~ POLITICAL ANNOUNCEMENT ~
Steven Morabito announces
candidacy for Mayor of Revere
Friends and Residents of Revere,
First,
I would like to thank you,
the people of Revere for instilling
your trust in me by electing
me as your City Councillor-atLarge
for the last 10-years. It has
been a humbling experience for
me to receive a strong showing
of support city-wide, election
year after election year. It has
truly been an honor.
As the mayoral race in our beloved
city heats up, it is clear that
the City of Revere deserves leadership
that has a deep understanding
of the communityâ€™s
priorities and commitment to
equitable and inclusive policies
that promote economic sustainability,
public safety, and a high
quality of life for all residents. We
need a leader who will prioritize
the well-being and progress of
our community above all else.
A leader who understands the
needs of our population and the
is committed to making positive
change.
I am proud to announce my
candidacy for Mayor of Revere.
My parents came to this country
from Italy with hopes of the
American Dream. I can relate

Historic Burial Grounds closed
due to abuse of site
Special to Th e Advocate
T
he Rumney Marsh Burial
Ground Restoration Committee
regrets to announce that due
to the ongoing and worsening
issue of people treating a historic
landmark like a dog park, the
burial ground will be closed until
further notice.
The committee has received a
number of messages from concerned
neighbors about people
allowing unleashed dogs to
run rampant through the burial
ground. Recent walkthroughs revealed
large patches of grass that
had been torn up and a signifi cant
amount of dog feces throughout
the burial ground. It is disgraceful
that the burial ground is being
treated in this manner.
While no one has been buried
in Rumney Marsh Burial Ground
since 1929, it is in no sense abandoned.
We hold tours and events
at RMBG and occasionally host
descendants of the people buried
there. Burial grounds like
RMBG are open air museums and
should be treated with appropriate
respect.
We hate to restrict access to the
burial ground when there are so
many people who want to visit
and would do so respectfully. Unfortunately,
we cannot rely on certain
people to have the common
sense to curb their dog in a burial
ground. When our committee
meets at the end of April, we will
decide how best to move forward.
Please feel free to contact us
at rmbgcommittee@gmail.com
with any questions or concerns.

The wrought-iron gates will be closed indefi nitely due to the lack of respect by dog owners who
abuse the historic site. (Courtesy of RMBGRC)

City to consider zoning changes for childcare centers
Council approves $137K for Liberty Park upgrades
By Barbara Taormina
The City Council voted to hold
a public hearing on April 24 for
a proposed zoning amendment
that would ease the rules for
childcare providers in Revere.
Tom Skwierawski, the cityâ€™s director
of Planning and Community
Development, explained
to councillors that the need for
more aff ordable and accessible
childcare emerged in a 2021
Workforce Development plan.
Planning and Community Development
staff worked with an
advisory committee that held
community meetings and determined
that a zoning amendment
that would align zoning
regulations closer to state regulations
would be a major step
forward.
Under the current zoning regulations,
local childcare centers
are capped at four children per
site and require a special permit
from the City Council. The

