CIGAR 170 REVERE ST., REVERE (781) 289-4959 T crowd of residents from the Riverside neighborhood met with city offi cials to continue the ongoing discussion of the Gibson Park resiliency project at the Point of Pines Yacht Club on August 5. The meeting was hosted by the Revere Department of Planning & Community Development and Ward 5 Councillor Angela GuarinoSawaya. The sticking point for the comA munity remains the 6-foot-high vegetative berm along Mills Avenue that will protect the neighborhood from fl ooding and rising sea levels. But Riverside residents, led by Councillor Guarino-Sawaya, are opposed to the berm, which they say will limit their access to the waterfront and obstruct water views from their windows. Some families who have been in the neighborhood for generations said they are considering moving. Chief of Planning & Community Development Tom Skwierawski explained to the group Celebrating Our 52nd Year Chris 2024 that a stone berm planted with native plants is the only fl ood mitigation structure state environmental regulators will allow. The berm will slope up to the road and narrow it by several feet, another concern for residents. The slope design allows the berm to absorb the force of the ocean unlike the straightstanding sea wall that resists ocean strength and creates other problems. But Riverside residents who live with the waterfront and the landscape do not want to see that change to their neighborhood, and their way of life, despite the risk of fl ooding. The 11 access points to the water’s edge will be reduced to three maintenance access points and one guaranteed public access spot at the renovated community boatyard. There is funding available to upgrade the drainage system in and around Gibson Park to reduce fl ooding, but the money is tied to the installation of the berm. Residents questioned why the drainage improvements couldn’t come fi rst, which would allow planners to determine if the berm is necesAngela Guarino-Sawaya Ward 5 Councillor sary. Skwierawski said the berm is needed to protect residents and their homes from flooding which is increasing with climate change. Some residents said they had fl ood insurance and thus don’t need the berm. Skwierawski told residents to write to the state’s environmental agencies and explain in detail why they oppose the berm and prefer a seawall solution. He also promised the neighborhood that the city would maintain open discussions on the Gibson Park plan and they would be notifi ed of any changes or decisions. Disabilities Commission discuss wheelchair recovery plan All-Ability Day on Revere Beach this Saturday, Aug. 17 By Barbara Taormina he Commission on Disabilities spent their meeting this week discussing various state bills and eff orts of other municipal commissions that could potentially impact residents with disabilities. Working with others in the fi eld of disabilities allows them to unite and focus on services that would provide the most assistance to disabled people, services that don’t occur to ablebodied residents. This week they discussed the problem people in wheelchairs face when their chairs break down when they are out and about. They can call an ambulance to get home but their chairs, some of which are motorized and expensive, are often left behind. The Revere Commission proposed a service something like AAA that would pick up and transport broken chairs. Web accessibility and pay for personal care assistants are also topics on the commission’s agenda. At the end of the meeting, commission Chairman Ralph DeCicco announced he had accepted a job at the Massachusetts Offi ce of Disabilities as an access specialist. DiCicco said he will still stay on as chairman of the Revere commission. “ I’m still here for the residents of Revere, I just won’t be in city hall every day,†he said. The Commission on Disabilities is hosting an All-Ability Day on Revere Beach this Saturday, Aug. 17, that will highlight the inclusivity that has become part of Revere’s culture. Sponsored by the Parks & Recreation Department, Save the Harbor/Save the Bay and the Department of Conservation and Recreation, the event will feature sand and fl oating beach wheelchairs to allow disabled residents to enjoy the beach. The event runs from 10 am to 2 pm at the Oak Island Bathhouse, 462 Revere Beach Boulevard. Volunteers from the Recreation Department will help run the event and all are welcome. ׉ Ú7cassandra://0153In9BX-GxqvYUFpPHrLs8YrQQ8sjmVQmZTV5Hsy4Í/²Í`Ì°Í×f¾a®ñ*= ¯׉EÚ‰THE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, AUGUST 16, 2024 Page 3 Governor signs bill supporting police officers’ disability pensions and stress management for violent crimes H ouse Bill 4746, An Act relative to disability pensions and critical incident stress management for violent crimes, which was cosponsored by Representative Jessica Ann Giannino (DRevere), was signed into law by Governor Maura Healey on July 31, 2024, as Chapter 149 of the Acts of 2024. From the date of passage, this law provides a 100 percent regular compensation pension benefi t for police offi - cers who have suff ered a “Violent Act Injury, which is defi ned as “a serious and permanent personal bodily injury sustained as a direct and proximate result of a violent attack upon a person by means of a dangerous weapon, including a fi rearm, knife, automobile, explosive device or other dangerous weapon.