(Advocate photo) City of Revere Announces First-Time Homebuyer Downpayment Assistance Program Special to Th e Advocate T he City of Revere’s Aff ordable Housing Trust Fund has announced the formal launch of Revere’s First-Time Homebuyer Downpayment Assistance Program, which opened up for applications on Monday, August 19. First-time homebuyers with at least two years of established Revere residency and who meet income eligibility guidelines are eligible for up to $10,000 toward the purchase of a home in Revere in the form of a fully forgivable loan. Over a fi ve-year period, 20% of the loan is forgiven each year, if you use the home as your only residence. After fi ve years, the loan is converted to a grant. No payments are required of the applicant unless the home is sold, refinanced or ownership transferred during the five-year period. Funds may be used to purchase a condominium or singlefamily home at an aff ordable rate or market price rate. If purchasing a two-to-three-family home, the applicant must enter into an agreement with the city and the state to rent all non-owner-occupied units below market rate in accordance with state guidelines. This assistance is provided on a first come, first served basis until funds are exhausted. Applicants must be approved for a fi xed-rate primary mortgage loan with a lender (no cash buyers) and must apply prior to signing a purchase and sales agreement. Funding for this program was made possible via an earmark in the state budget toward the Aff ordable Housing Trust Fund for this purpose in partnership with Senator Lydia Edwards and Representatives Jessica Giannino and Jeff rey Turco, along with matching funds from the Aff ordable Housing Trust Fund — aligned with Mayor Patrick Keefe’s priority of advocating for aff ordable fi rst-time homeownership opportunities in Revere. “The Aff ordable Housing Trust Fund board voted unanimously to approve this program and we are excited for the opportunity to support fi rst-time homebuyers in Revere,†said Joe Gravellese, Mayor Keefe’s appointee as chair of the Aff ordable Housing Trust Fund’s Board of Trustees. “We are grateful for Mayor Keefe’s ongoing advocacy for helping Revere residents put down roots in the community, and for Senator Edwards, Rep. Giannino and Rep. Turco’s advocacy for these funds at the state level.†To be considered for the program, homebuyers are asked to submit a completed application, along with supporting documentation and proof of eligibility and priority status, until funding is exhausted. Applications, along with complete income and eligibility guidelines, are available at: City of Revere, Offi ce of Planning and Community Development, Mezzanine Level, Revere, MA 02151, or online via www.revere. org. For additional information, please contact Lorena Escolero at lescolero@revere.org. portant to begin with whole school messaging about the policy, including opening day assemblies at each school that outline cell phone rules. The district plans to also reach out to parents and caregivers to inform them of the rules and to share information about the problems big tech and social media often cause for adolescents and teens. All phones must be put away or out of sight and sound during classes. Any device that is turned on or making noise is subject to confi scation by the teacher or staff . According to the student handbook, there may also be additional disciplinary action and families will be notifi ed. Students are allowed to use their cell phones during lunch and free periods. “There will be lock boxes in each classroom to securely store phones during class,†Bowen told the committee. There have been some thefts of phones and students have Christopher Bowen RHS Principal complained about the lack of security. But the main difference is there will be an “all hands-on deck†strategy that will allow teachers to send out an email to fellow educators, administrators and staff when they are facing a problem with a student who refuses to surrender a phone. Fellow staff will go to the classroom to assist a teacher and avoid a confrontation. Committee members were pleased to hear administrators would be helping teachers implement a diffi cult and unpopular policy. “It’s good to take the teachers out of the equation,†said Committee member Anthony Caggiano. The committee asked about the cell phone policy at the middle schools, but Superintendent Dianne Kelly said it’s not a problem with middle school students. They are more compliant and not likely to refuse to give up a phone that a teacher has asked for, said Kelly.

