Legal questions surrounding the procurement process remain unresolved, but AG Campbell is quick to come to the defense of her political allies. According to MA Offi ce of Campaign and Political (OCPF) records, “WE’RE STILL HERE!†Since 1947 MALDEN AUTO BODY Book online: Maldenauto.com 49 Robin St., Everett, MA 617-389-3030 * Maldenab@yahoo.com Over 79 years of exceptional service! Massone Family Owned & Operated AG Campbell has received several thousands of dollars in campaign donations from parties she is defending in the ongoing lawsuit. Donations from employees of Suffolk Construction are scattered throughout Campbell’s OCPF filings over the years. While it’s not unusual or illegal for campaign donations to be made to statewide offi cials from prominent businesses interests, it should have been recognized as a confl ict for the AG to consider when she voluntarily interjected herself into the Springfi eld courthouse scandal. Another illustration of potential personal motivation is the fact that AG Campbell served on the Boston City Council with Congresswoman Annaya Pressley for years and have since supported each other in career promoting endeavors. Pressley’s husband is part of the winning contract. “Taxpayers deserve confidence that major public construction projects are awarded fairly, transparently, and in full compliance with the law,†said Paul Diego Craney, Massachusetts Fiscal Alliance’s executive director. “Instead of supporting eff orts to ensure accountability, the Attorney General has chosen to defend the state’s ability to proceed with a contract that remains under judicial scrutiny and public outcry.†“The ongoing Springfield courthouse scandal doesn’t need another political connection to taint the process anymore than it has been so far. What we need is a fair and objective look at what happened so that another bad deal doesn’t come at the expense of Massachusetts taxpayers. The AG is using her offi ce, and taxpayer resources, to try to persuade the judge in the case. This will only taint the process even more considering the AG’s obvious confl icts in the matter,†continued Craney. “Once contracts are executed and construction begins, taxpayers often bear the cost of mistakes that could have been avoided through patience and transparency. The prudent course is to pause until the legal issues have been resolved,†Craney said. MassFiscal also questioned the Commonwealth’s priorities at a time when Massachusetts residents continue to face high housing costs, rising taxes and fees, and growing concerns about state spending. “Massachusetts families are expected to balance their budgets every day. State government should be held to the same standard before committing billions of taxpayer dollars to another major capital project. Officials should ensure every legal requirement has been satisfi ed and every taxpayer dollar is protected. Adding more politics to a situation that is infested with the appearance of political connections will only make matters worse,†concluded Craney. CORRECTION In last week’s Aug. 7 TH edition of the Revere Advocate, a story on page one incorrectly reported that the Zoning Board of Appeals approved a request for variances that would allow 1290 Northshore Road LLC to build a 17-story mixed-used building with 358 residential units on Northshore Road. The Zoning Board denied the variances. The Advocate regrets the error. ׉ Ú0s3://mI-aUs24RCkduEcIIrEDLzJesQ_2vieCcm1Dz2r_Ad4Í7aÍ`ÌÔÍ×j}åúÜqc*=3ìó׉EÚTHE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, AUGUST 14, 2026 Page 3 City Council tackles traffic safety, development and rental regulations By Anthony Boyd T he Revere City Council took up several issues aff ecting residents during its Aug. 10 meeting, with traffic safety, rental regulations, aff ordable housing and neighborhood cleanliness among the major topics of discussion. The meeting kicked off with a motion from Ward 5 Councillor Angela Guarino-Sawaya asking the city to explore a senior home safety visit program. The proposed program would bring together city departments, including the Fire Department and Department of Health, along with other local community organizations to provide free safety assessments for elderly residents. The proposed assessments could include replacing smoke detector batteries, changing furnace fi lters, identifying trip hazards, installing grab bars when possible, providing emergency contact forms and fall-prevention education. Adrienne Sacco-Maguire, the city’s emergency preparedness manager, said several of those services are already available through city departments and community partners but acknowledged that residents may not always be aware of them. “There are many departments doing the work,†she said. “Maybe people don’t know enough about it.†Sacco-Maguire highlighted partnerships with the Red Cross, Revere Fire Department and Mystic Valley Aging Services. She said Mystic Valley served nearly 2,000 homes in 2025, including home services, inspections, caregiver support and Meals on Wheels. The council placed the motion on fi le for further discussion. Traffi c safety also came up during the meeting, with councillors and residents discussing ongoing concerns about speeding and dangerous driving on city streets. Harris Street was among the areas discussed, with residents calling for additional measures to improve safety in neighborhoods where traffi c problems have been reported. Several residents raised concerns about speeding, dangerous driving and a lack of enforcement in residential neighborhoods. Carol Smith of Sewall Street said drivers coming from Beach Street onto Harris Street have been speeding through nearby residential streets and ignoring stop signs and “Do Not Enter†signs. She said the problem has created concerns for families and residents in the area. “I see it every day,†Smith said. “And that’s my concern. You need more enforcement.†Larry Smith, also of Sewall Street, called for additional enforcement against drivers who block intersections, a practice commonly known as “blocking the box.†Kathleen Heiser of Endicott Avenue described speeding on her street as “really scary,†particularly because of the number of families with young children moving into the neighborhood. Development was discussed during the council’s Zoning Subcommittee report.

