While he was doing his overnight shift, Gianelli smelled and spotted smoke coming from the building and quickly sprang into action by calling the Everett Fire Department (EFD) and alerting residents to the danger to ensure they got out safely. “I was in the right place at the right time,” said Gianelli. He also told NBC10 Boston, “There were alarms going off , couldn’t tell from what. I got them up, got them out…I said, ‘You got to get out, we have a fi re.’” The EFD quickly responded with help from Metro Boston mutual aid to get the fi re under control. Firefi ghters also did all they could to save the presents under the Christmas Brian Gianelli tree on the fi rst fl oor. Mayor Carlo DeMaria expressed his gratitude to Gianelli and the fi refi ghters who responded to the fi re. “As we all celebrate this season, let’s be thankful for the people like Brian and our fi rst responders for keeping us all safe,” said Mayor DeMaria. City Council hears testimony from rape survivor; asks councillors to remove sex offenders from city payroll By Tara Vocino W endy Poste, a lifelong Everett resident, – who has been trying to bring to justice former Everett fi refi ghter Albert Murphy, who, she alleges, drugged and raped her in Salisbury in 2019 – shared her story, requesting that the council determine if a law can be created that will not allow any person convicted of a sexual assault to hold any position of city government employment, during Tuesday’s City Council meeting at City Hall. Poste said what was important was the fact that a fi refi ghter who was convicted by a jury of Indecent A&B of a child under the age of 14 – on probation for three years and on the sex off ender registry – was allowed to continue working. The public was unaware that they were in danger and that he was around children for the next 18 years, according to Poste. “The mayor, nor the Fire Chief will respond to my letters nor will they acknowledge me at all,” Poste said. “This behavior has got to stop; sexual violence is not acceptable.” Poste said she met with DeMaria and other city and elected offi cials. “You as City Council members have the power that will protect the citizens,” Poste said. “Are you all afraid, or is time for a change?” Poste said the city hasn’t acknowledged the fact that they screwed up. She said the fi re department knew that he was a sex off ender; however, the police department didn’t. City Clerk Sergio Cornelio, asked if it was a charter change issue, stated he would look into it. Ward 6 Councillor Al Lattanzi said he liked Murphy but he never knew he was a predator. “That guy had me fooled,” Lattanzi said. “That’s one of the worst things that can happen to a woman or child.” Ward 3 Councillor Darren Costa thanked Poste for sharing her story, adding to the motion any current staff members who have a sex off ender history on their record. Ward 2 Councillor Stephanie Martins asked about the CORI process, adding that women shouldn’t feel that they don’t have a voice. “What if they are already employed?” Martins asked. “How can they be removed?” A motion was made to refer to the city solicitor, city clerk, human resources and Legislative Aff airs Subcommittee, while looking into the CORI process.

With that said, the Crimson Tide understands they have to be ready for every challenge on the ice, and so for the second time in three weeks they dominated the Lynn Jets, this time to the tune of 13-1 in the home opener at Everett last Wednesday, Dec. 21. They bested Lynn the first time around, 8-1. The Everett boys also took on host Medford, and were quite competitive against them, before dropping a 7-4 decision. The local sextet actually led after two, 4-3. “It’s been a little tough on them only playing once a week, but we keep the practices fast-paced using a lot of game situations to maintain their sharpness,” said coach Craig Richards. “They know what’s at stake, and the importance of staying focused, while Beacon Hill Roll Call By Bob Katzen 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 influence.