Legislature passes wage equity legislation Bill boosts salary transparency, tackles unfair compensation for women and people of color n July 24, 2024, The Massachusetts Legislature took a strong step towards closing the gender and racial wage gap in the Commonwealth by enacting An Act relative to salary range transparency. The legislation requires employers with 25 or more employees to disclose a salary range when posting a position and protects an employee’s right to ask their employer for the salary range for their position when applying for a job or seeking a promotion. On July 31, Governor Maura Healey signed the Act into law as Chapter 141 of the Acts of 2024. Chapter 141 makes Massachusetts the 11th state to mandate pay transparency by requiring employers to disclose salary ranges, according to the National Women’s Law Center. The law builds on the Celebrating Our 52nd Year Chris 2024 Jessica Giannino State Representative Legislature’s 2016 passage of the Massachusetts Equal Pay Act, which prohibited wage discrimination based on gender and brought long-sought fairness and equality to workplaces in the Commonwealth. “With the passage of this legislation, Massachusetts is now one step closer to ensuring equal pay for equal work,†said House Speaker Ronald J. Mariano (D-Quincy). “Pay transparency will not only make our workplaces more equitable, it will also make Massachusetts more competitive with other states. I’d like to thank Leader Gregoire and the members of the conference committee, as well as all my colleagues in the House, Senate President Spilka and our partners in the Senate, for their important work on this legislation.†“This is simple: everyone deserves equal pay for equal work, regardless of your gender, race, ethnicity, or background,†said Senate President Karen E. Spilka (D-Ashland). “It is far too common for women and people of color to be paid less than their coworkers nationwide, and Massachusetts is not immune. By passing this bill, the Legislature stands united behind every worker— and with every business—in our steadfast commitment to the fundamental principle that every person has the right to be treated and compensated fairly in the workplace. I’m thankful to Senator Jehlen for her work on the conference committee, each of the conferees, Speaker Mariano, and our partners in the House for their work on this critical legislation.†“I am grateful for Speaker Mariano’s leadership and my colleagues support of this legislation. This bill is a huge Jeff rey Rosario Turco State Representative step in the right direction for workforce equity in Massachusetts,†said?Representative Jessica Giannino (D-Revere). “As a woman who has experienced many different sectors of the workplace, I have seen fi rsthand how vital this bill is and as a board member on the Massachusetts Caucus of Women Legislators I am proud that this priority has been passed.†“I am pleased to support this important legislation which aims to bring balance the rights of workers to equal pay with the right to contract. Prospective employees will have confi dence that their compensation will match their merit and qualifi cations and that they are not being unlawfully paid due to their gender,†said Representative Jeff rey Rosario Turco (D-Winthrop). The bill requires employers with more than 100 employees to share their federal wage and workforce data reports with the Executive Offi ce of Labor and Workforce Development, which would then be responsible for compiling and publishing aggregated wage and workforce date to help identify gender and racial wage gaps by industry. The bill makes a necessary update, following the Equal Pay Act of 2016, to prevent earned wage adjustments from triggering the anti-spiking provision. In Greater Boston, the 2023 gender wage gap was 21 cents, according to the Boston Women’s Workforce Council. This gap becomes more pronounced when comparing white men and women of color, where Black/African American women face a 54-cent wage gap, Hispanic/Latina women face a 52-cent wage gap, and Asian women face a 19-cent wage gap. ׉ Ú7cassandra://VfZmYiucwMCtImTvteXbU5teiWcA8EKBDhc6iJ8fjuIÍ.ÍÍ`Ì°Í×fÇšSc?+Ò*Æ׉EÚ×THE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, AUGUST 23, 2024 Page 3 NamaStay Sober to host Tina Hinojosa Sunset Yoga Class By Melissa Moore-Randall O n Sunday, September 8, a special yoga session will be held in honor of the memory of Tina Hinojosa.

Revere is home to many exceptional athletes, record breakers, and even folks just starting out: All of our residents and guests deserve a recreational space that is aesthetically pleasing, safe, and dependable. It is yet another part of Revere that we can be proud of.†The new turf is designed to provide superior playability, featuring a state-of-theart surface that closely mimics natural grass. Athletes will benefi t from optimal traction, cushioning and shock absorption, which are expected to reduce the risk of injury and enhance overall performance. Engineered to withstand the rigors of intense use, this turf boasts exceptional durability and resilience. Its advanced material composition ensures that it maintains its appearance and functionality over time, even under heavy traffi c and harsh weather conditions. Committed to environmental responsibility, the new turf is made from eco-friendly materials and is fully recyclable. The material eliminates the need for irrigation, signifi cantly reducing water usage, and minimizes the necessity for harmful chemicals and fertilizers. The low-maintenance nature of the turf will also save time and resources for facility managers, as its innovative design helps prevent debris buildup and simplifi es cleaning processes. Furthermore, the turf’s aesthetic appeal — available in a variety of colors and textures — off ers a visually appealing solution for sports fi elds, playgrounds and landscape design. City of Revere Parks and Recreation Director Michael Hinojosa expressed his enthusiasm for the project: “I am excited to announce this transformative project as the fi rst of many under Mayor Keefe’s administration.