The council then turned to a proposed unifi ed rental registry and inspection program. Ward 4 Councillor Paul Argenzio said the proposal would modernize the city’s decadesold rental regulations and help offi cials identify unsafe or illegal apartments before an emergency occurs. “This ordinance change is about making sure rental units are registered, safe and legal,†Argenzio said. Under the proposal, rental units would pay a $25 annual registration fee and could be inspected approximately once every fi ve years. Argenzio said inspections would be free if a unit is selected.

Governor Driscoll for signing the final budget for the state and supporting workforce solutions within our industry. “Massachusetts’ marine industry supports thousands of good jobs and is an essential part of our coastal economy,†said Governor Maura Healey. “This funding will help strengthen the industry by expanding workforce training and career and technical education, preparing more people for good jobs in the marine trades and helping businesses fi nd the skilled workers they need to grow.†“The marine trades offer great careers for people across Massachusetts, and we want more students and workers to see a future for themselves in this industry,†said Lieutenant Governor Kim Driscoll. “By expanding training and creating stronger pathways into these jobs, we can open doors for more people while supporting an industry that has long been an important part of our coastal communities.†Funding received by the state is utilized to support schools providing training within the recreational boating industry. Whether through existing or new programs, MMTA’s goal is to help the many educational facilities that train future leaders within the recreational boating industry. We recognize the signifi cance of workforce training in the industry and highlight the need for new employees. The MMTA, working with its educational trust, has also created various data points for the industry, including a school overview project and various workforce wage and benefi ts studies, one of which will be updated later in 2026. This information can be found on our primary job/career site: www.massboatingcareers.com, noted MMTA Executive Director Randall Lyons. “Supporting our maritime workforce means supporting the families, businesses, and coastal communities that rely on this industry every day,†said Senator Patrick M. O’Connor (1st Plymouth & Norfolk). “This workforce budget amendment will help expand career technical education and hands-on training opportunities, creating a stronger pipeline of skilled workers for our maritime sector. Investing in the next generation of marine professionals will help preserve the industry that has defi ned our coastlines for generations by addressing workforce shortages and growing our local economy.†Additional funding is utilized to: • Provide fi nancial assistance for employee training. • Provide fi nancial assistance through Tools of the Trade funding. *This program provides gift cards for new or existing employees to help build their toolboxes for their current positions within the industry here in Massachusetts. • Continue marketing outreach and development to connect current and future workers with available jobs, such as through www.massboatingcareers.com and MMTA’s workforce videos. Representative Jessica Giannino (16th Suff olk District) said, “Massachusetts’ recreational boating industry is a vital part of our economy, supporting thousands of jobs and generating billions in economic activity across the Commonwealth. This investment helps strengthen the workforce pipeline by expanding training opportunities, supporting career and technical education, and connecting more people with rewarding careers in the marine trades. I’m proud to work alongside my colleagues in the Boating Caucus and the Massachusetts Marine Trades Association to ensure this important industry has the workforce it needs to continue growing for years to come.†The recreational boating industry in Massachusetts has an economic impact of approximately $5 billion and employs approximately 18,000 men and women in the state. Here in Massachusetts, there remain hundreds — if not thousands — of unfi lled positions within the industry. We have jobs and careers; we need people to fi ll them. This amendment will go a long way in supporting MMTA’s workforce efforts here in Massachusetts. Established in 1964, the Massachusetts Marine Trades Association (MMTA) is the nonprofit statewide representative body for approximately 1,000 marine trades businesses in the Commonwealth that employ approximately 18,000 men and women. The mission of the Association is to further the interests of the marine trades and the boating public through the promotion of boating, participation in legislation, and professional improvement programs.

The reigning North American Boxing Federation (NABF) Champion, Hogan will throw-down with Ricardo “Bebo†Ruben Villalba (20-12-1, 8 KOs), of Argentina, in the 8-round (non-title fi ght) main event. The 25-yearold Hogan also headlined last November at Encore, also copromoted by Granite Chin and CES Boxing, in which he thoroughly dominated veteran Antonio Todd for an 8-round unanimous decision. Arguably the most promising New England middleweight prospect since Providence’s Demetrius “Boo Boo†Andrade, as well as the best 160-pounder in Massachusetts this century since “Dangerous†Dana Rosenblatt fought as a middleweight, Hogan plans to make a major statement on Aug. 29 that he’s outgrown New England boxing. A veteran of 219 amateur matches, Hogan has been boxing since he was 11. The 6’ 2†southpaw developed into a 2019 New England Golden Gloves Champion, and more on the national level, losing a split decision to Joseph Hicks in the 2019 Olympic Trials. He turned pro in early 2020. As an amateur, Hogan sparred with several pros, including Marck Deluca, who now trains “Frank The Tank†at Waymaker Boxing gym in Dorchester. Promoted by CES Boxing, he recently signed a managerial contract with Elite Boxing management (Rich Cappiello & Joe Lake). Hogan was a devastating puncher when he started training with Deluca, who was a standout amateur and pro boxer (30-4, 18 KOs). “I’m more of a boxer-puncher now,†explained Hogan, whose fi rst 10 fi ghts ended in stoppages (only 27 total rounds). “I’m not a brawler anymore, but I’m still exciting to watch! I remember walking out to the ring for my fi rst fi ght and it sounded crazy. I had never heard a crowd like that and I didn’t want to let people down. People were chanting and stomping their feet. As I started fi ghting higher level opponents, I realized that I needed to be a ‘clean’ fi ghter, and I still have a ways to go.