This week, Beacon Hill Roll Call continues a series on highlighting the bills that were approved by the Legislature in 2022 and signed into law by Gov. Charlie Baker. $350 MILLION FOR ROADS AND BRIDGES AND MORE (H 4638) House 155-0, Senate 38-0, approved and Gov. Baker signed into law a $350 million package 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 to be distributed under the Chapter 90 program formula. Thepackage, 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 lanes, improvement of public transit, electric vehicles and other state transportation projects. “Chapter 90 provides vital road improvement funding to our communities,” said Sen. John Keenan, the Senate vice-chair of the Transportation Committee. “It is my hope that we will get to the point where we can provide a greater amount in a multi-year appropriation so that municipalities, big and small, will be able to more effectively plan.” Many local officials across the state continue to advocate for additional money to increase the funding and argue that the cost of repairing roads has increased by up to 40 percent while the state has kept this funding flat at $200 million for the past 11 years. (A “Yes” vote is for the bill.) Rep. Joseph McGonagle Sen. Sal DiDomenico Yes Yes ELECTION LAW CHANGES (S 2924) House 126-29,Senate 37-3, approved and Gov. Baker signed into law a bill making permanent the mail-in and early voting options used in Massachusetts in 2020 during the COVID-19 pandemic. The measure requires the secretary of state to send out mailin ballot applications, with return postage guaranteed, to registered voters before each presidential primary, state primary and biennial state election. It also allows registered voters to request a mail-in ballot for all elections in a single calendar year. Other provisions include reducing the registration blackout period from 20 days prior to an election to 10 days; electronic voting options for voters with disabilities and military service members; allowing a voter with disabilities to request accommodations including an accessible electronic ballot application, ballot and voter affidavit that can be submitted electronically; ensuring that non-felons who are incarcerated Craig Richards Head Coach just playing one game a week.” The Tide came out flying against Lynn last week to take a 5-0 lead after one period. They scored four more times and are currently eligible to vote are provided with voting information and materials to exercise their right to vote; and requiring the secretary of state to conduct a comprehensive public awareness campaign to publicize the new voting and registration options. “I’m proud to see the [bill] pass in the House and make its way to the governor’s desk,” said Sen. Barry Finegold (D-Andover), Senate Chair of the Committee on Election Laws and the co-sponsor of the bill. “When more people participate in voting, democracy wins.” “As a general rule, we should be promoting voting in person and on Election Day,” said Paul Craney, spokesperson for the Mass Fiscal Alliance. “Anytime a voter loses control of their ballot before it’s given to an election official, it’s possible it could be lost or altered. The Postal Service cannot guarantee a 100 percent delivery rate.” (A “Yes” vote is for the bill. A “No” vote is against it.) Rep. Joseph McGonagle Sen. Sal DiDomenico $11.3 BILLION TRANSPORTATION AND INFRASTRUCTURE PACKAGE (H 5151) House 153-0, Senate 39-0, approved and the governor signed an $11.3 billion transportation and infrastructure package that includes $1.375 billion for the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) modernization and $1.27 billion for non-federally aided roads and bridges. Other provisions include $114 million for airport improvements; $25 million for municipal road pavement improvements; $20 million for municipalities under the Complete Streets Funding Program; $25.5 million for the Mobility Assistance Program; mandating the MBTA to establish a 3-year safety improvement plan with measurable safety objectives; and directing the MBTA to contract with an independent third-party auditor to conduct annual safety audits. “This transportation bond bill Yes Yes in the middle stanza to seal the deal. Freshman Ben Saia of Everett scored his first career varsity goal in this contest. His brother David, a senior on the squad, helped paced the attack with two lamplighters. Revere senior Austin Annuziata also chipped in with two markers. Junior Liam Thompson of Mystic Valley notched his first score of the season. Mystic Valley sophomore Sophia Leung, and Everett seniors Michael Schovanec and Cam Couto stood out on defense for the locals against the Jets, according to Richards. Malden junior backup goalie provides Massachusetts with the key to unlock once-in-a-generation federal funding from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law,” said Sen. Brendan Crighton (D-Lynn), the Senate chair of the Committee on Transportation. “With these combined state and federal investments, we will be able to complete vital work on our highways, roads, bridges and public transportation systems, improving mobility for all residents of the commonwealth.” (A “Yes” vote is for the bill.) Rep. Joseph McGonagle Sen. Sal DiDomenico Yes Yes SOLDIERS’ HOMES OVERSIGHT (H 5106) House 153-0, Senate 40-0, approved and Gov. Baker signed a bill that would make major changes to the oversight and governance structure