TND, The Neighborhood Developers, have teamed up with North Suff olk Community Services to redevelop the existing group living home into a seven-story building with 56 aff ordable units and open offi ce space for the agency that provides services to the current residents. North Suff olk approached TND about two years ago when they were faced with upgrades for the building. Together, they worked out the design which has all the necessary permits and approvals. Representatives from TND presented slides outlining the costs and funding for the $40 million project. They did add however, that despite weaving together federal and state funding, they are $750 short. They didn’t come to the meeting with an ask, but thought the board might want to consider getting in on a project so in sync with its mission. TND is a nonprofit organization that builds aff ordable housing in Revere, Everett and Chelsea. TND Project Manager Cassie Woodhouse said the organization has been looking at ways to bring aff ordable family housing to the Shirley Ave. neighborhood. Board Chairman Joseph Gravellese expressed support for the project but said the board didn’t have the money to cover the project’s budget gap. The Board is in the process of fi nalizing their strategic plan, and Gravellese suggested they can consider some type of support for the project as they fi nish that process.

Upon receiving approximately $3,000 in cash, Kelly took back the demand note and fl ed the bank. A subsequent investigation allegedly identified Kelly on the Weymouth bank’s video surveillance and identifi ed Kelly’s fi ngerprints on the vehicle used as a getaway car following the Weymouth robbery. The investigation also allegedly revealed connections between Kelly and vehicles that were identifi ed as being in the vicinity of the Jamaica Plain and Hyde Park banks at the time of the robberies. Cell phone location data allegedly revealed that Kelly’s cell phone was present in the vicinity of each of the banks near the time of the robberies. The charge of armed bank robbery provides for a sentence of up to 25 years in prison, up to fi ve years of supervised release and a fi ne of up to $250,000. Sentences are imposed by a federal district court judge based on the U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and statutes that govern the determination of a sentence in a criminal case.

Bowen explained that different staff members would be in charge of notifying families when a student is absent. According to Bowen, getting families involved when students skip school or classes is often the solution and there will be caregiver awareness campaigns. When a student is absent, a parent or caregiver must call the main offi ce to report the absence. Students who miss more than nine days in a semester cannot take credit recovery if they fail the course; they would need to retake the course. There are also specifi c conditions for how a student must make up any classwork missed due to an excused absence. The student handbook includes a list of authorized excused absences. Students who have repeated unexcused absences will be considered “not in good standing,†and will not be allowed to participate in school activities. Bowen also said the district has a better and more eff ective truancy program. ׉ Ú7cassandra://gSf9FIoQMFOo-dmgGz5k_MzYzfwY5pJjiuL2_w4sPMEÍ,2Í`Ì°Í×fÇšSc?+Ò*Ê׉EÚÝTHE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, AUGUST 23, 2024 Page 7 Making Transit More Affordable: MBTA’s Income-Eligible Reduced Fare Program Launches September 4 Riders who qualify can apply online or at fi ve in-person locations around the MBTA service area in partnership with Action for Boston Community Development and the Massachusetts Association for Community Action network starting September 4. B OSTON — The MBTA announced this week that it is expanding access to reduced fares for income-eligible riders beginning Wednesday, September 4, 2024. The online application is simple and can be completed in English, Spanish, Portuguese, simplified Chinese, HaitianCreole, or Vietnamese. The launch will also include the availability of in-person support at fi ve locations around the MBTA service area in partnership with Action for Boston Community Development (ABCD) and the Massachusetts Association for Community Action (MASSCAP) network. An additional 31 locations will become available for service over fall 2024. Following input from critical stakeholder groups, a pool of “early adopters†of the program will be able to apply online beginning Tuesday, August 20, 2024. More information is available at mbta.com/income-eligible. A meaningful improvement for fare equity, the new program provides riders who are aged 18-64 and have low income with reduced one-way fares of approximately 50% off on all MBTA buses, subway, Commuter Rail, and paratransit (The RIDE) travel. This unlocks aff ordability for residents across the MBTA service area, including in the Gateway Cities. This expansion will be the fi rst reduced fare program to include The RIDE. As part of this change, Senior users of The RIDE will also be eligible for half-priced fares on both Standard and Premium RIDE trips. “The MBTA’s fi rst-of-its-kind income-eligible reduced fare program will truly make public transportation aff ordable for those who need it most,†said Governor Maura Healey. “For many of our low-income riders, we know the daily expense of commuting can be a burden, but this program will provide the fi nancial relief riders need and, as a result, encourage more people to take public transportation. We are thankful to the Legislature for their partnership in securing the funds in our FY 25 budget that make this program possible.