†He added, “Even Canelo (Saul Alvarez) and Triple GGG (Gennady Golovkin) — they knocked out everybody early when the fi rst started — but you can’t keep fi ghting like that and last. I went back to basics with Mark: jab, hands up, and moving my head. It’s diff erent but that’s what I needed to do to be relaxed in the ring. You have to look in the mirror and work on slipping punches and ring generalship.†Hogan’s upcoming opponent, battle-tested Villalba, is a former World Boxing Organization (WBO) and Argentinian Super Middleweight Champion. He’s also become a middleweight gatekeeper, of sorts, having fought leading prospects, such as Hicks and Eric Priest. “He’s shorter than me, so he’s going to try and fi ght inside,†Hogan said. “He’s going to get drilled by my jab. I’ll stay relaxed, keep moving my feet as a throw punches, and break him down.†A gym rat who is always training when he isn’t working at his job as a licensed welder, Hogan grew into his power punching, but he’s matured in the ring and grown into a legitimate boxer. He can still put opponents to sleep, though, which is routinely known as “Tank Time!†Additional fights Scituate heavyweight Kevin “Big Gulp†Nagle (11-8, 8 KOs), the former WBC USA Silver and Massachusetts Heavyweight Champion, takes on Misfits Heavyweight title-holder Chase “Mr. Belt To Ass†Demoor (6-2-1, 6 KOs) in an 8-rounder. Former Massachusetts Middleweight Champion Anthony “The Gentle Savage†Andreozzi (7-6-1, 3 KOs), fi ghting out of Swansea, Mass., faces New Hampshire rival Ryan Clark (5-8-1, 2 KOs) in a 6-rounder. In 2024, Andreozzi won a 3-round split decision over Clark in a Granite Chin tournament. Milton bantamweight Jenn Perella (5-1, 1 KO), former 2024 National Golden Gloves fi nalist and 2-time New England Golden Gloves Champion, has dropped down one weight class for her 6-round bout versus Chantal Sumrall. Dorchester junior welterweight Jonathan de Pina (15-2, 7 KOs), a 2018 New England Golden Gloves Champion, fights Anthony “Toro Rojo†Mora (7-9-1, 4 KOs) in an another 6-rounder. Undefeated junior middleweight Jaydell “The Pazmanian Devil†Pazmino (9-0, 8 KOs), fi ghting out Londonderry, New Hampshire, who was a 2020 New England Golden Gloves Champion, risks his perfect pro record against upset-minded Alfred Raymond, of Warwick, R.I., in a 6-rounder. Five-time national amateur champion Melanie “The Pitbull†Costa (3-1, 1 KO), a Norton police offi cer, returns to the ring in a 4-round bantamweight encounter with Brittany Dukes. Revere light heavyweight Leonardo Ladeira (8-11-1, 7 KOs) will fi ght Everet DeSilets in a 6-round fi ght. Former college basketball player Barrett Hanlon, of Hopkinton, Mass., will make his pro debut against Ratavious Thrasher in a 4-round light heavyweight match.

Primary Features Close Markey-Moulton Senate Race, Governor’s Council Contest By Neil Zolot Tuesday, September 1 is primary election day when the Democratic and Republican parties will choose their candidates for the federal and state Senate and House of Representatives and various state and county-wide offi ces in November. The marquee race is the Democratic race for U.S. Senator with current 6th District Representative Seth Moulton challenging longtime incumbent Ed Markey. In the Republican primary for the seat, John Deaton is running unopposed. Markey is leading in most polls, but only by about 6 points, around 41-35%. Everett Democratic City Committee Chairman Mark Puleo expects it to be close but thinks Markey will carry Everett. “He has a long connection to Everett having been its former Congressman,†he said, referring to Markey having once been the 7th District Representative. Chelsea Republican City Committee member and City Councilor Todd Taylor also thinks the Markey-Moulton race will be close. Puleo disagrees. “The Democratic candidate for Senator will win,†he said.†The majority of voters in Massachusetts want a Democratic Senator.†Another high-profi le race is for Governor, with incumbent Maura Healey running unopposed on the Democratic side and Michael Minogue and Brian Shortsleeve in the RepubEdward Markey U.S. Senator lican race. A recent New York Times poll has Minogue leading 46-15%. Taylor expects Minogue to win based on the fact that he’s more conservative and has his own fi nancial resources to finance a campaign. “The Republican base is overwhelmingly conservative,†he said, while characterizing Shortsleeve as a moderate candidate like former Governor Charlie Baker. He added that Minogue is like Baker in the respect his business management style is similar, which he thinks will help him in November. “There are problems Governor Healey has,†he said, referring to benefi ts given to undocumented immigrants. He also thinks it will be “an uphill battle†for the Republican nominee even though the state has elected a number of Republican governors, including John Volpe, Francis Sargent, William Weld, Baker and Paul Cellucci, while acknowledging it will be even harder in the Senate race givFor Advertising with Results, call The Advocate Newspapers at 781-286-8500 at Seth Moulton U.S. Representative en Massachusetts has not had a full-term Republican Senator since Ed Brooke in the 1970s. Scott Brown served only as an Interim Senator from 20102012 following the death of Ted Kennedy. Puleo also thinks Minogue will win the primary election but not defeat Healey. “He seems to attract Republican voters, but I think Governor Healey has done a great job, and voters will give her another term,†he said. For Lieutenant Governor, incumbent Kim Driscoll is running unopposed in the Democratic primary and Shawn Oliver is running unopposed in the Republican primary. Another competitive race is for the Governor’s Council 6th District seat, with incumbent Terrence Kennedy and Diann Bayliss running in the Democratic primary, but no one is running in the Republican primary. The Governor’s (or Executive) Council acts a check and balance against the Governor’s powers, performing many of the same tasks the Senate does on the federal level, including confi rming appointees to offi ces and state judges. “Everyone who runs for this offi ce spends a lot of time educating people about it because most people don’t know much about it,†Kennedy joked. Much like the Vice President in the Senate, the Lieutenant Governor presides over the Council and votes only in case of a tie. Each district covers fi ve state senate districts, making some bigger than some congressional districts. The 6th includes Senator Sal DiDomenico’s district, which includes Everett, Chelsea and parts of Cambridge and Boston, but also communities as far away as Marblehead, where Bayliss lives, to the northeast and Winchester to the northwest and Lynnfi eld, where Kennedy lives, and Wakefi eld along Route 128. Kennedy grew up in Everett and has a law offi ce here. While acknowledging there are