Adding more to those traffi c concerns is a recent meeting that occurred in East Boston where local residents were told that all traffi c for the Suff olk Downs Summer Concert Series would be diverted to the Revere entrances of Suff olk Downs. I find this deeply disturbing considering the City Council has had no contact with the leaders of this programming and had to fi nd this out second hand.

Still, a recent incident on Oak Island had city councillors concerned enough to request a report from the Water & Sewer Department about the status and operational integrity of the city’s hydrant system. Councillor-at-Large Dan Rizzo said the request for information was not intended to imply that Water Department crews weren’t doing their job. “No one wants to go down in a hole when it’s 10 degrees below zero on a December night to fi x a leaking pipe,†said Rizzo, who added that the Water Department does a top-notch job and it’s a small department with a lot of responsibility. Water & Sewer Dept. Superintendent Don Ciaramella explained that the problem was not with the hydrants but rather with the pipes that feed them. “If you open multiple hydrants on one six-inch line, you’re not going to get much water pressure,†said Ciaramella, who added that the main lines need to be upsized and work is being done on that. Ciaramella showed the council a section of pipe from Avon Street that was so clogged it was impossible to look through it. The problem is the water main projects and funding, said Ciaramella. “I think we have the hydrants well under control.†This year, so far, the department has inspected 403 hydrants. Ciaramella said six of those hydrants are out of service, 29 have been replaced and 21 are going out to bid. Ward 5 City Councillor John Powers said getting water through the six-inch pipes was a chronic problem that goes back 40, 50, 60 years. “Lines were neglected. You’re making progress getting these lines corrected,†Powers told Ciaramella.

I consider it a privilege to be part of that process during this important time in the City’s history.†In performing additional duties as Chief of Staff while continuing her role as Chief of Talent and Culture, Claudia will extend her capabilities and leadership skills across the full breadth of municipal government, working with all departments and staff toward an effective City Hall that represents the best of the City of Revere.

Throughout her time in the City of Revere, Claudia has worked to proactively create equitable, diverse and accessible systems to better support Revere’s residents and employees. With the Human Resources team, Claudia also implemented new ways to better respond to new and current employees’ needs. Not only has she created innovative ways to retain employees, but she has also revamped and updated job descriptions and expanded to new platforms to attract a broader and more diverse pool of candidates to the city. Prior to joining the City of Revere, Claudia worked for the City of Boston and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, where she held roles that allowed her to interact with residents, stakeholders, diverse organizations, and municipal and state departments, giving her the opportunity to learn the ins and outs of city and state services, and the many ways they can be made more accessible to residents. Claudia and her family are Revere residents, and she’s also a proud mother of two raising her children in Revere. “I am eager to continue to support City Departments, its employees, Acting Mayor Keefe, elected offi cials, and especially the residents of Revere and local partners, to make sure everyone has equal and feasible access to City Services,†said Correa.

According to Serino, he was told by staff in the city’s economic development offi ce that Amazon is not in a position to announce when the facility will be put into service but that it will be before 2026. Serino added that he was told Revere could have confi dence that the Squire Road site was in the works and that other Amazon sites are shutting down. Also, Amazon owns the Squire Road site rather than leasing it, which demonstrates an additional level of commitment. For now, the company is attending to the maintenance and security needs of the site. “We have a giant warehouse Gerry D’Ambrosio Attorney-at-Law Is Your Estate in Order?