†“Implementing low-income fares across the entire MBTA system is an important step toward our administration’s goal of making Massachusetts more equitable, more affordable, and more competitive,†said Lt. Governor Kim Driscoll. “This program will have a direct impact on the lives of so many commuters across the MBTA system and we’re grateful for the leadership of General Manager Eng, Secretary Tibbits-Nutt, and the legislature for getting this done.†“Connectivity is essential not only for the quality of life of individuals and their families, but for our collective long-term well-being,†said Massachusetts Transportation Secretary and CEO Monica Tibbits-Nutt. “When we make the MBTA more accessible for low-income riders, we are helping to make our transportation system more equitable — and our communities healthier, stronger, and more prosperous. I applaud General Manager Eng and his team for their commitment to uplifting our communities who rely on our public transit.†“This is a critical step in making transit more aff ordable for those that need it the most. I thank Secretary Tibbits-Nutt for her advocacy of this initiative, the Governor and the Legislature for their foresight to include funds in our FY24 and FY25 budgets to enable us to develop this program, our numerous partners at the EOHHS, the RMV, ABCD, MASSCAP, and Omicron Technology Solutions who were instrumental in helping us launch this program, and the many advocates who have for years championed this initiative, which will benefi t so many across all modes,†said MBTA General Manager and CEO Phillip Eng. “This is a meaningful step that allows all of the public that rely on mass transportation to use it, improving quality of life, boosting economic mobility, and connecting people and communities.†Riders with low income will be able to apply in multiple languages online at mbta. com/income-eligible and at fi ve in-person locations provided by ABCD and MASSCAP around the MBTA service area. Program participants can demonstrate eligibility via existing enrollment in programs with a cutoff of 200% of the federal poverty level (or lower), including Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), Transitional Assistance for Families and Dependent Children (TAFDC), Emergency Aid to the Elderly, Disabled & Children (EAEDC), MassHealth CarePlus, MassHealth Family Assistance, MassHealth Limited, MassHealth Standard, and MASSGrant. “ABCD is excited to be a partner in the Income-Eligible Fare Program with the MBTA, making transportation more accessible for those who need it the most,†said ABCD President and CEO Sharon ScottChandler. “This is the type of public and private collaboration that represents how equity is created for those who fi nd themselves struggling in the economic environment where the cost of living is at an all-time high.†“The Income-Eligible Reduced Fare program resonates with the anti-poverty mission of Community Action and meets a fundamental need of vulnerable people living with low incomes; its implementation will go miles in terms of supporting increased access to job training and employment,†said MASSCAP Executive Director Joe Diamond. “Along with ABCD as the lead agency, Community Action Agencies in the MBTA service area very much appreciate the partnership with the MBTA and are looking forward to connecting the people we serve with reduced fare cards via a streamlined and innovative approach to conferred eligibility.†As part of the program launch on September 4, RIDE customers enrolled in the Senior or income-eligible reduced fare programs will also be able to use an online form to link their reduced fare eligibility to their RIDE accounts and receive a discounted rate on Standard or Premium RIDE trips. Additionally, young people with low income already enrolled in the Youth Pass will be guided to enroll in the new program beginning on September 4 with the Youth Pass program discontinued on October 31. According to prior research, riders with low income are expected to take 30% more trips with a reduced fare, signifi cantly increasing mobility while saving on transportation costs. More than 60,000 riders are expected to qualify for and enroll in the program, which is expected to result in up to 8 million more trips per year. The initiative is thanks to the collaboration of multiple partners across the Commonwealth with the MBTA, including the Commonwealth’s Executive Offi ce of Health and Human Services (EOHHS) in allowing riders to demonstrate eligibility through existing Gerry D’Ambrosio Attorney-at-Law Is Your Estate in Order?