few competitive races for Everett voters, he thinks the retirements of State Senator Jason Lewis, whose district includes all or parts of Melrose, Wakefield and Winchester, and State Representative Brad Jones, whose district includes Lynnfi eld, will bring out voters in those communities. “I hope to win, but you never know,†he conceded. He and Bayliss have been at civic events all over the district, including Bayliss being at Everett’s Independence Day celebration at Glendale Park on June 27 and recent Farmers’ Markets. Kennedy is out there, too, although some personal issues prevented him from campaigning as much as he’d have liked in the last few weeks. Bayliss is also an attorney and has had a lot of experience with immigration issues. She’s running, in part, to seat judges sympathetic to the needs of immigrants regarding visas, particularly immigrant juvenile visas. “I’ve been involved with immigrants a long time and want to be more involved,†she said. “Immigrants are subject to deportation until they get a visa, but are afraid of the system. There are certain criteria children need to meet to get a visa. Judges should not just be well educated, but compassionate.†Puleo expects Kennedy to win or at least carry Everett, but noted, “I can’t remember an earlier challenger making as much of an eff ort as Bayliss.†“She’s worked hard, but I don’t worry about what my opponent is doing,†Kennedy said. “I worry about what I need to do.†Marian Ryan and Marc Solet are both running for Middlesex County District Attorney in the Democratic primary with no candidates on the Republican side. For Attorney General incumbent Andrea Campbell is running unopposed in the Democratic primary with Michael Walsh running unopposed in the Republican primary. For Secretary of State, incumbent William Galvin is running unopposed in the Democratic primary with no candidates in the Republican primary. For Treasurer, Deborah Goldberg is running unopposed in the Democratic primary with Elizabeth Dionne running unopposed in the Republican primary. For Auditor, Diana DiZoglio is running unopposed in the Democratic primary with no candidates in the Republican primary. For the 7th District seat in Congress, incumbent Ayanna Presley is running unopposed in the Democratic primary with no candidates in the Republican primary. For State Senator, incumbent DiDomenico is running unopposed in the Democratic primary with no candidates in the Republican primary. For State Representative, incumbent Dan Ryan is running unopposed in the Democratic primary with no candidates in the Republican primary. For Middlesex County Register of Probate, Tara DeCristofaro is running unopposed in the Democratic primary with no candidates in the Republican primary. Voter turnout is hard to predict. It was over 50% in the November 2024 presidential election and over 30% in the 2025 Mayoral election, but only 12.49% in the 2024 presidential primary and under 20% in the November 2023 city election. Although City Clerk Sergio Cornelio reports the number of registered voters has risen from 24,500 to just over 25,000 since last year, he still expects a low turnout. “The turnout has been low in the past few years and I believe this election will be no different with around 4,000 voters at most,†he said. Puleo thinks the election being before Labor Day, which falls on Monday, September 7, will also be a factor in a low turnout. “The election is off the radar,†he said. ׉ Ú0s3://-umf-oUT9C_rbOf376zZrVNk9IkRkdeWgJTDYMuUV18Í2Í`ÌÔÍ×j}åúÜqc*=3ìû׉EÚÛTHE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, AUGUST 14, 2026 Page 11 More Than an Itch: Treating and Preventing Summer Insect Bites and Health Risks By Dr. Ana Stankovic, chief medical offi cer, UnitedHealthcare of New England B etween backyard barbecues, beach vacations, and hiking trails, warmer weather encourages us to spend more time outdoors. But alongside all the summer fun in the sun comes the often-overlooked health risk of insect bites and stings. Many people consider insect bites to be nothing more than an itchy inconvenience. A mosquito bite, a bee sting, or a tick found after a hike may seem like an inevitable part of enjoying nature. However, some bites and stings can lead to serious health concerns, including severe allergic reactions and diseases. West Nile is one of the most common mosquito-borne diseases in the continental United States, and Lyme disease is one of many illnesses caused by a pathogen ticks may carry.1 The challenge is that it’s often diffi cult to tell the difference between a harmless insect and one carrying disease, and many tickborne diseases share signs and symptoms. That’s why prevention and awareness are so important. Nearly one in 10 Americans experiences a tick bite each year,2 yet nearly two-thirds of adults report that they rarely or never check themselves for ticks after spending time outdoors.3 Knowing how to reduce insect bites, identify symptoms, and understand when to self-care vs. seek medical attention can create an enjoyable, pest-free summer. Spot the Signs Most insect bites cause mild reactions such as itching, redness, warmth or minor swelling, and these symptoms can typically be managed with basic fi rst aid. Washing the aff ected area, applying an ice pack, and using over-the-counter anti-itch creams or antihistamines may help relieve discomfort. However, certain symptoms should never be ignored. Diffi culty breathing or swallowing, swelling of the lips or throat, nausea, vomiting, cramping or severe headaches may indicate a serious allergic reaction and require immediate medical attention. Importantly, half of all fatal reactions to insect stings occur in people with no previous history of severe allergies, underscoring the importance of recognizing warning signs quickly.4 Any tick bites that lead to fever and chills, aches and pains, fatigue, or rashes should be addressed by a healthcare provider. Tickborne pathogens can cause fever and rashes that can vary or be absent, along with diff erent associated symptoms depending on the specific pathogen. Based on your symptoms, examination, the geographic region where you were bitten, and lab results, a medical professional can develop an appropriate treatment plan. Before the Bite Prevention remains the best defense against bugrelated illnesses. Wearing long sleeves and pants when possible, using EPA-registered insect repellents and taking precautions around your home can signifi cantly reduce exposure. For ticks, a thorough body and scalp check after spending time outdoors is essential, particularly because ticks can live in any grassy, brushy or wooded area. This is especially important in Massachusetts, which has a high incidence of reported Lyme disease cases.1 Mosquito prevention matters just as much.