changes proposed by the Planning
and Development department
would increase the number
of children to 10 per site although
centers with seven or
more children would require a
certifi ed childcare assistant employed
by the center. Also, childcare
centers would be able to
open and operate by right in 12
of the cityâ€™s 19 zoning districts.
Councillor-at-Large Marc Silvestri
also pointed out that current
zoning requires a parking
space for every child that attends
a childcare facility. â€œThat
really blew my mind because
Iâ€™m not sure how many of them
are driving to a childcare center
to be taken care of,â€ said Silvestri.
Skwierawski said proposals
for zoning amendments must
be presented with a petition
signed by 10 registered voters.
He brought the council a petition
with 100 signatures. â€œThis
really was a community project
that we led, but it had the
support of the community,â€™ said
Skwierawski.
In other council newsâ€¦
The City Council unanimously
approved spending $137,000
from the Community Improvement
Trust Fund to upgrade Liberty
Park in Ward 6.
CFO Richard Viscay said the
money was the city's share of a
matching grant from the state
PARC program, which was created
to help communities acquire
and renovate parks and
recreational facilities. The total
cost of the Liberty Park makeover
will be $500,000.
Viscay said the money will
cover the removal of old, outdated
playground equipment,
removal of asphalt and mulch
and the installation of new
equipment, a pickleball court, a
gaga pit, safety equipment and
new seating.
"Liberty park is tucked into
the neighborhood in a safe, confi
ned area," said Ward 6 Councillor
Richard Serino who added
the Planning Department
worked with the neighborhood
on the redesign.
BBB Scam Alert: Celebrity
impersonations get more
sophisticated with AI technology
T
o trick you, scammers need
to earn your trust fi rst. What
better way than by posing as a
popular celebrity? Recently, the
Better Business Bureau (BBB)
Scam Tracker received numerous
reports involving products
supposedly endorsed by wellknown
and trusted celebrities.
With the rise in deepfake scams
and ever-improving artifi cial intelligence
(AI) technology, these
phony endorsements are more
convincing than ever.
How the scam works: You see
a post on social media of a celebrity
endorsing a weight loss
product, health supplement or
another product. In the post,
photos show the celebrity using
the product, or a video features
their voice talking about
the amazing results theyâ€™ve
seen. It sounds too good to be
true, but the photos and video
look so real! Also, the social media
account appears to belong
to the celebrity.
For example, one consumer
reported ordering â€œOprah Winfreyâ€™s
keto gummy bear supplementsâ€
after seeing a phony
endorsement. They explained:
â€œThe ad showed Oprahâ€™s face
and featured her explaining the
product and off ering a fi rst-time
buyer discount of buy one bottle
for $49 and get a second one
free. I clicked on the link and put
in my order. The next morning,
I received an email stating my
order had been processed for
$198!â€ The company denied the
customer a refund and shipped
the product anyway. Upon arrival,
the customer found the
gummies were from a company
that had no affi liation with
Oprah Winfrey.
Before you make a purchase,
take a minute to reexamine the
post and social media account.
The photos and videos are most
likely fake. If you make a purchase,
youâ€™ll lose money (often
more than you expected) on a
product that is substandard or
doesnâ€™t exist.
How to spot fake celebrity
scams:
â€¢ Get familiar with deepfake
technology. Scammers use
deepfake technology to trick
people. They take real video
clips and photos of a person and
use them to create new videos
and audio clips. Deepfake images
and video can be surprisingly
realistic. See this BBB article
for tips on spotting deepfakes:
https://www.bbb.org/article/
news-releases/27157-bbb-tiphow-to-spot-a-deepfake-andavoid-scams
â€¢
Understand how AI generated
images work. With AI image
generators, you can type in
a few words describing the image
you want created, and the
AI generates an image based on
your text. Itâ€™s valuable technology,
but scammers can abuse it to
create images to back up their
stories, products or outright
lies. The point? Donâ€™t assume a
photo is proof that something is
trustworthy.

in the kitchen studio at RevereTV
this semester. It came
to an end last week with the
classâ€™s fi nal recipe of soda bread.
Bunker Hill Community College
Professor/Chef Ramzy Asmar
led the students through
various recipes that included
both meals and desserts. The
goal was for students to develop
skills in measuring, mixing,
baking, sauteing, kitchen safety
and preparing nutritious meals.
These classes were not recorded
in full, but there will be a highlight
reel playing on the Community

few weeks.
Victoria Fabbo was also in the
kitchen studio last week to record
another episode of â€œFabulous
Foods with Victoria Fabbo.â€
The theme of this episode will
be Easter eats. Victoria made a
full and healthy Easter meal
with dishes like berry quinoa
salad with citrus honey dressing,
beet salad, roasted carrots
with honey and lemon, and peanut
butter Nutella oat cookies.
To check this out in time for the
holiday weekend, watch â€œFabulous

Revere Recreation held the
third annual Great Egg Hunt
around the city on Sunday. Kids
were invited to 10 playgrounds
around the city to fi nd Easter
eggs. The activity was organized
with an app and QR codes for
participants to scan the eggs to