You also should be thinking about how to help them stay safe online and avoid being easy targets for online scammers. Parents: Be careful. Creating accounts on websites without permission: Social media sites are ripe with strangers with intentions that might be quite diff erent than yours. Many sites are designed to collect and sell unauthorized user details and behaviors to advertisers seeking targeted marketing. When creating an account, some kids might falsely create a birthdate to meet the minimum age requirement. Know what your child is doing online and keep track of the social media sites and accounts to which they have access. Contests and giveaways: Contests and giveaways often collect a hefty amount of personal information on their entry forms. Many are thinly disguised ways of collecting personal or fi nancial information that could lead to identity theft. Ensure your child doesn’t have access to banking or credit card information, and supervise the fi lling out of any forms. Phishing: Adults are not the only ones who receive spam and junk mail. Kids often get junk mail, and since they don’t have much online experience, they are more susceptible to clicking on links and answering questions they probably shouldn’t. While some emails might be legitimate, the last thing parents want, or need, is a $500 bill from a fraudulent website where a purchase might have been made — or worse — giving up personal information that can be tracked back to your home. Understand apps. Short for “applications,†apps are downloaded software that operates on various devices, such as smartphones. However, certain apps might collect and share personal information about your child or target your child with ads. Even free apps might include paid features, and children might not understand that some apps or game features cost money since they were labeled free to download. They might click on these so-called free games and cost parents or guardians a hefty bill at the end of the month. File sharing sites: Many websites allow children to download free media. A child might not realize that these sites often come with the risk of downloading a virus, allowing identity thieves to access the gaming device, personal computer or cell phone that’s being used. From there, the cyberthief can track fi nancial transactions and physical location or even tap into the household Wi-Fi without anyone knowing it. Tips on how to manage online privacy for the family: Know about the Children’s Advertising Review Unit (CARU). CARU’s self-regulatory program provides detailed guidance to children’s advertisers on how to deal sensitively and honestly with children’s issues. These guidelines go beyond the issues of truthfulness and accuracy to consider the uniquely impressionable and vulnerable child audience. Know about COPPA. The Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act protects the personal information of children under 13 on websites and online services — including apps. COPPA requires those sites and services to notify parents and get their approval before they collect, use or disclose a child’s personal information. However, if your nine-year-old tells Instagram they are 13 (the age requirement to use the app), this law won’t protect them. Know about FOSI. The Family Online Safety Institute brings an international perspective to our online lives’ potential risks, harms and rewards. The Good Digital Parenting web portal is an excellent resource for families looking to educate online safety measures in the Internet age. Read privacy policies together and understand privacy settings. Parents can have their children read the privacy policies and terms of use of any apps they want. While there might be a little grumbling that the policies “are too long†or that “it takes too much time,†remind them of the importance of knowing what they are signing up for and insist that they are read. Then, learn and understand the privacy settings on each app and game. Don’t share your location. Nearly every app automatically tracks a user’s location. From placing an online order for groceries or fast food to playing an online game, review the apps on all your devices to see which ones are tracking your location. Then, if it’s not needed, look in the settings to see how to disable this feature. Advise a friend or family member to avoid geotagging their posts with their location. Why? For example, you don’t want to announce the fact your family is vacationing out of state while the house sits empty. A simple review of the geo-tagged post will reveal where you are. Use parental controls if necessary. Although the best way to keep a child’s online privacy safe is to teach them to manage it themselves, it doesn’t hurt to have their backs by using parental controls. Today, Android, iOS and most web browsers offer built-in features that allow parents to monitor their children’s online activities, but third-party apps are also available. Research the option that works best. Follow through with the child to explain why you’re monitoring their activities. Share with care, and remember, personal information is like money. What is posted online can last a lifetime: Parents can teach children that any information they share online can easily be copied and is almost impossible to take back. Talk to them about who might see a post and how it might be BACK TO SCHOOL | SEE Page 13 Tony Bartolo, Owner Email: Tonys9942@aol.com ׉ Ú7cassandra://pMR7sRv4K2bXN4pRGy8c0n2UJXRXcvymo3rtxVR5rAcÍ(ÞÍ`Ì°Í×fÇšSc?+Ò*Ï×fÇšSc?+Ò*ÎÍ P̀בC’טšÍ(Í€u׉œ“׉ Ú7cassandra://HJF2Xk9eqYJZN8e_yndS2Kk8iqT3FCOdOgNWwqV8yc8ÎÅ#Í`ÍœÍ)׉ Ú7cassandra://GeWKmkfcZA_Jw4JBe7b2zFX3K0noHAaSljCJC2psm0wÍŒ²Í`ÍJÍà׉ Ú7cassandra://eIY9oYyqIXrX1lBTSyrpCn_39RtG7_SFJG5BVYqF5OUÍ,öÍ`Ì°Í×fÇšYc?+Ò*ÿטšÍ(Í(Í€u׉œ“׉ Ú7cassandra://gRBAIMnh0SmxViX_n1ZNSEOX_2NmNiB9tOuLHZ9e-OoÎ0rÍ`ÍœÍ)׉ Ú7cassandra://UCozJK2gTgirNx5DCXElEZNTowwf1Pv2JwtTAQtkpqgÍ…áÍ`ÍJÍà׉ Ú7cassandra://-tGmxxKFU6B93mRc2-AAHo0qpG7tT84zP2rMSY1tTDgÍ' Í`Ì°Í×fÇšYc?+Ò+“× ×fÇšYc?+Ò+Í Í8Ìò9×H»http://www.bbb.org/all/back× × Ј× ×fÇšYc?+Ò+Í s̢ͥ9×H´https://www.bbb.org/× × Ј× ×fÇšYc?+Ò+ÍEÍÌŸ9×H¶http://mbta.com/income× × Ј׉EÚaPage 12 THE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, AUGUST 23, 2024 By Tara Vocino T he Revere League for Special Needs hosted their Annual Summer Barbecue on Sunday at the Beachmont Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 6712.