Specifi cally, Wakefi eld and State Police fi re investigators are interested in photos and video shot during the fire’s earliest stages. Based on their eff orts so far, they believe the fi re began inside the building, but the catastrophic damage has posed major challenges in identifying exactly where. “We know this fi re brought a large number of people to the area as it grew in size,†said Chief Purcell. “What we’re looking for now are photo, video, and observations from people who were present when the fi re was fi rst noticed.†Anyone with photo, video, or other information regarding the fire’s early stages is asked to contact Deputy Chief John Walsh of the Wakefi eld Fire Department at 978-3825552 or the State Police Fire & Explosion Investigation Unit at 978-567-3310. “We are not investigating this as a suspicious fi re at this time,†said State Fire Marshal Davine. “Our main interest right now is identifying the area of origin, which will help determine the exact cause.†The Wakefield Fire Department responded to 102 Foundry Street just after 3:00 pm on August 7. They found heavy smoke and fl ames on arrival at the single-story brick structure and immediately undertook eff orts to contain the blaze and protect adjacent properties. The building, a disused warehouse with a heavy fi re load and extreme clutter inside, sustained catastrophic damage in the fi re, which went to six alarms and drew mutual aid from across the region. Firefighters had the blaze under control by about 6:00 pm and remained on scene for hot spots and overhaul until early the next morning. Heavy equipment was used to level the structure due to its instability. Please save the date!

Your Local News in 6 Languages! www.advocatenews.net .advo news.net PRIMARY RESIDENCE OF A MARRIED COUPLE T he general rule is that the primary residence, if located in Massachusetts, and if a spouse is living in the home, will be considered a non-countable asset for Medicaid eligibility purposes with respect to the spouse that is applying for MassHealth, whether in a long-term care facility or whether dealing with a community MassHealth application, such as the Frail Elder Waiver Program. Furthermore, Massachusetts would not be able to place a lien on the home while the community spouse (one not applying for MassHealth) is living there. Also, there is no limit on the value of the equity in the home so long as the community spouse is still living in the home. If, on the date of admission into a nursing home, the principal residence is held jointly (e.g. husband and wife, as tenants by the entirety), this form of ownership should not continue. If the healthy spouse were to suddenly die prior to the institutionalized spouse, the principal residence would then vest in the institutionalized spouse and be subject to a subsequent MassHealth lien for nursing home benefits paid. This is known as estate recovery. MassHealth can seek reimbursement from the probate estate of the nursing home spouse. When a decedent’s estate needs to be probated, the Division of Medical Assistance must be notifi ed of the probate proceedings by the law fi rm providing the probate services via certifi ed mail, return receipt requested. The Estate Recovery Unit would then be able to fi le a claim for reimbursement for MassHealth benefi ts paid on behalf of the decedent. You can transfer the home from the institutionalized spouse to the healthy spouse any time as there are no disqualifying transfers as between spouses. There is no five-year look-back period applicable when spouses are involved in the transfer. Once in the healthy spouse’s name, and once MassHealth is approved, the healthy spouse can transfer the home to an irrevocable trust if that makes sense in the overall estate/Medicaid plan in order to start the fi ve-year look-back period in the event the community spouse ends up needing skilled nursing home care down the line. The transfer by the community spouse to an irrevocable Trust would not be made until after the institutionalized spouse is approved for MassHealth benefi ts. The Estate Recovery Unit cannot place a lien on the home as long as the spouse not applying for MassHealth benefi ts is still living in the home. It is best for the community spouse to transfer the home to an irrevocable Trust as opposed to transferring the home to the children with a reserved life estate. If the home is later sold and the children do not live there, the children would have to pay a capital gains tax based upon the percentage of the gross sales price allocable to the remainder interest. The community spouse will be able to take advantage of fi ling a joint income tax return with the institutionalized spouse and take advantage of the $500,000 capital gains tax exclusion on the sale of the principal residence. You have to utilize the IRC Section 7520 interest rate applicable for the month of the sale of the home, along with Book Aleph to determine the amount of gross sales proceeds allocable to the life tenant, based upon his or her age. Another reason why to utilize an irrevocable Trust, as opposed to a deed to the children with a reserved life estate in the parent, is if one of the children were to die before the parent, the interest in the real estate would constitute a probate asset. The interest in the real estate would also be exposed to creditors or a spouse in a divorce proceeding. The community spouse would also have to get the permission from the children in order to sell the house. The irrevocable Trust avoids all of these potential problems. Joseph D.