†Representative Giannino stated, “By Governor Healey taking this step, we send a powerful message that we value the sacrifi ces made by those who serve on the front lines. As the daughter of a retired Police Sergeant, I know all too well the risks that our police offi cers face every day when they begin a shift. When I fi rst met with advocates to discuss this legislation, and they shared with me that their families would have been better off if they did not survive each accident, it stayed with me. No family or police offi cer should ever carry that burden. I am thankful for Speaker Mariano and his leadership getting this bill over the fi nish line.†Massachusetts Coalition of Police First Vice-President John E. Nelson stated, “The Massachusetts Coalition of Police started working on the Violent Crimes Disability Pension Bill with its original sponsor, the late Senator Ken Donnelly. There has been a lot of hard work put in by many people to get this important piece of legislation to the fi nish line. None of it would have been possible if not for the incredible work of Representative Jessica Giannino. Her eff orts in championing this bill through the legislature have been nothing short of amazing. Her compassion and understanding for law enforcement and our mission is unwavering. Our entire membership is grateful for Representative Giannino’s work on this and so many other bills. While we hope this new law does not have to be used often, it will help those who have sacrificed more than anyone will know.†“Our fi rst responders put their lives on the line every day to protect and serve our communities,†said State Senator Brendan Crighton. “These brave individuals should not have to worry about their fi nancial stability Jessica Giannino State Representative if they suff er a permanent injury due to an attack. I am proud that we have taken decisive action to support fi rst responders in Massachusetts by ensuring that they and their families have the fi nancial security they deserve.†When a police officer is involved in an incident where they have been injured so violently that they are no longer able to work, this law is in place to protect them and their family from financial hardship. Numerous communities in the Commonwealth have offi cers who have been very seriously injured during shootouts. The offi cers involved had to suff er fi nancially and toil for years in order to get their 100 percent pensions via special legislation, and some are still in the process. With this law, it will now be automatic for offi - cers and their families instead of having to go through the home rule process.

The project was highlighted by installing two eight-inch water mains on Bridge Street, which replaced an aging six-inch pipe at risk of failure underneath the MBTA commuter rail tracks. Mayor Patrick Keefe played a pivotal role in expediting a plan with the MBTA to complete this project, which had stalled since it was fi rst planned seven years ago. “There was a very small window to complete this project with the Commuter Rail track closure, and I wanted to ensure that the Oak Island neighborhood got the infrastructure they needed. I’m grateful to our partners at the DPW, Engineering, and the MBTA for working together to complete this project safely and on time.†The City of Revere installed 900 feet of ductile iron pipe encased in a protective steel Patrick Keefe Mayor sleeve to shield the water main from the vibrations and pressure of the commuter rail traffic. The addition of two eight-inch mains created a redundancy that increased water volume and enhanced fi re protection in the neighborhood, which was previously serviced by a single line. In total, three lines were installed: two new water lines and a new sewer line. Fire Chief Chris Bright spoke of his support of the City’s efforts, commenting, “The water I infrastructure improvements performed by the City of Revere W & S Department have been of tremendous value to our fi refi ghters and residents: replacing antiquated and undersized water lines with new functioning fi re hydrants that deliver the needed pressure and water volume has increased the safety factor.†Chief Bright noted that the water improvements would also make work for fi refi ghters more convenient and effective, cutting down on the need to shuttle water from long distances: “This improves public safety and the quality of life for everyone. On behalf of the fi re department, let me extend our gratitude for the commitment and outstanding work being performed by the Water & Sewer Department, with the support of Mayor Keefe.†The Oak Island project underscores the City’s commitment to improving water infrastructure and water quality.