I fi nd it unacceptable they are going to have it lie vacant until 2026,†said Serino, who added that the site is an eyesore in the neighborhood and it’s unacceptable that Amazon isn’t saying when they intend to open it. Councillor-at-Large Anthony Zambuto, like Serino and other councillors, said he bought into the hype that Amazon was going to create jobs, register vehicles and generate tax revenue. “Now, we’re being told that maybe it will open before 2026. Are you kidding me? It’s insulting, it’s disgusting. We were snookered.†Ward 3 City Councillor Anthony Cogliandro noted that the Squire Road facility was listed as a revenue source for the new high school. “I hope it’s way before 2026,†he added. Councillors voted unanimously to request an update from the Mayor’s Offi ce. Councillors seek MBTA response to moving Satter House bus stop By Barbara Taormina L ate last year, Ward 6 Councillor Richard Serino wrote a letter to the MBTA, on behalf of the full City Council, insisting that the bus stop for the 411 route at the Jack Satter House on Revere Beach Boulevard remain in place as the transit authority updated stops and schedules to make service more equitable for those who depend on public transportation. There was no response to the letter or acknowledgement that it was received. More recently, Ward 2 Councillor Ira Novoselsky, who has breakfast at the same place as many of the residents of Jack Satter House, heard about the change, which he thought was a misguided idea that had been dropped. He circulated a petition and gathered more than SAFETY | FROM Page 1 last year so we’re headed in the right direction. But we still have a long way to go,†said Kelly. Kelly also showed the committee a slide that detailed 76 incidents of students being suspended from school. There were 262 incidents that involved disciplinary responses for a range of behaviors. Committee members focused on 11 incidents involving illegal substances and 58 fi ghts. They did not respond to the 20 incidents of students having a weapon or fi rearm in school. Kelly instead pointed to the highest category that triggered discipline, which was non-drug, nonviolent and noncriminal behavior. She explained that category typically involved students not being in a class, or being insubordinate to a teacher or administrator. Ward 3 Councillor Anthony Cogliandro said he is concerned about teachers, many of whom are leaving Revere 100 signatures of those opposed to the change, but change still seems to be coming. “Making people walk 1,500 feet down the street to a bus stop on the other side of a busy roadway – and walk, not even walk – many of these people are in wheelchairs or have walkers. It’s ridiculous,†said Novoselsky. Councillor-at-Large Dan Rizzo attended MBTA meetings when changes to stops and schedules were on the agenda. “We made it clear we wanted to keep that bus stop,†said Rizzo. This week, Councillor-at-Large Gerry Visconti fi led a motion to have Acting Mayor Patrick Keefe request the community development director and a representative from the MBTA to appear before the council to discuss the removal of the 411 bus stop. “I heard this was actually this year. Cogliandro read an email from one teacher who described Revere High as a horrible place to work. The teacher went on to say there is no attendance policy, no cell phone policy, no consistent discipline and that teachers feel devalued and bullied. “I’ve had family members who have been mistreated,†said Cogliandro, who added that he left teaching because a child wanted to fi ght with him. Councillor-at-Large Gerry Visconti, who also serves on the Public Safety Subcommittee, said there are questions among parents about student safety. Visconti said one mother sent him fi ve diff erent videos of fi ghts in the corridors of the high school with groups of 15 to 20 kids standing by watching. “What’s being done?†asked Visconti. “What are the disciplinary actions?†Kelly said 58 students fi ghting doesn’t mean 58 fights. “You have to cut the number in half,†she said, adding that out of school suspensions are up this year. “We don’t always have the information so we can address [a fi ght)†she added. “When we can, we address those students, connect them with the SRO offi cer and suspend them from school.†Visconti also asked about school bathrooms, adding that he has heard some students won’t even use the bathrooms because other students are congregating, smoking and vaping. Kelly said there are now bathroom monitors who keep students moving. The district has also increased its security staff and hired additional counselors and spehappening,†said Visconti, who, like other city offi cials, thought removing the bus stop was a bad idea that had faded away. “This has raised concerns among residents and is the reason our seniors feel they are being left behind,†he added. Ward 5 Councillor John Powers who helped raise the funding to install the bus stop shelter, also stressed the importance of keeping the stop for the safety of residents. Serino said the situation reminded him of the adage “You can’t fi ght City Hall.†“What’s frustrating is in this case even City Hall can’t fi ght City Hall,†he said. Councillors voted to support Visconti’s motion and welcomed the chance to talk directly with an MBTA offi cial. “We want to reaffi rm our position,†said Visconti. cialists to work with students. Kelly said the challenges with funding have eased somewhat thanks to dollars from the Student Opportunity Act. Rizzo mentioned that the number of students looking to transfer to the vocational school has risen dramatically. “And it’s not because they want to learn a trade,†he said. “We have to turn this around.†School Resource Offi cer Internicola focused on phones and vapes as challenges with student behavior. He said parents need to be aware of what their kids are carrying to school. However, he also said the problems at the high school are not unique to Revere. He recently attended a safety conference of school resource offi cers, and conversations focused on the same problems. Kelly also brought good news to the meeting. Enrollment in AP classes is up, nearly 60 percent of Revere students go on to higher education, and the honors program is more accessible to students and drawing in more participants. Visconti praised Revere teachers and students and stressed there was no intention to paint Revere High with a broad negative brush. He even chuckled slightly and mentioned The Nutrons, the RHS Robotics teams waiting in the wings to receive commendations from the City Council for placing second globally in the First World Championship. Committee members said they hoped to ease any community concerns, assure teachers that they are respected and valued and help continue the city’s tradition of exceptional education. ׉ Ú7cassandra://155lCeP84P8JJ2rC-nOKlMVdVNRuJ4Sl-_OcOcuGdo4Í)äÍ`Ì°Í×doÇ%r+ÿ`¿ZP׉EÚÃTHE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, MAY 26, 2023 Page 5 Planning Board Member recognized in Washington, D.C.