These insects are attracted to bright colors, stronglyscented perfumes, and accessible food and drinks, so being mindful of clothing and covering your picnic basket can keep bees away. Additionally, stepping on stinging insects while walking barefoot or in flip flops should be avoided for those worried about allergic reactions. Summer should be a season of fun, exploration, and meaningful time spent outside. By treating insect bites and stings as more than a seasonal nuisance and taking a few simple preventive steps, we can better protect ourselves and our families and enjoy the outdoors more safely. 1 Centers for Disease Control and Prevention 2 Ticks and Tick-borne Diseases, 2024 3 YouGov, 2021 4 Immunology and Allergy Clinics of North America, 2007 ׉ Ú0s3://2GzXdCvT4P09XrnS4EpG-JkCa2fnC5_-WzZ3o5sU14MÍ.áÍ`ÌÔÍ×j}åúÜqc*=3í×j}åúÜqc*=3ìÿÍ ªÍrבC’טšÍUÍru׉œ“׉ Ú0s3://HcEBWmCzXrVWRGZUceByf312HVAQJpiJ_51L_-EUcQEÎ ¾¹Í`Í'Íp׉ Ú0s3://4hkNjiZCuCkz_C0akTR0ZrYvbaSa46QeYHCg9fAWJZ8ͼÍ`ÍÍà׉ Ú0s3://WAxEk6eMJCk6GUyFHF9EkIXoghL_fqv0Q5ci8fib3lwÍ-ßÍ`ÌÔÍ×j}åýÜqc*=3í<טšÍUÍUÍru׉œ“׉ Ú0s3://1RY7pTyperRgZE3YTZ98eF5bjhmlbD_D_YxUQivRuvoÎìòÍ`Í'Íp׉ Ú0s3://Dh6uh1dPrnmiG53lpKFlYS4JFa3t2z9DCgSPyInz7oIÍÀàÍ`ÍÍà׉ Ú0s3://ZNJdk_8iIXSQTOfk99qx4Ta-IlINvPIUIN1YeP9DWYEÍ3œÍ`ÌÔÍ×j}åýÜqc*=3í=›× ×j}åýÜqc*=3íOÍ(Í8Ìâ9×HÚ mailto:questions@savvysenior.org× × Ј× ×j}åýÜqc*=3íNÍÍÿ:9×H¯http://dol.gov/× × Ј× ×j}åýÜqc*=3íMÍzÍêÌš9×H¼http://hud.gov/dsrs/refunds.× × Ј× ×j}åýÜqc*=3íLÍÍ«g9×H¶http://irs.gov/refunds× × Ј× ×j}åýÜqc*=3íKÍzÍ‚Ì»9×HÚ"http://closedbanks.fdic.gov/funds.× × Ј× ×j}åýÜqc*=3íJÍ°Í̦9×Hºhttp://eapps.naic.org/life× × Ј× ×j}åýÜqc*=3íIÍ—Íj9×H´http://unclaimed.org× × Ј× ×j}åýÜqc*=3íHÍÍ%G9×H°http://pbgc.gov/× × Ј× ×j}åýÜqc*=3íGͥͽ3 9×H­http://ts.com× × Ј× ×j}åýÜqc*=3íFÍÙÍj} 9×H¶http://lostandfound.do× × Ј× ×j}åýÜqc*=3íEÍŠÍ:m9×H³http://ingMoney.com× × Ј׉EÚ)ZPage 16 THE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, AUGUST 14, 2026 House 158-0, approved a bill By Bob Katzen If you have any questions about this week’s report, e-mail us at bob@beaconhillrollcall.com or call us at (617) 720-1562 THE HOUSE AND SENATE: Beacon Hill Roll Call reports local representatives’ votes on roll calls from recent sessions. There were no roll calls in the House or Senate last week. ALZHEIMER’S DISEASE AND OTHER DEMENTIAS (H 5613) House 155-0, approved and sent to the Senate legislation that supporters say would strengthen dementia care, improve support for families and caregivers, expand workforce training and enhance public health eff orts to address Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias. They noted the bill takes a comprehensive approach to improving care for individuals living with dementia while equipping health care providers, fi rst responders, hospitals and state agencies with the tools and resources needed to better serve patients. The legislation establishes mandatory dementia training programs for municipal and state law enforcement offi cers, firefighters and emergency medical services personnel including a minimum of two hours of initial instruction followed by biennial continuing education; expands notification requirements so that families or legal representatives are informed of an initial diagnosis of any dementia; enhances protections for patients and families by requiring acute care hospitals to allow medically appropriate visitation for patients living with Alzheimer’s disease or other dementias, as well as those exhibiting symptoms of cognitive impairment; expands the state’s Health Care Workforce Loan Repayment Program to provide loan repayment assistance for professionals specializing in geriatrics and geriatric psychiatry, in order to help recruit and retain clinicians with expertise in caring for older adults; and requires the Department of Public Health to expand public awareness eff orts on brain health and dementia through culturally relevant education campaigns. “Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia are devastating illnesses that profoundly affect not only those diagnosed, but also the families and caregivers faced with the challenges of caring for their loved one,†said House Speaker Ron Mariano (D-Quincy). “This legislation is about ensuring that the commonwealth is doing all that it can to care for individuals living with Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias by strengthening training, by improving coordination across the health care system and by investing in a workforce that is better prepared to provide the care that diagnosed individuals need.†“While the commonwealth is a global pioneer in advancing Alzheimer’s Disease and related dementia treatment and prevention, we can’t rest on our laurels,†said Rep. Tom Stanley (DWaltham), House Chair of the Committee on Aging and Independence. “The prevalence of Alzheimer’s and related dementia is expected to increase substantially over the next decade and at the same time we are experiencing workforce challenges and a shrinking pool of family caregivers.†“With passage of this legislation, we demonstrate our continued commitment to Massachusetts residents living with Alzheimer’s or a related dementia, as well as to their caregivers and healthcare providers,†said Rep. Danielle Gregoire (D-Marlborough) the sponsor of an earlier version of the measure. “This work began eight years ago with the passage of landmark Alzheimer’s legislation that made Massachusetts a national leader. Despite that work, dementia diagnoses are becoming more frequent, and patients and their caregivers need more help. As scientifi c advances continue to improve treatment options and make headway on a cure, so too must we in government adapt and implement policy such as the one we voted on today that will change lives for the better.