increase with this winterâ€™s
high energy rates.
The AGâ€™s Offi ce is especially
interested in proposals for programs
that will provide funding
to families who otherwise
would not be receiving fuel
assistance, or who are not receiving
suffi cient help in paying
their monthly heating bills.
Successful applicants will be
those that provide assistance to
households that make 80 percent
or less than the Massachusetts
median income. Families
that make 60 to 80 percent of
the stateâ€™s median income are
particularly vulnerable to this
winterâ€™s rising energy rates and
are simultaneously ineligible
for assistance from the Low-Income
Home Energy Assistance
Program (LIHEAP).
The REAG program is funded
through a settlement that the
AGâ€™s Offi ce reached in September
2020 with the competitive
electric supplier, Starion Energy,
for using unfair and deceptive
sales tactics to lure more
than 100,000 Massachusetts
customers into expensive contracts
with high electricity rates.
In advance of this winterâ€™s rising
heating rates, AG Healey
launched a campaign in November
to educate residents about
the new and expanded programs
available to assist them in
paying their energy bills. As part
of the campaign, the AGâ€™s Offi ce
has reached out to communities
across the state to connect
them with resources and to urge
customers to contact their utility
company to learn about the
range of assistance programs
that they may qualify for, including
fl exible payment plans as
well as balance forgiveness programs.
For more information on
the available programs, see the
AGâ€™s resource fl yer that is available
in multiple languages.
The grant program will start
on Feb. 7, 2022 and run through
June 15, 2024. Interested applicants
can visit the AGâ€™s website,
www.mass.gov/ago/grants for
more information and for application
instructions. Questions
about the grant program can
be submitted by email to AGOGrants@mass.gov
by 5 p.m. on
Jan. 7, 2022. Applications must
be received by 5 p.m. on Jan.
14, 2022.
BBB warns against online puppy purchases
T
he demand for â€œquarantine
puppiesâ€ and other pets increased
during the COVID-19
pandemic, bringing with it a
spike in scams that has persisted
even as virus-related lockdowns
have abated. Online pet scams
â€“ in which an online search
ends with a would-be pet owner
paying hundreds of dollars
or more to adopt a pet that ultimately
doesnâ€™t exist â€“ are especially
pervasive during the holiday
season, when families might
be looking to add a furry family
member as a gift. The Better
Business Bureau (BBB) advises
extreme caution if shopping for
a pet online.
In addition to a shortage of
puppies available due to high
demand, earlier this year, the
U.S. Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC) suspended
imports of dogs to the
United States from countries
deemed at high risk of rabies.
The United States typically imports
one million dogs each
year and has since updated the
restrictions.
People currently shopping for
pets online are very likely to encounter
a scam listing in an online
ad or website. Knowing the
red flags associated with this
scam can help people avoid
heartache and loss of money.
Online shopping scam reports
to BBB Scam Tracker skyrocketed
during the COVID-19 pandemic,
and pet scams make up
35 percent of those reports in
2021. While pet scamâ€“related
reports are down slightly from
2020, they are expected to double
this year to those reported in
2019, and more than four times
as many were reported in 2017,
when BBB published its fi rst investigative
study about online
puppy scams.
Scammers frequently capitalize
on high demand during
the holidays by posting pictures
of pets in Christmas hats
and other gear. When a wouldbe
pet parent pursues the listing,
the scammer refuses to let
the consumer meet the pet before
buying â€“ often claiming
COVID-19 considerations. The
scammer claims that the buyer
must use a pet delivery agency
of some kind, often an airline.
BBB Scam Tracker has received
many reports of fake web pages
impersonating real businesses
for this purpose. The scammer
also might demand fees for
vaccinations or other last-minute
â€œneeds.â€ Ultimately, the pet
does not exist, and the consumer
has lost money and emotional
investment.
The largest group of victims
by age are those 25-35, followed
by those 35-44. The average fi -
nancial loss reported to BBB
Scam Tracker was $1,088. While
82 percent of pet scam reports
involved dogs, other reports included
cats, birds and iguanas.
The tactics used in pet scams
continue to evolve. Scammers
increasingly ask for payment
through untraceable cash apps,
such as Zelle, Google Pay, Cash
App, Venmo and Apple Pay. A review
of BBB Scam Tracker data
finds that most reports listed
Zelle as the payment method
involving the purchase of online
pets.
Pet scams are a worldwide
problem, with the United Kingdom
and Australia reporting
large increases in pet scam complaints
in 2020 and 2021. Many
pet scams originate in Cameroon,
according to data from
Petscams.com, which tracks and
catalogues puppy scams.
Law enforcement agencies in
the United States and abroad
have worked to apprehend pet
scammers. In December 2020,
the U.S. Department of Justice
announced criminal charges
against a Cameroonian national
living in Romania; among other
tactics, the suspect had claimed
the pets he was selling had COVID-19,
and he required would-be
buyers to purchase a â€œvaccine
guarantee document.â€
The BBB has issued the following
recommendations for buying
pets online:
See the pet in person before
paying any money. Consider a
video call with the seller if there
are concerns about meeting in
person because of the COVID-19
pandemic. This way, you can see
the seller and the actual pet for
sale. More often than not, scammers
wonâ€™t comply with the request,
and it helps avoid a scam.
Conduct a reverse image
search of the photo of the
pet and search for a distinctive
phrase in the description.
Research the breed to get
a sense of a fair price you
are considering. Think twice if
someone advertises a purebred
dog for free or at a deeply discounted
price â€¦ it could be a
fraudulent off er.
Check out a local animal
shelter for pets to meet in person
before adopting.