John’s Preparatory School held its 113th Commencement exercises on Saturday morning: Head of School Edward P. Hardiman, Ph.D. conferred diplomas upon 272 seniors during an outdoor ceremony held on the school’s campus. In all, this year’s seniors represented 50 cities and towns across the Commonwealth, including Revere’s Santiago Quiceno. St. John’s graduating class endured a global pandemic that began halfway through their freshman year and had its final months on campus marred by unthinkable personal tragedy for an entire Prep family this past February. Not surprisingly, featured speakers – students and dignitaries alike – quickly put aside pomp and circumstance. Instead, both collectively and distinctively, they emphatically declared that each of us, all of us, must be accountable to one another to ensure that a just and peaceful world is SANTIAGO QUICENO Revere resident part of our future. In his valedictory address, Jonathan R. Rodriguez of Lawrence, the son of a father who immigrated from Puerto Rico and a mother who immigrated from the Dominican Republic, urged graduates to shape their future in a manner that pays tribute to and creates avenues for both those who got them to this point, and those who will follow. In his remarks, Dr. Hardiman P’19 ’21 ’26 implored them to be forthright and true to their convictions, but to remain vigilant about a universal truth: Words matter, and more often than not, actions speak louder than words. Introduced by Belanger, the 2023 Commencement student-selected keynote speaker was retiring social studies teacher Bill Britton, who served as a Marine Corps tank commander during the Vietnam War followed by a successful career in business before coming to St. John’s 25 years ago. An Atkinson, N.H. resident, he delivered a stirring address framed by the concept of honor and leadership, adapted from his military service. Founded on the Xaverian values of compassion, humility, simplicity, trust and zeal, St. John’s educates students from 90 communities to be, do and stand for good in the world.

Turco announces acceptance of applications for unpaid summer internships at the Mass. State House WINTHROP, Mass. – Representative Jeff rey Turco is pleased to announce he is accepting applications for unpaid summer internships at the Massachusetts State House. A House of Representatives internship is an opportunity to work in the historic Massachusetts State House and an opportunity to participate in the inner workings of Massachusetts state government. This internship program is designed to give high school and college age students the opportunity to have a benefi cial educational internship that will add to their portfolio for college applications as well as help the community by assisting in projects that are in the works. Interns will JEFFREY TURCO State Representative work alongside the Representative and his team surrounding current pressing topics and issues. Each intern will have an independent project to take away with them and use as a sample of their work for future endeavors. “As a former State House intern myself, I am pleased to be able to pay it forward and give students of Revere the opportunity to participate in this important program. The work can be challenging but it is also rewarding and will assist the intern with his or her future career goals. I hope to give them tools and knowledge that will help them as they embark on their journey through school and into a career,†said Representative Jeff rey Rosario Turco (D-Winthrop). Interested candidates should send a letter of interest or any questions to Jeff rey.Turco@mahouse.gov by June 5, 2023. Community Matters C ommunity is a word that means many things to many people. It can range from a generations-long bond of local family and friends to a newly formed community of new residents from a close-by town or state or from other countries around the world. But in all those instances, community could and should mean coming together for the greater good. Since our earliest brainstorming meetings in the early 2000s, to our offi cial establishment several years later and beyond, The Beachmont Improvement Committee was, is and will always strive to not only be a part of bettering our own neighborhood community, but also to be a positive force in the larger community of Revere and Massachusetts. We’ve seen a lot of changes over these years. We have, with cooperation, hard work and activism from BIC members, city leaders and countless other helpers, achieved a lot. These past few years have been a struggle for everyone, including our group. We are now fortunate enough to again host regular monthly meetings, while we are also constantly looking for new ways to evolve in this new reality. We want to encourage new participation from our neighborhood community, as well as the Revere community as a whole. There have been many major changes in Revere over the past several years and there are many more to come that will impact not only the Beachmont area but the city as a whole. Our work has just begun. We want to reassert our mission to improve our neighborhood community for everyone in it, as well as to be part of the Everett Aluminum 10 Everett Ave., Everett 617-389-3839 “Same name, phone number & address for over half a century.