By Brendan Oâ€™Brien, on behalf
of the Revere Society for
Cultural & Historical Preservation
Board
Y
es, the Revere History Museum,
located at 108 Beach
Street, is a real thing!
Some people may be surprised
to hear that our city actually has
a museum; and some may be
aware of the museum but are
not sure about its mission. Others
may know of the museum
yet wonder what it has been up
to and why they have not heard
much about it recently or found
it closed when trying to visit.
As the new president of the Revere
Society for Cultural & Historical
Preservation (RSCHP), the volunteer
group that staff s and operates
the museum, I want to give
the people of Revere an update
on their museum. In 2019, the
museum was thriving. We had
well over 100 members, and we
put on several successful events,
not the least of which was the
fi rst Revere History Trolley Tour.
However, the pandemic put an
end to any activity in the museum
for more than a year.
As the shutdown abated, the
interior renovations began. Students
from Northeast Metro Tech
have been engaged in an extensive
project, rewiring the building
completely and installing a
new HVAC system along with
plumbing and carpentry work.
Exhibits have been moved into
storage, and much of the building
is literally an active construction
site. This work will continue
into the next school year, and as
such we will not be off ering tours
for the foreseeable future. This
work is both a disruption and an
opportunity, but like the pandemic
shutdown, it has meant
we have been unable to open
our doors for tours, so interest in
the museum has declined.
Over the last year, we have
been able to start on the comeback
trail. Our membership,
while not yet at pre-COVID levels,
has been increasing steadily.
We hosted a paranormal tour
as part of Revereâ€™s â€œAll Hallowâ€™s
Eveâ€ last October, and we did a
brisk business selling our fourth
annual ornament at our Holiday
Event in December. In January
and February, we hosted a
weekly Revere History class from
the high school, and the Welcome
Blanket Program is using
our meeting room to knit blankets
and make quilts for families
new to Revere.
We are excited to be scheduling
a series of presentations
at the museum throughout the
summer. This series will kick off
on June 25 when guests can
learn about Revereâ€™s history in
conversation with the cityâ€™s Official
Historian, Jeff Pearlman.
Additional programs are being
scheduled for July and August.
We look forward to opening
the museum to you again and
will announce that loud and clear
as soon as we are able. We also
need your help. RSCHP is a volunteer
organization from top to
bottom, and the more engaged
volunteers we have the more
accessible the museum can be.

BBB Scam Alert: Small
businesses spot an invoice
scam posing as the Geek
Squad or PayPal
Y
ou might have encountered
a fake invoice if you
are running a small business (or
keeping books for one). Phony
bills have long been a favorite
and eff ective trick of scammers.
Recently, the Better Business
Bureau (BBB) Scam Tracker
has gotten multiple reports
of a new version of this scam,
where con artists pretend to
be contacting you as part of the
Geek Squad, which is owned by
Best Buy (BBB Accredited Business)
or through PayPal (BBB
Accredited Business).
How the scam works: You
receive an invoice that says itâ€™s
coming from the Geek Squad.
It says youâ€™ll be charged hundreds
of dollars for an annual
subscription that is about to
auto-renew. The email may include
a PDF version of the invoice
and a number for you to
call if you want to cancel the
subscription.
Panicked and sure you never
authorized this subscription,
you call the number. A
â€œcustomer service agentâ€ answers
and pretends to assist
you with the cancellation. They
might offer you a refund or
ask you to confi rm your bank
account information so they
can cancel the subscription. If
you give them that sensitive
information, theyâ€™ll likely gain
access to your account and
can withdraw money without
your consent. Even if you stop
short of calling â€œcustomer service,â€
downloading any PDFs or
clicking links in the email could
download malware onto your
computer and put you at risk
of identity theft.
One consumer reported
this experience: â€œThe Geek
Squad sent an email saying
they were going to auto charge
me $422.22 for an annual subscription.
I called the number in
the email to cancel the renewal.
They told me I had to fi ll out
a form, which I did. However,
when they asked me to click on
a specifi c link on my bank account
website, I became suspicious
and told them I was going
to report a scam. They wouldnâ€™t
give up and just kept telling me
to go to my bankâ€™s website and
click the link. I hung up and deleted
the email.â€
Fake Geek Squad invoices
arenâ€™t the only version of this
scam. A new iteration looks
like a vendor requesting payment
via PayPal. Similar to the
Geek Squad version, the message
urges you to call â€œcustomer
serviceâ€ if â€œthe payment was
not authorized or you wish to
cancel this charge.â€
How to avoid fake invoice
scams:
â€¢ Be wary of unsolicited
emails, especially if you donâ€™t
remember doing business
with the company they claim
to come from. Even if you do
business with a company, be
careful if you receive an email
you didnâ€™t ask for or authorize.
Scammers love to impersonate
companies that are well known
and trusted by consumers.
â€¢ Know how invoices will be
delivered. If you sign up for a
service or subscription, ask how
the company will deliver its invoices.
That way, you wonâ€™t be
fooled if scammers send you a
copycat invoice through a different
channel.
BBB Accredited Businesses:
BBB Accredited Businesses promise
to adhere to BBBâ€™s Standards
for Trust, so look for the BBB Accredited
Business Seal. Itâ€™s the
sign of a Better Business.
â€¢ Train your staff to spot a fake
invoice. As a small business
owner, you might not personally
look at every invoice from
your accounts department.
Ensure your employees know
how to diff erentiate a real invoice
from a scam.
â€¢ Donâ€™t give in to scare tactics.
Scammers will use a sense of
urgency to get you to give up
sensitive information or make
payments without thinking. If
someone tells you youâ€™ll lose
hundreds of dollars if you donâ€™t
act now, donâ€™t be easily intimidated.
Always do proper research
before agreeing to any
transactions â€“ especially unexpected
ones.
â€¢ Have questions about a
Geek Squad message? Reach
out to Best Buy. Customers can
call 1-888-BESTBUY to confi rm
whether a suspicious email is
real. Also, check out BestBuy.