The project team will work to design a creative and linguistically and culturally relevant heat communications campaign in partnership with community-based organizations, community liaisons, and local artists and designers. The heat resilience communications campaign will leverage existing work by the Mystic River Watershed Association, MAPC, and the Metropolitan Mayors Coalition, including lessons learned through Keeping Metro Boston Cool, the COVID-Safe Cooling program, COVID-19 communications, and other public health campaigns. “With extreme heat becoming increasingly frequent, MAPC’s leadership in heat resiliency is both timely and critical,†said Secretary Rebecca Tepper of the Executive Offi ce of Energy and Environmental Affairs. “These projects highlight the urgent need for innovative solutions and collaborative action. We’re proud to support this vital work, which is essential for creating a more resilient and adaptive future.†MAPC Principal Planner Sasha Shyduroff -Gutman added, “Over the long-term, the success of this project will be refl ected in the eff ective and ongoing mobilization of trusted messengers and municipal communication infrastructure to engage residents. Sustaining and expanding these eff orts will contribute to a reduction in climate-related health outcomes and disparities.†Through research completed with Wicked Hot Mystic [https:// resilient.mysticriver.org/wicked-hot-mystic], Chelsea, Everett, Malden, Revere, and Winthrop were identified as municipalities with urban heat islands up to 10 degrees Fahrenheit hotter than in the coolest parts of the watershed. Many communities living and working in urban heat islands are at increased risk of the health impacts of extreme heat and may lack the resources to adapt and prepare. “As our summers get longer and hotter, we need to prioritize expanding our public health capacity for communication and surveillance work. That is why receiving the ‘Lower Mystic Cool Communications to Build Regional Heat Resiliency’ MVP program Action Grant is so important,†said Lauren Buck RN, BSN, MPH, chief of health and human services and director of public health with the City of Revere. MAPC will work with researchers at the Boston University School of Public Health (BUSPH), including Professor Gregory Wellenius, director of the Center for Climate and Health at Boston University, who previously led an analysis fi nding a substantial number of excess deaths and emergency department visits on hot days that were not suffi ciently hot to trigger heat alerts. The team will obtain and analyze health data from the Massachusetts Center for Health Information Analysis to better understand the regional and local heat exposure thresholds that trigger adverse public health impacts in the focus communities. This analysis will inform the development of updated and regionally-specifi c heat thresholds, tailored to account for the disproportionate risks faced by priority populations like older adults, young children, and outdoor workers. “I am thrilled to partner with the MAPC on this essential project. Although the health risks from extreme heat are well known, this eff ort will help us better understand how heat risk varies from one neighborhood to another and take steps to better protect people in those communities that need help most,†said Professor Wellenius. The project will take a systems-based and communitydriven approach to building climate resilience to extreme heat by strengthening social connectedness and support networks among community members, organizations, and municipalities within the Lower MAPC | SEE Page 13 ׉ Ú7cassandra://xNoGqwzBLZkgESYmJQHaGvQJZWCP95bcGQM-FpWnZzsÍ-•Í`Ì°Í×f¾a®ñ*= ¯׉EÚ ŸTHE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, AUGUST 16, 2024 Page 7 Hebrew SeniorLife names Caren Silverlieb North Shore Regional Executive Director C aren Silverlieb has been named executive director for Hebrew SeniorLife’s Jack Satter House in Revere and for the North Shore region.

Create or Re-establish Routines: What time does the family sit down for dinner? When is homework time? What is the limit for screen time? When is “lights out†at night? What time do alarm clocks ring? The answers are important. Sticking to schedules can create consistency at home that may help your child feel more confi dent, secure and stable. 2. Schedule a Well-Child Visit: Think of a well-child visit as an opportunity to understand your child’s health needs better. Pediatricians can assess your child’s physical & emovere on Thursday, August 15 followed by a Mass at St. Anthony’s Church in Revere. Visitation was held on Wednesday. Interment Woodlawn Cemetery.

It’s also a great time to complete their school’s physical forms and to get current on immunizations. Ask your child’s doctor about what’s driving their physical development, such as diet, exercise and sleeping habits. Not sure what to ask? UnitedHealthcare offers a printable preventive care checklist. 3. Discuss Mental Health: Bringing up mental health can show your child that it’s okay to start those conversations and that they always have a support network they can rely on. If they do talk about being scared or nervous, validate their feelings. Help them feel secure and let them know it’s possible to feel better. These can be sensitive topics for your child, so knows Joan knows she was positive, encouraging, & always saw the silver lining in life’s challenges. Above all else, Joan loved her family. She adored her 3 children & loved & cared for her 6 grandchildren, as if they were her own kids. Joan was a strong Catholic & active participant in her family’s activities.