(Photo courtesy of the Zonta Club) ~ THINKING OUT LOUD ~ Time For Democrats To Cut All The Malarkey Over Debt Ceiling By Sal Giarratani T he drama over the debt ceiling crisis isn’t anything new because Democrats play the same song year after year. Democrats obviously don’t care about the rising debt or they would have gotten serious about it years ago. Let me tell you this about the debt ceiling and never-ending spending. Let’s cut the BLANK. If you were part of a family that spent more money than it had and you were continually using a credit card to pay for everything, that’s not a smart thing to do. The credit card company would stop you from continually using your credit card going forward. You can’t borrow what you can’t pay back. The government has its own rules. They can continue to spend and borrow as much as they say they need. Government can’t stop spending. It isn’t in its nature. So, we get a debt crisis and the government’s answer is just to keep raising the debt ceiling to meet its spending goals. This is where we all need to start from period. Democrats are paying fast and loose with our ever-growing debt. Listen to how they explain things: “Raising the debt limit would not authorize any new spending but would allow the U. S. government to meet its fi scal obligations already approved by Congress and signed into law by the president.†All the above is true but nothing will change the ongoing continued spending of money we don’t have until we start cutting chunks of our spending that keeps pushing us further and further into the rabbit hole of debt. On this matter, the Republican response is the right one to make. Lifting the debt ceiling necessitates preconditions that attack the root causes of this crisis, which is spending money like a drunken sailor on shore leave. I hate using such an analogy. I had an uncle who served in the Navy in World War II, but unless we deal with the tough economics of the situation, nothing will ever change and eventually, our national debt could continue to grow higher and higher. Without real spending cuts, the whole idea of a debt ceiling would be useless. Why have a ceiling at all for that matter? Just keep spending and spending, forcing our nation into a recession or worse, a depression. Last week, Democrat hacks gathered on the Boston Common waving placards that read “NO MAGAfactured DEFAULT CRISIS.†Democrat Whip Katherine Clark whipped up the crowd by saying Republicans “have ‘decided to take our country and our economy hostage’ with proposed cuts to a wide range of programs†(full quote from the Boston Herald). When Democrats in the US Capitol aren’t blaming the Republicans for everything out there, they call them intransigent and, as one protester at the rally put it, “Republicans are extreme and don’t care about anything other than their own power.†Oh, it is all about power, and the very fact many Democrats are pushing President Biden to use the 14th amendment to go around the Republican-led House and ram a higher debt ceiling on his own power says everything we need to know about all that “democracy is at stake†hypocrisy that Dems like U.S. Rep. Katherine Clark seem to support ending the stalemate with Republican lawmakers over reasonable comprises. James Cantwell from U.S. Sen. Edward Markey’s offi ce says, “Republicans aren’t serious about fi nding a solution [to the debt crisis].†One could just as easily say the same thing about the Democrats, too. The American people are fed up being fed all this malarkey. I know this American is.

Mills Point of Pines TRUST INCOME TAX RETURNS n the context of estate planning/Medicaid planning, whether you are executing revocable trusts or irrevocable trusts, it is good to know some of the basics of the income tax fi ling requirements. In the event you have executed a revocable Trust, it will be treated as a grantor-type trust and no separate tax return will be required to be fi led. If you open up a bank account or an investment account in the name of such a trust, you can have the bank or fi nancial institution simply use your social security number for 1099 reporting purposes. If you, as the Settlor of such a revocable Trust, were to die, at that point in time the trust would become irrevocable and would no longer be classifi ed as a grantor-type trust. In such an event, if the trust generates income, whether interest, dividend, capital gain income, or net rental income from investment real estate, then a separate Trust tax return would need to be fi led. Furthermore, the Trustee would have to fi le for a federal ID number with the IRS. If the Trust does not distribute its income, it will have to pay taxes at the Trust level. The highest tax bracket for Trusts of 37 percent starts at only $13,450 in taxable income. Therefore, it is often more desirable to distribute the income to the income benefi ciaries in order to claim an income distribution deduction at the Trust level to zero out the taxable income. The income will then be taxed to the income benefi ciaries who actually received the distribution on their individual income tax returns. For the 2022 calendar year, the 22 percent tax bracket for a married couple does not begin until taxable income is $83,550. The 37 percent tax bracket for the same couple does not begin until taxable income is $647,850.