Despite the shouting and

meeting, Keefe characterized
it as a very good meeting with
60 to 80 people expressing
their views. In the past, councillors
have praised residents
who attend meetings to stand
up for issues in their neighborhoods.
McKenna
asked the council to
award a commendation to three

Rose was arrested and

he can continue to attend

â€¢ Know that scammers often
impersonate celebrities. Donâ€™t
assume celebrity posts, images
or videos are legitimate until
you verify that they came from
an offi cial source. Just because
something is shared widely on
social media does not mean itâ€™s
real. For example, an AI generated
photo of Pope Francis
in a designer puff er jacket recently
went viral. A deepfake
video of Ukrainian president
Volodymyr Zelenskyy telling
his soldiers to surrender was
also widely circulated on social
media. Always do your due diligence
before you purchase or
reshare something you saw on
social media.
â€¢ Only do business with companies
you know and trust. If
you want to purchase a product
or make a donation, do so
through a reputable business

or nonprofit. If you want to
buy something from a company
you arenâ€™t familiar with, do
plenty of research fi rst. Look
up the company name, website
and contact information.
Read reviews on BBB.org and
do a general search with the
companyâ€™s name along with
the word â€œscam.â€ Donâ€™t skip
this step, even if youâ€™re excited

best way to protect yourself

Revere baseball team has high hopes after 2022 effort
By Greg Phipps
R
ight off the bat, the Revere
High School baseball
team had to contend with last
yearâ€™s Greater Boston League
(GBL) champion Lynn Classical
Rams in its season-opener
on Monday in Lynn. The result
was not what the Patriots
hoped for, as the Rams prevailed
by a 7-3 score.
â€œThe sun will come up tomorrow
and we will get back
to work,â€ commented Patriots
Head Coach Mike Manning after
the game.
Senior Domenic Boudreau
was the offensive leader for
Revere with two hits, a stolen
base and a run scored. Junior
pitcher Kyle Cummings got
the season-opening start. He
contributed a base hit and an
RBI to the Revere cause.
The 0-1 Patriots were scheduled
to play at Lynn English
in another league game on
Wednesday and resume action
on Monday, April 10, in
their fi rst home game against
Medford (scheduled 4:15 p.m.
start).
Mondayâ€™s opener at Classical
had a similar storyline to
last season when the Patriots
dropped a 3-1 decision
to the Rams on opening day.
Revere, which finished second
in the GBL last year with
an 11-3 league mark, won the
second meeting between the
two squads, but it wouldnâ€™t be
enough to overtake 12-2 Classical
for the league title.
Overall, the Patriots fi nished
with a 13-8 record and made
the Div. 1 playoff s in 2022. They
are hoping to either repeat or
exceed that performance this
spring. Manning and his team
finished strong last year by
winning six of their last seven
regular-season games. During
that stretch, Revere outscored
the opposition by 29 runs.
The 2022 campaign ended
on a low note in the playoff
tournament when the Patriotsâ€™
off ense was silenced in an 8-1
defeat at Beverly in the Div. 1
preliminary round. Revereâ€™s Sal
DeAngelis ended the season
with a solid three-for-three offensive