Focus on your child’s overall disposition — not just what they’re saying — and watch for warning signs of issues, such as persistent sadness, sudden mood changes, or sleep problems. 4. Help Develop Independence at Home: For younger kids entering preschool or kindergarten, encourage your child to dress themselves, use the bathroom without assistance, wash their hands and put on their shoes. Your child should know how to wipe their face after lunch and blow their nose without assistance. They should also be comfortable asking an adult for help when needed. ׉ Ú7cassandra://Pr2GkfYGpbcC6EtxsY7swiYdhxfLxZyAUZi_1KWvpSQÍ&Í`Ì°Í×f¾a®ñ*= ¯ ×f¾a®ñ*= ¯ Í P̀בC’טšÍ(Í€u׉œ“׉ Ú7cassandra://g-k3abw9EqVgt9d5G9lKxb3R77r71j7V9U8OwW-4Sx8Î %{Í`ÍœÍ)׉ Ú7cassandra://3CxlK4LJGpHmbgVesSC74TVCIoLY_3UZbhpJBQAqxjEÍ•ÈÍ`ÍJÍà׉ Ú7cassandra://r3__KNGsn-SddRVreUMK_NCpbR1Gru7A58nGUr9KZOkÍ%HÍ`Ì°Í×f¾a³ñ*= ¯;טšÍ(Í(Í€u׉œ“׉ Ú7cassandra://RN8pLlBqEHSKWJ5MJvfbVYg-J8C-yH69TvWhoV8EE0gÎ ‚OÍ`ÍœÍ)׉ Ú7cassandra://SN91eM1pJpDvDH0mXNEuI85psk5FLrL4enaMjX837pEÍ•ªÍ`ÍJÍà׉ Ú7cassandra://fA0GbycN07r-fjtX25U54Sbt1xuytWWL6RI0_5vD55sÍ%SÍ`Ì°Í×f¾a³ñ*= ¯<“× ×f¾a´ñ*= ¯CÍžÍ̇9×H¶http://SavvySenior.org× × Ј× ×f¾a´ñ*= ¯BÍ `ÍÓÌ­9×H¼http://NCOA.org/adviser/walk× × Ј× ×f¾a´ñ*= ¯AÍdÍ¥:9×H¯http://ilru.org× × Ј׉EÚ&Page 14 THE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, AUGUST 16, 2024 By Bob Katzen If you have any questions about this week’s report, e-mail us at bob@beaconhillrollcall.com or call us at (617) 720-1562 GET A FREE SUBSCRIPTION TO MASSTERLIST — Join more than 22,000 people, from movers and shakers to political junkies and interested citizens, who start their weekday morning with MASSterList—the popular newsletter that chronicles news and informed analysis about what’s going on up on Beacon Hill, in Massachusetts politics, policy, media and infl uence.

Maura Healey signed into law a housing bill that would authorize $5.1 billion in borrowing to spur housing production in the Bay State. Supporters said the package makes crucial policy changes with the goal of building new housing, accelerating the rehabilitation of existing housing, reducing barriers to development and promoting aff ordable housing. They noted that key provisions include allowing accessory dwelling units, investment in modernizing the state’s public housing system, boosts to programs that support fi rst-time homebuyers and homeownership, incentives to build more housing for low to moderate-income residents, support for the conversion of vacant commercial space to housing and support for sustainable and green housing initiatives. “The Aff ordable Homes Act creates homes for every kind of household, at every stage of life and unlocks the potential in our neighborhoods,†said Gov. Healey. “Today we are taking an unprecedented step forward in building a stronger Massachusetts where everyone can afford to live.†“The Aff ordable Homes Act is the fi rst, major critical step needed in addressing our housing crisis,†said Rep. James Arciero (D-Littleton), House Chair of the Committee on Housing. “It reduces barriers for individuals seeking aff ordable home options, increases housing production and inventory and creates more tools in the toolbox to help cities and towns off er more aff ordable housing options. This encompassing bill showcases critical input from our state and local officials, community stakeholders, advocates and residents.†“If Massachusetts leaders declare ‘Mission Accomplished’ on the housing crisis, they’ll be abandoning millions of Massachusetts residents to a broken housing market that is driving families into homelessness and pushing workers out of our state,†said Carolyn Chou, Director of Homes for All Mass. “The housing bond bill includes meaningful funding to support public housing and build new aff ordable housing, but legislators failed to include any tools to help renters who are facing enormous rent hikes and eviction today.†“Passing a major massive, complicated measure like this without even an abbreviated opportunity to read what was in the bill was not something I was willing to embrace,†said Rep. Matt Muratore (R-Plymouth). “This bill was passed on August 1st around 9 a.m. after being in session since July 31st at noon. We had very little time to review.†(A “Yes†vote is for the bill. A “No†vote is against it.) Rep. Jessica Giannino Yes Rep. Jeff Turco Yes Sen. Lydia Edwards Yes $1.5 MILLION FOR WATER AND SEWER RELIEF (H 4800) House 155-2, overrode Gov. Healey’s veto of the entire $1.5 million for the Massachusetts Sewer Rate Relief Fund which was established in 1993 to help reduce the rising costs of sewer services in the Bay State. The Senate did not act on the veto so the veto stands and the $1.5 million was eliminated. “I am vetoing this item to an amount consistent with my House [budget] recommendation,†said Gov. Healey. (A “Yes†vote is for the $1.5 million. A “No†vote is against it.) Rep. Jessica Giannino Yes Rep. Jeff Turco Yes $800,000 FOR DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE FOOD PROGRAMS (H 4800) House 155-2, overrode Gov. Healey’s veto of $800,000 (reducing funding from $12.7 million to $11.9 million) for