of the state’s veterans’ homes in Holyoke and Chelsea. The proposal follows the deaths of 77 veteran residents in 2020 as a result of a COVID-19 outbreak at the Holyoke facility. A key provision would elevate the Department of Veterans Services to a cabinet-level executive office with direct reporting to the governor and the ability to hire and fire the homes’ superintendents Other provisions include requiring superintendents of the two soldiers’ homes to be licensed as nursing home administrators and that they oversee day-to-day management and operation of the homes; requiring two annual home inspections by the Department of Health; creating an independent Office of the Veteran Advocate; maintaining local Board of Trustees and creating a statewide advisory Veterans’ Home Council. “This legislation contains important improvements that will benefit the men and women who have served our nation and will reside at our commonwealth’s Veterans’ Homes for the years to come,” said Sen. John Velis (D-Westfield), Senate Chair of the Committee on Veterans and Federal Affairs.“At the same time, Aaron Al-Marayati took over for starter Ben Rosa, a Malden sophomore, in the second and third periods, and came up with 10 saves. Rosa stopped eight first-period shots. “We have shown up for every game so far this year, and know we can’t take anybody lightly,” said Richards. The Everett co-op team will now head to Somerville on Jan. 4 to face the Highlanders, beginning at 5:30 p.m. They will then face non-league host East Bridgewater on Saturday, Jan. 7, at the same time, as the schedule begins to heat up in 2023. we know that this work must continue. The working group established will allow us to have oversight over this implementation, to identify what we need to improve on further, and to continue to work to ensure that the tragedy that took place at the Holyoke Soldiers’ Home never happens again.” (A “Yes” vote is for the bill.) Rep. Joseph McGonagle Sen. Sal DiDomenico Yes Yes BENEFITS FOR MILITARY FAMILIES (S 3075) House 153-0, Senate 39-0, approved and Gov. Baker signed legislation that would support military families who relocate to the Bay State by providing career stability for the spouses of service members and education for their children. Provisions include making it easier for military personnel and their spouses who move to the Bay State to get a Massachusetts professional license, if their job requires one, so that they can continue their civilian careers and provide for their families without interruption; requiring the Commissioner of Education to issue a military spouse a valid certificate for teaching if he or she holds a valid teaching license from another state; allowing children of military members to register and enroll in a school district at the same time it is open to the general population by waiving the proof of residency requirement until the student actually begins school; creating a purple-star campus designation for certain schools that are military-kid friendly and show a major commitment to students and families connected to the nation’s military; and requiring that a child or spouse of an active-duty service member in Massachusetts continue to pay the in-state, less expensive tuition rate at state universities even if the service member is assigned to move out of the state.

Here are five bills that were shipped off to a study committee where bills are rarely actually studied and are essentially defeated. It is a way to kill a proposal without holding a vote on the bill itself. The sponsoring representative of each bill did not respond to repeated requests by Beacon Hill Roll Call to comment on why they sponsored the measure, how they feel about their proposal essentially being defeated and whether they plan to refile the bill in 2023. HATE CRIME (H 2443) – Adds an “attack on a police officer which results in serious injury or death” to the definition of a hate crime in Massachusetts. Current law defines a hate crime as any criminal act “coupled with overt actions motivated by bigotry and bias including, but not limited to, a threatened, attempted or completed overt act motivated at least in part by racial, religious, ethnic, handicap, gender, gender identity or sexual orientation prejudice, or which otherwise deprives another person of his constitutional rights by threats, intimidation or coercion, or which seeks to interfere with or disrupt a person’s exercise of constitutional rights through harassment or intimidation.” Supporters say that the recent increase in attacks on police officers across the nation is outrageous and that attacks on police officers who risk their lives every day should be a special protected class under the state’s hate crime law. Sponsor Rep. David DeCoste (R-Norwell) did not respond to repeated requests by Beacon Hill Roll Call to comment on his bill. FALSE MARINE DISTRESS CALLS (H 2458) – Requires the Massachusetts Secretary of the Executive Office of Public Safety and Homeland Security and the Attorney General to establish regulations setting a penalty schedule for individuals making false marine distress calls. The penalties must include reimbursements by individuals making the false call of the costs incurred by the responding state agencies. Supporters say that these false calls can cost the state thousands of dollars and also tie up emergency response teams that could be responding to real distress calls. Sponsor Rep.