tion. But they are also looking
for Arrigoâ€™s response to a second
part of this story which involves
a City Hall moment that
seems like a scene from a New
York mob movie.
During a Ways and Means
Subcommittee meeting on Feb.
27, McKenna read a statement
on why she couldnâ€™t vote for
schematic design for a new high
school at the Wonderland site.
According to McKenna, â€œAfter
my statement, and before our
regular council meeting, Mayor
Arrigo approached me, the only
woman on the council, and said
that â€˜The Beachmont community
arts center that you want,
is done.â€™ Then he walked away
from me.â€
An emotional McKenna explained
her decision to come
forward with her story. â€œThis retaliation
not only takes away
from our community, but it
clearly refl ects the behavior of
an individual who did not get
his way,â€ said McKenna.
â€œI understand tensions were
high that night, and I would
have let the mayorâ€™s verbal
threat go because I have remained
silent with his bullying
tactics that have been occurring
throughout my tenure as a
councilwoman,â€ continued McKenna.
â€œBut now, with the cancellation
of this Community Arts
Center, I cannot remain silent
anymore â€“ enough is enough.â€
McKenna, in an email sent to
The Advocate, cited a March 23,
2023 email from the mayor to
Hannah Gathman, Senior Regional
Arts and Cultural Planner
for MAPC, which stated, â€œHannah-
Thank you for your support
on the Beachmont Fire Station.
Unfortunately, we are going to
have to cancel these working
group meetings for the foreseeable
future. The city is unable to
commit the resources to see this
project move forwardâ€¦.Brianâ€
Several councillors immediately
voiced their support for
McKenna.
Ward 3 Councillor Anthony
Cogliandro commended McKenna
for having the courage to
come forward with her story. â€œIf
thereâ€™s any question about what
she said, I witnessed, I heard, I
saw exactly what she described
happened that day and itâ€™s disheartening
to say the least,â€ said
Cogliandro.
Councillors-at-Large Dan
Rizzo and Gerry Visconti also
praised McKenna for standing
up and speaking out. â€œThis is
what people hate about politics,â€
said Rizzo. â€œItâ€™s a slap in the
face to call MAPC â€“ that wants
to give the city money â€“ and
tell them we donâ€™t want it,â€ said
Rizzo, who added that Revere
works hard for grant money to
assist the city.
â€œThereâ€™s no reason why the
residents should have to suff er,â€
said Rizzo.
Visconti also said McKennaâ€™s
story shows an ugly side of politics.
â€œItâ€™s very disheartening to
know this type of behavior is
coming from the Mayorâ€™s Offi ce,â€
said Visconti.
â€œThis is exactly what the city
has had enough of â€“ the division,
the vindictiveness, the
vendettas â€“ and why? Because
a vote didnâ€™t go the way the administration
wanted,â€ added Visconti.
â€œWe need to do better.â€
Councillor-at-Large Anthony
Zambuto complimented McKenna
for her courage and was a
little more direct in his criticism.
â€œThereâ€™s no place in politics for
this kind of retaliatory crapâ€¦Itâ€™s
bullying at its worst,â€ said Zambuto.
â€œThe bottom line is thereâ€™s
no place in the city for this stuff .
Iâ€™m disgusted by it and Iâ€™m with
you, Councillor McKenna.â€
Mayor Arrigo did not attend
the meeting; however, he issued
the following statement
in response to McKenna the following
day:
â€œOver the last eight years, my
administrationâ€™s goal has been
always to work collaboratively
and in good faith with all stakeholders
including our city council.
As long as Iâ€™m in offi ce, I will
continue to work with community
members and organizations
to bring a vibrant arts
space to the long-vacant Beachmont
Fire Station. It was never
my intention to suggest otherwise.â€