Mills With a Medicaid irrevocable Trust executed for asset protection purposes, a tax return would have to be fi led by the Trust under its federal ID number. The Trust should be drafted in such a way as to be treated as a grantor-type Trust. If this Trust is generating taxable income, there would then be a grantor letter issued to the Settlor/Grantor/Trustor of the Trust in order for that person to report the items of income on his or her individual income tax return. Since the irrevocable Trust is drafted to be treated as a grantor-type Trust, it does not matter if interest income, dividend income, capital gain income or net rental income is actually distributed to the income benefi ciary. Those items of income will pass through to the income benefi - ciaries of the Trust via the grantor letter and will be reported on their Form 1040. The Trust will not be paying the income taxes on the income it generates. Upon the death of the Settlor of the irrevocable Trust, the Trust will no longer be treated as a grantor-type Trust. Consequently, any net income generated by the Trust will be taxed at higher Trust income tax rates unless the net income is actually distributed to the income benefi ciaries. Navigating the tax rules pertaining to revocable and irrevocable Trusts can be challenging to say the least. Joseph D.

Ten wins pretty much assures teams of a spot in the playoff s, and Revere had to score a win over Boston Latin on Wednesday and on the road at Gloucester on Saturday. The three defeats that dropped the Patriots to 8-10 were all close, down-to-the-wire battles in which they came up just short. On Monday, Revere rallied in the seventh before the potential tying run was thrown out at the plate to end a 5-4 Senior Day loss to Malden Catholic. Losses to Lynn English, 13-10 in eight innings, last Friday and Somerville, 3-2, last Wednesday consisted of similar scenarios.

For many older adults, like yourself, toenails can become thicker and harder to cut, and reduced fl exibility can make it more diffi - cult to even get into the right position to cut them. Fortunately, there are solutions available that can make this job a little easier. One of the simplest tricks for cutting thick toenails is to simply take a bath or shower, or soak your feet in warm water, prior to cutting them. The water helps soften them for easier cutting.

Last Wednesday’s loss to Somerville was more of the same. The Patriots got a stellar complete-game eff ort from ace righty Kyle Cummings (no earned runs). They loaded the bases in the bottom of the seventh before a line drive turned into an out to end the game in Somerville’s favor. creams you can buy, like “Miracle of Aloe Toenail Soft†and “Barielle Toenail Softening Cream,†that temporarily softens thick, hard nails. Just rub it into your toenails at bedtime and in the morning, they’ll be easier to cut and fi le. Most people’s toenails grow about 1/16 inch per month, so it’s appropriate to cut them every six to eight weeks. When cutting nails, take care not to cut too far down. Overaggressive trimming and cutting the toenails too short can lead to ingrown toenails. Podiatrists typically recommend leaving a very small bit (about 1/32 inch) of nail past the nail bed when trimming. You may also want to avoid a rounded cut. It’s best to cut the nails fairly straight across, ensuring that the corners of the nail do not cut into the skin folds of the toe. And use an emery board to smooth the jagged edges and corners that can snag and potentially tear the nail as it grows. Top Toenail Clippers There are a number of medicalgrade or specialty toenail clippers recommended by professionals for older adults. For thick nails the “New Huing Podiatrist Toenail Clippers†is a top option. This clipper has a sharp, curved blade that easily cuts through any toenail, no matter how hard or thick it has gotten, and a nonslip, cushion grip that allows for comfortable clipping. For those with limited mobility, check out the “Clipperpro Omega Select Toenail Clipper,†which has a long plastic grip that’s much larger than that of a standard set of nail clippers and a blade head that swivels 180 degrees. Both of those features make this clipper much easier to use for anyone with arthritis or mobility issues, since they have more control and an added range they can reach. And for people who have a hard time bending over, there are long handled toenail clippers like the “DriFeez Long Handle Toenail Clippers†which come in four sizes – 20, 24, 28 and 32 inches long. It also has a heavy-duty clipper with a 1/8-inch-wide jaw opening designed to cut thick toenails. All of these clippers are available online at sites like Amazon. com or Walmart.com at prices ranging between $10 and $40. Toenail Trimming Services If you get to the point that you can’t, or would rather not cut your own toenails, a podiatrist can provide both foot and toenail care. But be aware that routine foot care is not covered by Medicare unless you have an underlying condition or injury that requires a professional to tend to your feet. If you are generally in good health, regular pedicures at a nail salon is good option for getting your toenails cut and is much cheaper than visiting a podiatrist.