the Department of Agriculture. The veto includes cuts of $100,000 from the Massachusetts Food Trust Program; another $100,000 from the Buy Local effort; and the entire $250,000 for local food policy councils. The Senate did not act on the veto so the veto stands and the $800,000 was eliminated. “I am reducing this item to the amount projected to be necessary,†said Gov. Healey. “I am reducing two earmarks to amounts more consistent with my House [budget] recommendation and eliminating one program earmark that was intended to be a one-year program. (A “Yes†vote is for the $800,000. A “No†vote is against it.) Rep. Jessica Giannino Yes Rep. Jeff Turco Yes $5 MILLION FOR FOOD SECURITY (H 4800) House 155-2, overrode Gov. Healey’s veto of $5 million (reducing funding from $10 million to $5 million) for the Food Security Infrastructure Grant Program which was created to ensure that individuals and families have access to food, especially food that is produced locally, and equitable access to food. The program also seeks to ensure that farmers, fi sherman and other local food producers are better connected to a strong, resilient food system to help mitigate future food supply and distribution disruption. The Senate did not act on the veto so the veto stands and the $5 million was eliminated. “I am reducing this item to the amount projected to be necessary due to the availability of alternative resources,†said Gov. Healey. (A “Yes†vote is for the $5 million. A “No†vote is against it.) Rep. Jessica Giannino Yes Rep. Jeff Turco Yes DISABILITY PENSION FOR POLICE OFFICERS (S 2887) Senate 40-0, approved and Gov. Healey signed into law legislation that would provide police offi cers who have suff ered a violent act injury, 100 percent regular compensation and pension benefi ts, until they reach the age of mandatory retirement. Violent act injury is defi ned as “a serious and permanent personal bodily injury sustained as a direct and proximate result of a violent attack upon a person by means of a dangerous weapon, including a fi rearm, knife, automobile, explosive device or other dangerous weapon.†Supporters said that under current law, a first responder forced to retire due to a violent act injury can only receive benefi ts through the local retirement board via the home rule legislative process. They said this process is onerous and has resulted in disparate benefi ts being granted on a case-by-case basis. “Our first responders go above and beyond to keep our communities safe and respond to emergencies,†said Gov. Healey. “That’s why it’s critical that we support them when they experience emergencies of their own. This legislation ensures that fi rst responders who are injured in the line of duty have access to the pay and health care, including mental health care, that they need to support their families and their road to recovery.†(A “Yes†vote is for the bill.) Sen. Lydia Edwards Yes ALSO UP ON BEACON HILL PARENTAGE EQUALITY (S 2906) — Gov. Healey signed into law legislation changing how a family is defi ned in state law. Supporters said the new law would ensure legal parentage equality by protecting LGBTQ+ families, and children born through surrogacy and assisted reproduction, in forming the legal bond of a parent-child relationship. They said the measure would dismantle archaic legal barriers to basic parenting responsibilities for modern families, opening the door to legally attend and make decisions during medical appointments, manage a child’s fi nances, participate in educational decisions and provide authorizations for a child’s travel. “Our laws need to refl ect the realities of modern families and the loving environments where children grow and fl ourish,†Gov. Healey said. “This moment is a victory for all families in Massachusetts who deserve to be treated with dignity and to have their rights recognized and protected under the law.†PROTECT FIREFIGHTERS (S 2902) — The House and Senate approved and sent to Gov. Healey a measure that would require a manufacturer or person that sells Firefi ghting Personal Protective Equipment to any person or government agency, to provide, beginning January 1, 2025, written notice to the buyer, at the time of sale, if the equipment contains toxic per- and polyfl uoroalkyl substance chemicals, known as PFAS. The seller would also have to provide the reason the chemicals were added to the equipment. Beginning on January 1, 2027, the bill prohibits any person from manufacturing, knowingly selling or distributing any equipment containing intentionally added PFAS chemicals. “My offi ce originally fi led this bill in 2019 in collaboration with The Professional Firefi ghters of Massachusetts (PFFM) and Clean Water Action,†said lead sponsor Rep. Jim Hawkins (D-Attleboro). “With each legislative session, we refi led, improved upon the language and aided in the unwavering dedication of PFFM as they advocated tirelessly for their members … Despite improvements in cancer care, our fi refi ghters are still becoming sick and dying from occupational cancers at a rate more than twice the general population. It is our duty to protect those who protect us.