Dear Savvy Senior,
Whatâ€™s the best way to go about choosing an assisted
living facility for my 86-year-old father? Since mom died
last year, his health has declined to the point that he canâ€™t
live at home anymore but isnâ€™t ready for a nursing home
either.
Searching Susan
Dear Susan,
If your dad needs help with
things like bathing, dressing, preparing
meals, managing his medications
or just getting around, an
assisted living facility is defi nitely
a good option to consider.
Assisted living facilities are residential
communities that off er
diff erent levels of health or personal
care services for seniors
who want or need help with daily
living.
There are nearly 29,000 assisted
living communities (also called
board and care, supportive-care
or residential-care facilities) in
the U.S. today, some of which are
part of a retirement community or
nursing home. Most facilities have
anywhere between 10 and 100
suites, varying in size from a single
room to a full apartment. And
some even off er special memory
care units for residents with dementia.
To
help you choose a good assisted
living facility for your dad,
here are some steps to follow.
Make a list: There are several
sources you can turn to for referrals
to top assisted living communities
in your area including
your dadâ€™s doctor or nearby hospital
discharge planner; friends
or neighbors whoâ€™ve had a loved
one in assisted living; or you can
do an online search at Caring.com.
Do some research: To research
the communities on your list, put
a call into your long-term care ombudsman.
This is a government
official who investigates longterm
care facility complaints and
advocates for residents and their
families. This person can help
you fi nd the latest health inspection
reports on specifi c assisted
living facilities and can tell you
which ones have had complaints
or other problems in the past. To
fi nd your local ombudsman visit
LTCombudsman.org.
Call the facilities: Once youâ€™ve
identified a few good assisted
living facilities, call them to see
if they have any vacancies, what
they charge and if they provide
the types of services your father
needs.
Tour your top choices: During
your visit, notice the cleanliness
and smell of the facility. Is
it homey and inviting? Does the
staff seem responsive and kind
to its residents? Also be sure to
taste the food, and talk to the
residents and their family members,
if available. Itâ€™s also a good
idea to visit several times at diff erent
times of the day and diff erent
days of the week to get a broader
perspective.
On your facility visit, get a copy
of the admissions contract and
the residence rules that outline
the fees (and any extra charges),
services and residentsâ€™ rights, and
explanations for when a resident
might be asked to leave because
their condition has worsened, and
they require more care than the
facility can provide.
Also, fi nd out their staff turnover
rate, COVID infection-control
procedures and if and when
medical professionals are on site.
To help you rate your visit, Caring.com
off ers a checklist of questions
that you can download and
print at Caring.com/static/checklist-AL-tour.pdf.
How
to pay: Monthly costs for
assisted living ranges anywhere
from $2,500 to $6,000 or more,
depending on where you live,
the facility you choose, and the
services provided. Since Medicare
does not cover assisted living,
most residents pay out-ofpocket
from their own personal
funds, and some have long-term
care insurance policies.
If your dad has limited fi nancial
resources and canâ€™t aff ord this,
most states now have Medicaid
waiver programs that help pay
for assisted living. Or, if heâ€™s a veteran,
he may be able to get funds
through the VAâ€™s Aid and Attendance
benefi t. To fi nd out about
these programs, ask the assisted
living facility director, or contact
his local Medicaid offi ce (see Medicaid.gov)
or the regional VA benefi
t offi ce (800â€“827â€“1000).

P.O. Box 5443, Norman, OK 73070, or visit SavvySenior.

with so many residents in our
city who are first generation
Americans. I am a lifelong resident
of this city, and I am deeply
invested in its success. With
my experience, vision, and passion
for public service, I am confi
dent that I am the right candidate
to lead our city forward. Revere
faces numerous challenges,
from aff ordable housing and
transportation to economic development
and environmental
sustainability.
As your Mayor, I will tackle
these issues head-on, with a
collaborative and inclusive approach
that involves input from
all stakeholders, including our
citizens, business owners, and
community leaders.
My priorities as Mayor will include:
Aff
ordable Housing for All: I
will work to increase the availability
of affordable housing
options for all residents, including
families, seniors, and lowincome
individuals. I will also
work to prevent homelessness
and provide support to those
in need.
Economic & Community Development:
As city councilor, I
supported substantial investments
in parks, fi elds and playgrounds.
We must continue to
prioritize community and economic
development throughout
the city of Revere. I will
work tirelessly to attract and retain
businesses, promote entrepreneurship,
and create goodpaying
jobs for our residents.
I will also invest in workforce
development programs to ensure
that our citizens have the
skills needed to succeed in the
changing job market.
McMackin Field is place where
I played baseball as a kidâ€¦ It
now looks like Belle Isle Marsh!
This fi eld was named in honor
of Charles G. McMackin. A
U.S. Army Staff Sgt. who sacrifi
ced his life when his plane was
shot down in World War II. I will
work diligently to revitalize this
location in collaboration with
area residents, to determine a
use that fi ts the neighborhood
while continuing to honor Sgt.
McMackin. Community values

should lead our development
work.
Sustainable Development: I
will prioritize environmentally
responsible policies that protect
our natural resources, reduce
our carbon footprint, and promote
sustainability. I will work
towards implementing green
initiatives, such as renewable
energy programs and waste reduction
eff orts.
Safe and Inclusive Communities:
I will work with law enforcement
agencies, community organizations,
and residents to
promote safety, inclusivity, and
equality for all citizens, regardless
of race, gender, religion, or
sexual orientation.
Transparent and Accountable
Government: I will ensure
that our government operates
with transparency and accountability.
I
will work to improve access
to information, engage with citizens
in decision-making processes,
and fight against corruption.
Infrastructure:
Despite all the
work thatâ€™s been done to replace
aging infrastructure. I will
make strategic investments in
the cityâ€™s roads, sidewalks and
bridges.
I am committed to putting
the needs of our citizens fi rst
and working tirelessly to make
Revere the best it can be. With
your support, we can build a
better future for our city and