Vitale Memorial Fund continues legacy, 38 years later awarding scholarships to local high school students O n Saturday, June 17, local high school students from Saugus, Revere and some surrounding communities will be awarded scholarships at a gathering including their families at the Offi cer Harold L. Vitale Memorial Park on Ballard Street in Saugus – near the 38th anniversary date of the late offi cer’s ultimate sacrifi ce, (E.O.W. June 18, 1985). All of the 2023 recipients will be announced in just a few days; a partial list of awards includes local student Hebat S. Elkacemi. “We are excited to be able to host our annual scholarships awards ceremony … near the anniversary date of his ultimate sacrifi ce, June 18. The event allows us an opportunity to meet deserving students and their families,†said Les Vitale, brother of the late offi cer. “For over 30 years we’ve hosted the ceremony at the Memorial Park named after Harold to honor his life and reflect on his years of service and sacrifi ce.†Dick Vitale said, “The cost of a secondary education is soaring and continues to be a challenge for students and their families further compounded by things like the Covid outbreak, a struggling economy, rising interest rates and a shaky stock market. By providing scholarships serves to cover a small part of the students’ overall costs.†He went on to say, “This day provides us a great sense of pride and allows us to spend time at the Park named after Harold here in Saugus where Harold worked protecting the community and where we experience the continued support of Town offi cials, members in public safety and enjoy the day with the Saugus community.†Bob Vitale, a retired Transit Police Offi cer, went on to say, “Hosting this event around Father’s Day is great and is the time of year when families typically make time to celebrate milestones like high school graduations and the college acceptance decisions.†He added, “On top of that June 14th is Flag Day and is Harold’s birthday, so it’s a special day for us though it’s hard to believe 38 years have passed and we’re still hosting this event.†Niece and nephew Victoria Vitale-Bingham and her brother Nicholas Vitale also spoke. “Uncle Harold would have turned 80 so it’s pretty cool knowing we’ve been handing out these scholarships during our entire adult lives for over 30 years now. Even though we grew up without having him around us, this Reception and our August charity golf outing allowed us to get to know him and be part of turning a tragedy into a sense of pride and lets us stop to recognize the police offi cers like him for their service to the community,†said Victoria. Nick Vitale added, “we’ve gotten to meet some of his retired co-workers over the years and hear some great stories about him, and we’ve even gotten to know some of the current members of the Department that stop by every year to pay their respects. They have a tough job, so we’re proud to show our support and respect them for walking the Thin Blue Line every day.†Eileen Vitale, wife of the late officer remarked, “June 18th will always be a tough day for me to get through, but I love all that we do to remember Harold. The Memorial Park Reception, giving scholarships and our annual golf tournament are good days for me. Our charity work allows us to continue supporting victims’ advocacy programs of some great organizations that helped me get through the diffi cult times like the National and NE C.O.P.S. (National Concerns of Police Survivors and N.E. C.O.P.S.) and the N.L.E.O.M.F. (National Law Enforcement Offi cers Memorial Fund). They are amazing organizations who helped us out back in 1985 and we stay involved and give back to them with our support to this day.†The Officer Harold L. Vitale Memorial Fund, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) organization and was created in 1992 some seven years after his death. Offi cer Vitale was killed in the line of duty in the early morning hours of June 18, 1985, while attempting to make an arrest, when he was dragged over 1,000 feet to his death. Offi cer Vitale was 42 at the time and married to his wife Eileen, and they lived in Ipswich with three children: Paul, Michelle and JacLyn. Offi cer Vitale’s badge #17 was retired upon his death. The Offi cer Vitale Memorial Park was constructed by the Town of Saugus in 1992 in his honor. The Memorial Fund Annual Golf Tournament will be held once again on the fi rst Monday in August (August 8) at Ipswich Country Club – for the 28th time.