Now is the time for educators to develop a plan to notify students, faculty and staff should there be a data breach or security problem once classes are back in session. Keep a clean machine and update devices that connect to the internet: Backing up critical lesson plans, personal information and assignments is the best defense against viruses, malware and other online threats. The only way to do this is to stay current on the most current software to protect against them.

Healey a maternal health bill that would require certifi ed professional midwives and lactation consultants to be licensed; encourage the creation of more freestanding birth centers; establish a grant program to address maternal mental health and substance use disorder; expand the statewide universal postpartum home visiting program; and mandate that insurers provide coverage for postpartum depression and major depressive disorder screenings for perinatal individuals. “Massachusetts has some of the best health outcomes in the country, but we have a glaring and persistent disparity in maternal health outcomes, especially when it comes to the experience of Black mothers,†said Sen. Julian Cyr (D-Truro), House chair of the Committee on Public Health. “The maternal health bill passed by the Legislature will expand access to care for all mothers and ameliorate the maternal mortality and morbidity crisis here in Massachusetts.†“I am proud that this important legislation will take positive steps toward addressing the disparities in maternal healthcare,†said Sen. Patrick O’Connor (R-Weymouth). “Strengthening access to physical and mental health in Massachusetts will provide a more inclusive support system that keeps parents and children healthy as they embark on their new journey. Every single family in our commonwealth deserves high quality care and support. Not only are we safeguarding the health of new families, but also laying a stronger foundation for future generations.†“While the commonwealth’s health care system is amongst the best in the world, inequities in maternal health remain prevalent, and certain aspects of care are woefully insufficient,†said House Speaker Ron Mariano (D-Quincy). “That’s why the reforms included in this legislation are so important, as they will help to close racial inequities and improve maternal health care statewide.†“Today the Legislature took much needed action to strengthen access to physical and mental health care for pregnant people and new parents in Massachusetts,†said Senate President Karen Spilka (D-Ashland). “This is an important step to help ensure all expecting individuals regardless of background or economic status have access to the health services they need. PROTECT FIREFIGHTERS (S 2902) — Gov. Healey signed into law 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 goes further and would prohibit any person or company from manufacturing, knowingly selling or distributing any equipment containing intentionally added PFAS chemicals. “Our fi refi ghters are our heroes,†said Gov. Healey. “They selfl essly run into harm’s way to protect their neighbors. It is essential that they have comprehensive information about what’s in their protective gear so that they can make informed choices that are best for them. This bill is an important part of our eff orts to protect the health, safety and wellbeing of our fi refi ghters in Massachusetts.†“Our fi refi ghters are among the most hardworking, selfl ess people in Massachusetts, operating under the most dangerous of conditions while risking their own lives to save others,†said State Auditor Diana DiZoglio who was an original sponsor of the measure. “For their dedication to our communities, we must do all we can to provide them with the supports they need to do this invaluable work.†“It is both joyous and a relief to fi nally witness the signing of this important legislation,†said Rep. Jim Hawkins (D-Attleboro) who originally fi led the bill in 2019. “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.†“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.†VETERAN SUICIDE AWARENESS (H 4862) — The House gave initial approval to legislation that would designate September 22 as Military Service Members and Veterans Suicide Awareness and Remembrance Day. The day would be in recognition and in honor of fallen service members and veterans and their families; to acknowledge that suicide among service members and veterans is an epidemic; to foster awareness of suicide among service members and veterans; and to call for suicide prevention measures for service members and veterans. “We brought forward this veteran suicide remembrance and awareness bill in direct response to the tragedies that BEACON | SEE Page 16 ׉ Ú7cassandra://OLgoxlNHXnky47lPOrUJTHUffnDtmW9wKPQmpaOGiN0Í%9Í`Ì°Í×fÇšSc?+Ò*Ò׉EÚ%oTHE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, AUGUST 23, 2024 Page 15 Massachusetts Unemployment & Job Estimates for July 2024 Labor force participation reaches 66%, highest rate since September 2020 B OSTON, MA — August 16, 2024 — The state’s July total unemployment rate was 3.5 percent, a 0.3 percentage point increase from the revised June estimate of 3.2 percent, the Executive Offi ce of Labor and Workforce Development announced Friday.