Mike Moore (D-Millbury). “The shocking truth is that, from 2002 to 2019, cancer accounted for 66 percent of fi refi ghter deaths, according to the International Association of Firefi ghters. PFAS exposure from fi refi ghting equipment is a crisis for fi refi ghters and the communities they serve.†“This is great news,†said Deirdre Cummings, MASSPIRG’s Legislative director. “Firefi ghters put their lives on the line to protect us in an emergency, and we must make sure the gear they wear will protect them.†VETERANS BENEFITS (S 2817) — Gov. Healey signed into law legislation designed to benefi t veterans in the Bay State by broadening the definition of a veteran, increasing tax credits and state benefi ts for which they are eligible and modernizing the services on which they rely. Provisions include increasing benefi ts for disabled veterans and Gold Star family members; bolstering new and existing initiatives for municipalities and businesses to support veterans; creating comprehensive services for active-duty service members and military families; expanding the scope of the Veterans Equality Review Board; and codifying medical, behavioral health and dental benefi ts. The measure also requires several working groups to review post-traumatic stress disorder in veterans, mental health treatments for veterans and overall quality of life for veterans in Massachusetts. Supporters said the legislation will boost support for hundreds of thousands of individuals across the state who have served in the United States military, including nearly 30,000 women veterans and thousands of LGBTQ+ veterans. “This is our most comprehensive veterans legislation in over 20 years, and it’s the result of Massachusetts coming together to make veterans our priority,†said Gov. Healey. “From the start, our administration has been dedicated to revitalizing veterans’ services in Massachusetts, ensuring that every hero receives the benefi ts, resources and support they deserve. As we celebrate the 250th anniversary of our country — we can and will be the state where veterans and service members continue to lead and make all our freedom and success possible.†“Massachusetts has a long history of prioritizing the needs of our veterans and service members and I am thrilled that the [bill] is on its way to the governor’s desk to continue this tradition,†said Sen. John Velis (DWestfi eld), Senate chair of the Committee on Veterans and Federal Aff airs. “Less than one half of one percent of our nation bravely raise their right hand and pledge to defend our nation no matter the costs. We must always remember, recognize and honor these sacrifi ces however we can, and passage of this legislation is an important step toward fulfi lling that mission.†“The [measure] enhances the quality of life for veterans in the commonwealth by making critical investments in benefi ts programs, expanding access to services and creating policies to ensure our veterans and their families are well-informed about the benefi ts and services available to them,†said Rep. Gerry Cassidy (D-Brockton), House chair of the Committee on Veterans and Federal Aff airs. DOMESTIC ASSAULT AND JOBS (S 2934) — Senate approved and sent to the House a bill that would extend employment protection for workers employed through a temporary hiring agency. These workers, if they are victims of domestic assault, could not have their contract terminated if they miss a reasonable amount of time for certain appointments. Covered appointments include doctor’s appointments, hospital stays and court dates. This would mirror the protections currently granted to bona fi de employees of a company. “This bill has been fi led and pushed by Sen. Fattman and me after a tragic incident that occurred to a constituent of ours,†said co-sponsor Rep. Joe McKenna (R-Webster). “Amanda Dabrowski was a victim of domestic assault and had her temporary agency contract terminated after missing time because she was in the hospital. Tragically, partly due to her loss of work, her life took a few challenging turns and she was ultimately tracked and murdered by the same violent perpetrator.†“No one who’s a victim of domestic violence should lose their job because they are unable to attend work due to the injuries they sustained from domestic abuse,†said co-sponsor Sen. Ryan Fattman (R-Sutton). “Victims of domestic violence need to be protected, and this legislation will be one step in strengthening our laws to make sure this happens. In Amanda’s honor, the Dabrowski family would like to make sure that something good comes out of this very tragic situation.†QUOTABLE QUOTES “Survivors of sexual assault already have so many obstacles to overcome when bringing their experiences forward. We have tools to hold perpetrators accountable and help survivors but unaddressed delays minimize the injustice experienced by survivors and place others at risk for potential assaults. The Executive Offi ce of Public Safety and Security needs to take these matters seriously, and ensure these kits are being tracked correctly, processing kits on time and in accordance with the law.†---State Auditor Diana DiZoglio on her Executive Offi ce of Public Safety and Security audit which identifi es issues with oversight of sexual assault evidence collection kits. “Our governor and her administration have committed to being climate champions. Reducing food waste remains an unrealized opportunity toward that goal. We urge state policymakers to take on reduction of food waste as a top priority. We have a menu of strategies to do just that.†---Janet Domenitz, Executive Director of MASSPIRG on the group’s new report “How to Reduce Food Waste in Massachusetts.†The report says that despite signifi cant progress in reducing it, food waste still accounts for about 22 percent of Massachusetts’ trash, with nearly one million tons of food waste sent to landfi lls and incinerators each year. “Jobs are a great way for young people to learn skills and improve their communities, and it is essential that employers provide safe and healthy work environment. I am proud of the work my offi ce has done to uplift and protect our youth in the workplace, and we will continue to protect them by ensuring that companies are complying with our child labor laws.