Jeff Turco $1,207.09 $1,910.59 ALSO UP ON BEACON HILL – The following bills were the subject of public hearings this week: AIRLANES AND LASER POINTERS (H 1287) – Would impose a $5,000 fi ne and/or fi ve-year prison sentence on anyone who directs a laser pointer at an aircraft or operates an unmanned aerial vehicle within the fl ight path of an aircraft. “Aiming a laser pointer at an Denise Matarazzo 617-953-3023 617-294-1041 aircraft is called lasing and can cause temporary blindness and confusion to pilots as they attempt to descend towards a landing strip,†said sponsor Rep. Bruce Ayers (D-Quincy). “Statistics show that lasing is on the rise, with over 9,500 cases reported in 2022. With over 375,000 fl ights out of Logan Airport each year, carrying over 35 million passengers, lasing poses a serious public safety risk to pilots, passengers and the community below. With the passage of this bill, we can set a strong precedent that this dubious behavior will not be tolerated and will carry serious consequences.†ELIMINATE THE $456 MINIMUM EXCISE TAX FOR CORPORATIONS (H 2842) – Would eliminate the $456 minimum excise tax for business corporations. “The corporate minimum excise tax holds small, newly created corporations to the same tax standards as large, multi-national corporations, regardless of whether they actually turn a profi t,†said House Minority Leader Brad Jones (R-North Reading). “Eliminating the minimum excise tax would provide assistance to many small businesses and encourage business formation in the commonwealth, which would have a positive impact on the state’s economy.†MEDICATION FOR MENTAL ILLNESS Would prohibit health plans from requiring prior authorization or step therapy for drugs prescribed to treat a serious mental illness. Step therapy requires the patient to try less expensive options before “stepping up†to drugs that may work better but cost more. Sponsor Sen. Jamie Eldridge (D-Acton) said this legislation will reduce restrictions for patients with serious mental illness and avoid costs in hospital visits and incarceration. He noted that untreated or poorly treated serious mental illnesses can lead to increased risks of homelessness and interaction with the judicial, legal and police systems. BURIAL FOR VETERANS (H 3517) – Would increase state reimbursement to families of veterans to cover the costs of burying the veterans. “This current threshold has not been changed or updated for years,†said sponsor Rep. Mike Kushmerek (D-Fitchburg). “The commonwealth of Massachusetts cares immensely about the treatment of veterans, as we are incredibly grateful for their service and sacrifi ces. For families with limited fi nances, this legislation would ensure that veterans are buried with the dignity and respect that they so deserve.†RAISE ALLOWANCE FOR NURSING HOME RESIDENTS (H 626) – Would raise the Personal Needs Allowance (PNA) for nursing home residents from the current $72.80 monthly to $100 monthly. It also would give the residents an annual cost of living increase. The PNA pays for expenses not covered by Medicaid for nursing BEACON | SEE Page 23 ׉ Ú7cassandra://BjL09sYZcIUGEIhj0OVWiPSkJHQbLXtn5J0sSXoWg6sÍ*Í`Ì°Í×doÇ%r+ÿ`¿Zb׉EÚ$GTHE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, MAY 26, 2023 Page 23 Copyrighted material previously published in Banker & Tradesman/The Commercial Record, a weekly trade newspaper.

Supporters say that the money, half of which is reimbursed with federal dollars, helps residents pay for clothing, shoes, phone calls, medicine, transportation, haircuts and other personal needs which help them maintain their dignity and well-being. They noted the $72.80 monthly allowance has not been raised in 20 years. “Increasing the allowance to $100 would modernize the policy and allow residents of longterm care facilities increased independence with this simple solution,†said sponsor Rep.

The proponent’s goal here is to protect elected offi cials in power by limiting the ability for the public to speak up.

HOW LONG WAS LAST WEEK’S SESSION? Beacon Hill Roll Call tracks the length of time that the House and enate were in session each week. Many legislators say that legislative sessions are only one aspect of the Legislature’s job and that a lot of important work is done outside of the House and Senate chambers. They note that their jobs also involve committee work, research, constituent work and other matters that are important to their districts. Critics say that the Legislature does not meet regularly or long enough to debate and vote in public view on the thousands of pieces of legislation that have been fi led.