Dear Savvy Senior, How does Medicare cover cataract surgery? My eye doctor recently told me I’ve developed cataractsand should consider making plans for surgery in thenext yearorso. Almost 67 Dear Almost, Like gray hair and wrinkles, cataracts are an inevitable part of the aging process. Eventually, everyone (usually in their 60s) will develop cataracts, a condition that causes cloudy or blurry vision. The only way to correct this is through cataract surgery. Fortunately, Medicare does cover medically necessary cataract surgery, which includes removing the cataract and implanting a standard intraocular lens (IOL). This is a small, lightweight, clear disk that replaces the focusing power of the eye’s natural crystalline lens to restore clear vision. This procedure is performed using traditional surgical techniques or lasers. This coverage can be a substantial savings, since cataract surgery often costs about $1,800 to $2,800 per eye. Cataract surgery is usually an outpatient procedure, covered under Medicare Part B. Once you pay the annual Part B deductible, which is $240 in 2024, you’re responsible for the Part B coinsurance. That means you’ll pay 20 percent of the cost for covered services yourself. If you have a Medicare supplemental policy, also known as Medigap, you’ll have full or partial coverage for the 20 percent Part B coinsurance.? If you happen to be enrolled in a private Medicare Advantage plan, rather than original Medicare, you’ll also have coverage for cataract surgery. However, you may have to pay diff erent deductibles or copayments and need to use an in-network provider. You’ll need to call your plan to fi nd out its coverage details before you schedule surgery. What’s Not Covered Be aware that Medicare only covers cataract surgery with standard (monofocal) intraocular lenses, which improves vision at just one distance so you may still need glasses for close-up vision. Medicare will not cover premium (multifocal) intraocular lenses that can correct vision far away, up close and in between, so you can go glasses-free after surgery. Premium interocular lenses are expensive, costing approximately $1,500 to $4,000 per eye, which you would be responsible for if you choose to upgrade. Talk with your doctor about your options and costs before your surgery. Are Eyeglasses Covered? Even though Medicare usually doesn’t cover eyeglasses or contact lenses, it will pay 80 percent for one set of corrective glasses or contacts after cataract surgery. Medicare, however, limits its coverage to standard eyeglass frames and lenses. If you want to get deluxe frames, progressive or tinted lenses or scratch-resistant coating for glasses, you’ll need to pay those costs yourself. Medicare also requires that you purchase the glasses or contacts from a Medicareapproved supplier. Also, if you have any postsurgery complications or problems that are deemed medically necessary to address by a doctor, Medicare covers those expenses too. Any drops, antibiotics or other medication prescribed after your surgery would be covered by Medicare Part D or a Medicare Advantage plan that includes prescription drug coverage.

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 Legisthat is, residents not working but actively seeking work in the last four weeks. Estimates may not add up to the total labor force due to rounding.

The preliminary August 2024 lature 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.

Janice, fondly known as Jan to her friends and family, was a loving, generous, and compassionate person who brought joy and comfort to those around her. She was a thoughtful woman, always considering the needs and feelings of others before her own. Janice’s laughter, bubbly and infectious, was the kind that would echo through a room, leaving waves of happiness lingering in the air. No matter how short your interaction was with Jan, she surely left a lasting impression and a smile on your face. Janice had a long and rewarding career in Juvenile Probation, Edward W.