THE HOUSE AND SENATE:
Beacon Hill Roll Call records local
senatorsâ€™ votes on the only
roll call from the week of March
27-31. There were no roll calls in
the House last week
$350 MILLION FOR ROADS
AND BRIDGES (S 2375)
Senate 40-0, approved a bill
that includes authorizing $200
million in one-time funding for
the maintenance and repair of
local roads and bridges in cities
and towns across the state. The
$350 million package, a bond
bill under which the funding
would be borrowed by the
state through the sale of bonds,
also includes $150 million to
pay for bus lane improvements,
improvement of public transit,
electric vehicles and other
state transportation projects.
The House has approved a different
version and the Senate
version now goes to the House
for consideration.
Supporters said the funding,
known as Chapter 90 funding,

will help cities and towns make
their streets and bridges safer
for all drivers and will improve
the stateâ€™s public transportation
system. They noted the money
is relied on every year by local
communities.
â€œThis legislation will maintain
and improve our stateâ€™s infrastructure,
ensure that residents
have safe and reliable transportation
options and support
sustainable, regionally equitable
economic development in
communities across the commonwealth,â€
said Senate President
Karen Spilka (D-Ashland).
â€œOur transportation system
is the backbone of our commonwealth,
connecting us to
our jobs, families and communities,â€
said Sen. Brendan Crighton
(D-Lynn), Chair of the Senate
Committee on Transportation.
â€œThis investment is not just
an investment in infrastructure,
but an investment in the future
of our commonwealth, enabling
our cities and towns to
make the necessary improvements
to promote effi cient and
safe travel for all.â€
Geoff Beckwith, the executive
director of the Massachusetts
Municipal Association, is
one of the biggest advocates
for more Chapter 90 funding
above the $200 million.
â€œWe are grateful that the Senate
has moved so quickly on
this important legislation,â€ said
Beckwith. â€œCities and towns are
anxious to begin the road construction
season, and are waiting
for this necessary infusion
of funds. Communities are facing
huge cost pressures as they
seek to maintain 30,000 miles
of local roads, so we hope the
Legislature can send the best
bill possible to the governor as
soon as possible, as a fi rst step
in investing in the massive infrastructure
needs at the local
level.â€
(A â€œYesâ€ vote is for the $350
million package.)
Sen. Lydia Edwards Yes
ALSO UP ON BEACON HILL
$388.6 MILLION FISCAL 2023
SUPPLEMENTAL BUDGET (H
3548) â€“ Gov. Maura Healey
signed into law a $388.6 million
fi scal 2023 supplemental budget.
Provisions include $65 million
for free school meals; $130
million to keep expanded nutrition
assistance in place for a
few more months; $2 million
for the reimbursement of SNAP
benefi ts for victims of benefi t
theft; $250,000 for a free abortion-related
legal hotline; $45
million for emergency shelter
assistance; $40 million to support
aff ordable housing for immigrants
and refugees; and $2
million for the Boston branch
of the NAACP for costs of some
programs to be included in its
114th National NAACP Conference
taking place in Boston in
2023.
Other provisions keep some
pandemic-era programs, set
to expire, in place including allowing
restaurants to sell beer,
wine and cocktails for take-out;
expanding outdoor dining; and
extending the authority, set to
expire in a few weeks, for public
bodies, agencies and commissions
to hold their meetings
remotely.
â€œIâ€™m proud that the fi rst major
bill signed into law by our
administration dedicates crucial
resources to help Massachusetts
families access safe
and secure housing, keep food
on the table and pay for childcare,â€
said Gov. Healey. â€œAdditionally,
this bill supports our
health care workforce, crucial
housing and economic development
programs like MassWork
and our eff orts to compete
for federal funding.â€
â€œThis supplemental budget
injects urgently needed funds
into programs that support
Massachusetts families and
drive housing and economic
development across our state,â€
said Lt. Gov. Kim Driscoll. â€œIt also
takes important steps to educate
the public on their options
around reproductive health
care, extends accessibility and
fl exibility for public meetings,
protects access to clean water
and bolsters broadband infrastructure.â€