†--- Attorney General Andrea Campbell highlighting more than $4.1 million in penalties and restitution against Massachusetts employers that have violated Massachusetts’ child labor laws. BEACON | SEE Page 16 How to Choose a Walk-In Bathtub Dear Savvy Senior, Because of my back pain and mobility problems, I’m interested in getting a walk-in bathtub that’s safe and easy to get in and out of. What all can you tell me about walk-in tubs, and can you recommend some top options? Old and Achy Dear Old, For mobility challenged seniors, a walk-in bathtub can be a terrifi c option to consider because they’re much easier to get into and out of than a standard tub, which also helps prevent falls. Here’s what you should know, along with a reliable resource to help you choose one. Age-Friendly Tubs Walk-in bathtubs are uniquely designed tubs that have a watertight, hinged door built into the side of the tub that provides a much lower threshold to step over (usually 3 to 7 inches) versus a standard tub that’s around 15 inches. Most walk-in tubs have high sidewalls, usually between three and four feet high, and are between 28 and 32 inches wide, but will fi t into the same 60-inch-long space as your standard tub without having to reconfi gure the room. In addition to the low threshold, most walk-in tubs also have a built-in seat, grab bars, antislip fl oors and anti-scald valves. Some tubs also come with handheld showerheads and quick drains (that drain the tub in under a minute), and many higher-end models off er therapeutic spa-like features that are great for seniors with arthritis and other ailments. The best kind of tub for you will depend on your needs, preferences and budget, and the size and layout of your bathroom. But be aware that walk-in bathtubs are not cheap. Prices range anywhere from $3,000 to $10,000 or more for the tub and installation costs. Insurance and Aid Because walk-in tubs are not considered durable medical equipment, original Medicare does not typically cover them nor do Medicare supplemental (Medigap) policies, but some Medicare Advantage plans may help pay. If you’re receiving Medicaid, many states have Home and Community Based Services that may provide some assistance. Or, if you’re a disabled veteran, the VA has some home modifi cation grants that may help pay. There are also grants and loans available through the U.S. Department of Agriculture that help elderly, low-income residents of rural areas make home modifi cations, which may be used to pay for a walk-in bathtub. And, depending on where you live, there may be local programs that can help like Habitat for Humanity or Rebuilding Together. To fi nd out if these options are available in your area, contact your Area Aging Agency (call 800-677-1116) or nearby center for independent living (see ilru.org). If, however, you can’t locate any financial assistance and you can’t aff ord to pay upfront for a walk-in tub, most manufacturers off er fi nancing so you can make monthly payments. You should also know that if you’re using a walk-in tub for a specifi c medical condition, you may also be able to deduct the costs of the tub from your taxes as a medical expense (see irs. gov/pub/irs-pdf/p502.pdf). Best Walk-In Bathtubs To help you choose a walkin bathtub the National Council on Aging, which is a national nonprofi t organization that advocates for older Americans, put together a review team to research the diff erent companies and tubs. Their list of best walk-in bathtubs of 2024 includes: • Best Walk-in Tub Overall: Ella Ultimate Walk-In Tub • Best Walk-in Tub with Shower: Kohler Walk-In Tub with Shower Package • Most Aff ordable Walk-in Tub: Ariel Walkin 3052 Soaker • Best Soaking Tub: American Standard Gelcoat Entry Series • Best Wheelchair-Accessible Tub: Ella Transfer • Best Walk-in Tub for Small Spaces: AmeriGlide Sanctuary 2646 WIT See NCOA.org/adviser/walkin-tubs/best-walk-in-tubs for detailed reviews and product links. To get started, you should contact a few walk-in bathtub retailers who can send a professional to your home to assess your bathroom and give you product options and estimates. Lowe’s and Home Depot also off er free evaluations and a wide range of walk-in tub options. Send your senior questions to: Savvy Senior, P.O. Box 5443, Norman, OK 73070, or visit SavvySenior.org.

HOW LONG WAS LAST WEEK’S SESSION? Beacon Hill Roll Call tracks the length of time that the House and Senate were in session each week. Many legislators say that legislative sessions are only one aspect of the Legislature’s job and that a lot of important work is done outside of the House and Senate chambers. They note that their jobs also involve committee work, research, constituent work and other matters that are important to their districts. Critics say that the Legislature does not meet regularly or long enough to debate and vote in public view on the thousands of pieces of legislation that have been fi led. They note that the infrequency and brief length of sessions are misguided and lead to irresponsible late-night sessions and a mad rush to act on dozens of bills in the days immediately preceding the end of an annual session. During the week of August 5-9. the House met for a total of one hour and two minutes and the Senate met for a total of 55 minutes. Mon. August 5 House 11:01 a.m. to 11:13 a.m. Senate 11:06 a.m. to 11:20 a.m. Tues. August 6 No House session No Senate session. Wed. August 7 No House session No Senate session Thurs. August 8 House 11:02 GRANTOR-TYPE TRUSTS AS OWNERS OF SUB S CORPORATION STOCK A s part of the estate planning process, it is a good idea to consider transferring common stock in a Subchapter S Corporation to a wholly-owned grantor-type trust in order to avoid probate in the event of the stockholder’s death as well as for estate tax planning. Many businesses have adopted S Corporation status for tax purposes. With an S Corporation, the income or loss is passed through to the individual stockholder via a Schedule K-1 form in order for the income or loss to be reported on the stockholder’s Form 1040. Assuming the stockholder has enough stockholder basis in the corporation, any loss incurred by the corporation can be passed through to the stockholder to off set income such as wages, interest, dividends, net rental income, etc. IRC Section 1361(c)(2) allows for a grantor-type Trust to be an eligible shareholder of an S Corporation. All revocable trusts are grantor-type Trusts. If structured properly, even an irrevocable Trust can be deemed a grantor-type Trust for tax purposes. If a stockholder wishes to transfer his or her common stock certifi cate to a revocable or irrevocable Trust, he or she would be the Settlor (the Grantor) of such a Trust, the Trustee of such a Trust and the income benefi ciary of the Trust. If an irrevocable Trust is the preferred option due to asset protection reasons such as nursing home costs, some people will look to name a child the Trustee. If the Trust is drafted properly and there are not any circumstances where a principal distribution can be a.m. to 11:52 a.m. Senate 11:08 a.m. to 11:49 a.m. Fri. August 9 No House session 1.