LICENSING OF SECURITY ELIGIBLE DESIGNATED BENEFICIARY I f you are a disabled or chronically ill individual or you are not more than 10 years younger than the deceased IRA owner or 401(k) plan participant, you can establish an Inherited IRA account in the name of the deceased account owner with you listed as the beneficiary. Sometimes this type of account is referred to as a Benefi ciary IRA account. If the account owner dies prior to the RBD (Required Beginning Date), the date at which RMD’s (Required Minimum Distributions) commence, then the annual RMD’s going forward for the benefi ciary of the IRA account will be based upon his or her own life expectancy. Distributions must begin no later than December 31st the year following the year of death. Furthermore, the benefi ciary may withdraw any amount at any time as long as the entire balance in the IRA account is withdrawn by December 31st year following the GUARDS (H 3798) – Requires security guards and watchmen to be licensed by the state. Supporters say under current state law, there is no such thing as a security guard or watchman license. They note that guards and watchmen are regulated through their Massachusetts security employer which is offi cially called a Watch Guard Patrol Agency. Sponsor Rep. Lindsay Sabadosa (D-Northampton) did not respond to repeated requests by Beacon Hill Roll Call to comment on her bill. EMERGENCY THERMAL BLANof to age 75 in calendar year 2033. When the account owner dies prior to the RBD, a non-eligible benefi ciary of an IRA account or 401(k) account, such as a child in the typical situation, may withdraw the monies in the account at any time as long as the entire balance is withdrawn by December 31st of the 10TH year folof the 10th date of death of the original IRA account owner. If the IRA account owner or 401(k) participant dies after the Required Beginning Date, the annual RMD’s going forward are based upon the benefi ciary’s age and life expectancy or the age and life expectancy of the deceased original account owner, whichever is longer. Distributions from the Inherited IRA account must begin no later than December 31st the year following the year of death of the original account owner. In this situation, the 10 year rule does not apply. A surviving spouse can simply roll the IRA account or 401(k) account of the deceased spouse into a Spousal IRA account and not have to take RMD’s until age 72. The RMD’s will be based upon his or her own life expectancy. The Secure Act 2.0, which is part of the most recent spending bill passed by Congress, extends the Required Beginning date to age 73 commencing in calendar year 2023. It will be increased lowing the account owner’s date of death. If the account owner dies after the RBD, the annual RMD’s are based upon the child’s age and life expectancy or the age and life expectancy of the account owner, whichever is longer, but the entire balance in the account must be distributed by December 31st of the 10th year following the date of death of the account owner. Distributions must begin no later than December 31st of the year followof ing the date of death of the original account owner. These new RMD rules prevent children of the IRA or 401(k) account owner from “stretching” distributions over their life expectancy. A $500,000 IRA, for example, would have to be cashed out at the rate of $50,000 per year resulting in much higher income taxes over a much shorter period of time, not allowing for the account to grow tax deferred over the life expectancy of the child. Joseph D. Cataldo is an estate planning/elder law attorney, Certified Public Accountant, Certified Financial Planner, AICPA Personal Financial Specialist and holds a master’s degree in taxation. KETS (H 3885) – Requires all emergency response vehicles, including ambulances, fi re apparatus, police vehicles and disaster vehicles, to be equipped with emergency thermal blankets—an aluminum fi lm blanket typically used to treat shock or hypothermia by retaining body warmth and preventing heat loss. Supporters say that these blankets are invaluable and have saved many lives. Sponsor Rep.

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 briefl ength 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.