†(A “Yes†vote is for the bill.) Rep. Jessica Giannino Yes Rep. Jeff Turco Yes PRIMARY CARE AND HEALTH CARE AFFORDABILITY (H 5630) that supporters say would expand access to primary care, shift the health care system toward prevention, invest in the health care workforce, support hospitals and community health centers, improve affordability by lowering prescription drug costs and increase accountability across the health care system. They noted the measure establishes historic primary care investment targets; creates advanced primary care payment models that reward prevention and coordinated care; expands access to innovative models of care; creates an expedited determination of need process to expand equitable care access; and strengthens oversight to ensure primary care investments actually improve access, lower costs and support a sustainable, patient-centered health care system. The Senate has already approved a different version of the proposal and a House-Senate conference committee has been appointed to hammer out a compromise version. Provisions of the House bill include $25 million to ensure there are a suffi cient number of health care professionals by funding scholarships, student loan repayment, primary care career pathways and workforce recruitment and retention; establishment of statewide primary care investment targets that gradually increase spending to 9% by 2030, 12% by 2033 and 15% by 2036; expanding the allowable uses of the Commonwealth Federal Matching and Debt Reduction Fund to help the state respond to an estimated $3.5 billion loss of federal funding; expanding access to health care by strengthening communitybased providers and allowing more patients to receive care where they live; establishing safeguards for AI in health insurance utilization review to ensure technology supports, not replaces, clinical decision-making; and reducing out-of-pocket prescription drug costs by requiring most manufacturer rebates to be applied at the pharmacy counter. “When primary care leads the way on patient wellness, the entire system benefi ts,†said Rep. Kathy LaNatra (D—Kingston), the chair of House Committee on Federal Funding, Policy and Accountability. “This legislation will help move more of our health dollar toward high-value primary care that delivers better outcomes for patients at a lower cost. It invests in the care that keeps people healthy and prevents disease, it strengthens our primary care workforce to make sure every resident of the commonwealth can access a primary care provider and it ensures that pharmaceuticals remain accessible and aff ordable.†“For many Massachusetts residents, an unsustainable rise in health care costs has made it increasingly diffi cult to access and aff ord basic health care services,†said House Speaker Ron Mariano (D-Quincy). “That’s why this legislation is so important, as it makes critical investments in primary care and lowers outof-pocket costs for prescription drugs.†(A “Yes†vote is for the bill.) Rep. Jessica Giannino Yes Rep. Jeff Turco Yes CANCER SCREENINGS FOR FIREFIGHTERS (H 5631) House 153-0, approved and sent to the Senate a bill mandating free insurance coverage of cancer screenings for fi refi ghters. The fi refi ghters would not be subject to co-payment, deductible, coinsurance or any out-ofpocket expenses. The screenings would cover colon, lung, bladder, oral, thyroid, skin, blood, breast, cervical, testicular and prostate cancers. The measure provides that the fi rst screening would be conducted no later than three years after the firefighter starts the job, with subsequent screenings happening every three years. Supporters said that fi refi ghters are more likely to get cancer than the general public and argued that these heroes need and must have early and regular access to life-saving cancer screenings. They noted that the Occupational Cancer Research Centre attributes higher rates of sickness to greater exposure to cancer-causing hazards through inhalation of smoke, combustion by-productions and forever chemicals (PFAS) used in fi re protection gear. Rep. John Lawn (D-Watertown), House chair of the Committee on Health Care Financing and the sponsor of the original version of the proposal, did not respond to repeated requests from Beacon Hill Roll Call asking him why he sponsored the measure. (A “Yes†vote is for the bill.) Rep. Jessica Giannino Yes Rep. Jeff Turco Yes ALSO UP ON BEACON HILL IMMIGRANTS (H5620) — Gov. Healey signed into law the PROTECT Act that supporters said would establish statewide standards governing interactions between state and local law enforcement and federal immigration enforcement. They said the measure would create among the strongest protections in the nation for residents who have immigrated to their communities; strengthen due process protections; limit civil immigration enforcement in courthouses, public school grounds, hospitals and other sensitive locations; expand protections for victims of crime; and increase transparency, accountability and clarity for correctional facilities and law enforcement relative to civil immigration enforcement. Provisions bar Massachusetts law enforcement agencies from signing new deputization agreements with federal immigration authorities, except in narrow, criminal-law-focused arrangements that meet additional safeguards; prohibit civil immigration arrests without a judicial warrant at schools, childcare centers, medical facilities and courthouses; establish a civil cause of action against federal offi cers who violate a resident’s constitutional rights, putting them under the same accountability standards as state and local police; keep state and local police out of federal civil