On what TV series did Miss made to the Settlor, then the common stock in the irrevocable Trust should not be a countable asset for purposes of MassHealth eligibility, even if the Settlor also serves as Trustee. The Settlor (Grantor) of the grantor-type Trust must be deemed the owner of the entire Trust and must be a United States citizen or resident. If the Grantor dies, the grantor-type Trust would still be a permissible stockholder for two years following the Grantor’s death. In the event of the Grantor’s death, for S Corporation income tax purposes, the Trust would be considered a non-grantor administrative Trust under Internal Revenue Code Section 1361(c)(2)(A)(ii). No election is necessary to be fi led with the IRS in order for a grantor-type Trust to be an eligible shareholder of an S Corporation. A Grantor-Type Trust tax return could be fi led in order to report the Schedule K-1 income or loss generated by the S Corporation. A Grantor letter would then be delivered to the Grantor of the Trust so that the Grantor could report the net income or net loss fi gure on his or her federal and Massachusetts individual income tax return.

Truthfully, everyone needs a Michelle Woodbrey is the cofounder of 2Sisters Senior Living Advisors and a contributing expert for the website Excellent Care, Decency, and Optimal Living (ECDOL). She has been working in the fi eld of senior living for over 20 years. and care needs. If we want to stay home, we can identify ahead of time what we would need to make that successful. If I were going on a road trip across the country, for example, I would not start driving without some sense of what my route might look like. I would also consider the number of miles and how much gas I need as well as the price of gas. If I don’t do these things, the chances are that I might never actually make it across the country. I could end up stuck somewhere in the middle (no off ense, Kansas). If I do complete the journey, I will have spent a lot of time and resources going in the wrong direction with the best of intentions. Make a plan, put on a seatbelt and do your best to enjoy the ride. plan. That unexpected things happen in life is a guarantee. There are things we can all do now to minimize the impact on our loved ones if something unexpected does happen. In honor of Grandparent’s Day, let’s take a minute to consider what you may need. If something were to happen, we can save our family from the additional overwhelm of fi guring out our passwords, fi nding bank account information and determining what we want to happen if we are ever incapacitated. Given the chance, most of us would spare our loved ones from the agony of making such impossible life-changing decisions. Well, you have the chance now. Here are some of the things you will need. Start with the important documents. This includes fi nancial power of attorney, health care proxy, DNR if chosen, long-term care and life insurance information, Medicare card, living will, social security card, as well as discharge papers if you were in the military. You can plan ways to communicate your end-of-life wishes, down to the fi nest of details if you want. If we think about what would be needed for a loved one to do and how we can make things easier for them, we can spare them the frustration of fi guring out all of our usernames and passwords, fi nding our account numbers, locations of keys, etc. Just like we pray that we never need a seatbelt, we can put a plan in place for our care with a similar prayer. Important considerations include our living arrangements August 21 is National Senior Citizens Day N ational Senior Citizens Day is upon us. Since it was signed off on by President Ronald Reagan in 1988, August 21 has been known nationally as Senior Citizens Day. This annual event, now in its 36th year, has raised awareness of so many of the small and large challenges and achievements of our nations’ seniors. According to a recent census, 47 million seniors live in the United States. By 2060, that number will nearly double. Their wealth of knowledge, skill and experience offer so much to the next generation. Additionally, our senior citizens are pioneers of science, medicine, psychology, civil rights and so much more. Their valuable contributions to our communities create better places to live. They deserve the respect and dignity their achievements earn them. How to celebrate Senior Citizens Day?