THE REVERE ADVOCATE â€“ FRIDAY, APRIL 7, 2023
BEACON | FROM Page 20
amendments fi led by representatives
and senators to amend
the state constitution.
Any proposed constitutional
amendment sponsored by
legislators needs the votes of
a majority of the 200-member
Legislature in the 2023 to
2024 session and the same in
the 2025 to 2026 session in order
to appear on the November
2026 ballot for voters to decide.
None of these proposals have
yet been approved.
EMINENT DOMAIN (H 83) â€“
Would prohibit private property
from being taken by the government
for private commercial
enterprise, economic development
or any other private
use without the consent of the
owner. A similar measure was
originally fi led in 2005 as a response
to a U.S. Supreme Court
ruling that allows communities
to seize private homes and
businesses solely for commercial
purposes. The ruling also
allows states to establish laws
prohibiting the practice.
â€œThe right to own property
is a basic principle of the commonwealth
and it is one that
I feel strongly should be upheld,â€
said the proposalâ€™s sponsor
House Minority Leader
Brad Jones (R-North Reading).
â€œThe government should never
have the power to make value
judgments with respect to private
property. This proposed
amendment would protect
property owners by explicitly
affi rming that economic development
and private commercial
uses do not constitute
acceptable public uses for the
purpose of eminent domain
takings in the commonwealth.â€
CHANGE MANDATORY RETIREMENT
AGE FOR JUDGES
(H 36) â€“ Would change the
mandatory retirement age for
judges from 70 years old to 75
years old.
â€œIn recent years we have seen
an increased need to bring
judges back to the bench after
their mandatory retirement
age,â€ said sponsor Rep. Paul McMurtry
(D-Dedham). â€œThis proposal
would allow them to stay
on the bench and provide the
court with their years of experience.â€
HIS
OR HER EXCELLENCY
THE GOVERNOR (S 10) â€“ Would
amend the part of the state
constitution that creates the title
â€œHis Excellencyâ€ for the governor
and lieutenant governor.
The proposal would add â€œHer
Excellencyâ€ as a possibility.
â€œ[The bill] is one of a several
bills filed to clean up language
in our constitution that
privileges male gender by using
male pronouns to refer to
office holders,â€ said sponsor
Sen. Will Brownsberger (D-Belmont).
â€œIâ€™m hopeful that the Judiciary
Committee will report
out a consolidated bill that
makes all the necessary corrections.â€
OATH
OF OFFICE (H 33) â€“
Would amend a current section
of the constitution that gives
Quakers the option to change
the oath a person must take
upon taking office from the
current: â€œI do solemnly swear,
that I will bear true faith and
allegiance to the commonwealth
of Massachusetts and
will support the constitution
thereof. So help me God.â€ Currently
Quakers are allowed to
change the word â€œswearâ€ to â€œaffi
rmâ€ and the words â€œSo help
me Godâ€ with â€œunder the pains
and penalties of perjury.â€ The
amendment would give that
same option to anyone, not
just Quakers.
â€œThe state constitution only
allows people of Quaker faith
to have the option of affi rming
their oath,â€ said sponsor
Rep. Mindy Domb (D-Amherst).
â€œThe amendment would
remove the Quaker eligibility
[only] for this option. Federal offi
cials, including the President,
a U.S. Representative and a U.S.
Senator all have the opportunity
to choose to swear or affi rm
their oaths of offi ce.â€

APPOINT LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR.
(H 38) â€“ Would grant
the governor the power to appoint
a lieutenant governor if
the offi ce is vacant because of
the death, resignation, removal
from offi ce or incapacity of the
lieutenant governor. The appointment
would have to be
confi rmed by a majority vote
of the House and Senate. Current
law leaves the seat vacant
until the next election.
Sponsor Rep. Susannah
Whipps (U-Athol) did not respond
to repeated requests
by Beacon Hill Roll Call asking
her why she fi led the proposal.
LIMIT JUDICIAL APPOINTMENTS
TO 7 YEARS (H 34) â€“
Would limit judicial appointments
to seven years but would
allow judges to be re-appointed
by the governor for an unlimited
number of years every
seven years. The appointment
would have to be approved by
the Governorâ€™s Council as required
under current law.
Sponsor Rep. Vanna Howard
(D-Lowell) did not respond to
repeated requests by Beacon
Hill Roll Call asking her why she
fi led the proposal.

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 March 2731,
the House met for a total of
two hours and seven minutes
while the Senate met for a total
of four hours and fi ve minutes.
Mon. March 27 House 11:01
a.m. to 11:31 a.m.
Senate 11:35 a.m. to 1:18 p.m.
Tues. March 28 No House

No Senate session
Wed. March 29 No House

No Senate session
Thurs. March 30 House 11:03
a.m. to 12:40 p.m.
Senate 11:10 a.m. to 1:32 p.m.

Call in 1975 and was inducted