immigration enforcement, barring the use of local resources for that purpose, or detention, based solely on a civil immigration detainer; and protect immigrant crime victims, including traffi cking survivors, who assist law enforcement as witnesses. “Today, Massachusetts is standing up for what’s right and taking action to keep our people and our communities safe,†said Gov. Healey. “The PROTECT Act is the strongest law in the country to protect people from ICE, because no one should be afraid to send their child to school, seek medical care or fear reporting a crime or appearing in court. It makes us all less safe. So, we are getting ICE out of our courthouses, schools and hospitals. This bill is a testament to the hard work and advocacy of so many people across our state. We’re going to keep working together to make Massachusetts and this country BHRC | SEE Page 18 ׉ Ú0s3://WAxEk6eMJCk6GUyFHF9EkIXoghL_fqv0Q5ci8fib3lwÍ-ßÍ`ÌÔÍ×j}åúÜqc*=3í׉EÚÒTHE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, AUGUST 14, 2026 Page 17 How Families Can Find Lost Money After a Loved One Dies Dear Savvy Senior, After my mom passed away, we discovered a few small accounts and an old insurance policy we didn’t know she still had. It made me wonder how often families uncover forgotten or unclaimed money like this after a parent dies. Is it common, and where should I start looking? --Searching Sarah Dear Sarah, It’s actually quite common. After a parent or spouse dies, families often come across small, forgotten accounts, uncashed checks, or old insurance policies that slipped through the cracks over the years. In many cases, paperwork was misplaced, accounts were opened decades ago, or loved ones simply weren’t aware the assets existed. According to the National Association of Unclaimed Property Administrators, billions of dollars in unclaimed assets are currently being held by state governments and federal agencies, waiting to be claimed by rightful owners or heirs. Unclaimed property usually comes from fi nancial accounts or benefi ts that became inactive because the owner moved, changed names or died. In many cases, heirs were never aware the money existed or did not know where to look. These assets can include savings or checking accounts, uncashed dividend checks, utility security deposits, life insurance proceeds, pension benefi ts, tax refunds, matured savings bonds and unpaid wages. By law, banks, employers, insurance companies and other institutions must turn these assets over to the state if they cannot locate the owner or next of kin after a set period, usually two to fi ve years. Once turned over, the money is held indefi - nitely, so there is no deadline for families to fi le a claim. Where to start A good place to begin is MissingMoney.com, a free site endorsed by the National Association of Unclaimed Property Administrators and the National Association of State Treasurers. It allows users to search for unclaimed property in 49 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico at once. Hawaii is not included but can be searched through a link on the site. When searching, check every state where your mother lived, worked or did business. Be sure to search under maiden names, married names and common misspellings. Using just a fi rst initial and last name can also uncover accounts that do not appear under a full name search. Each state’s site will indicate whether property is listed and explain how to fi le a claim. Other places to check State treasuries are only part of the picture. Families should also check several other common sources of forgotten money. Pensions and 401(k) s: To search for lost or forgotten retirement benefits your mom may have left behind with an old employer, use the U.S. Department of Labor’s Retirement Savings Lost & Found Database at lostandfound.dol. gov and the National Registry of Unclaimed Retirement Benefits at unclaimedretirementbenefi ts.com. Or to search for unclaimed retirement benefi ts from private-sector plans that have closed down, use the Pension Benefi t Guaranty Corporation search tool at pbgc.gov/ workers-retirees. Savings bonds: It’s very common for people to lose track of U.S. Saving Bonds because they are often given to children as gifts, then forgotten before the bonds reach maturity. To fi nd out if your mom had a Savings Bond or other Treasury security visit your state’s unclaimed property offi ce using unclaimed.org. Search the state of residence at the time of the securities purchase or last known address. Lost life insurance: To track down a lost or forgotten life insurance policy, the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, an insurance regulatory support organization, off ers a free policy locator service at eapps.naic.org/life-policy-locator. Other refunds: To search for money left at an FDIC insured bank or credit union that has gone out of business, visit closedbanks.fdic.gov/funds. Federal tax refunds can be checked at irs.gov/refunds or by calling 800-829-1954. FHA mortgage refunds can be checked at entp. hud.gov/dsrs/refunds. And unpaid wages are listed at dol.gov/ agencies/whd/wow. Send your questions or comments to questions@savvysenior.org, or to Savvy Senior, P.O. Box 5, Norman, OK 7070. 1.

Joe McKenna (RSutton) said, “I voted ‘No’ because I feel like this bill inappropriately ties the hands of the police offi cers and sheriff s who put themselves in danger every day to keep our communities safe.

They argued that the measure safeguards the wellbeing of children, especially those in state care and foster care; increases access to community support for children at risk of court involvement; and strengthens the Office of the Child Advocate to support robust investigations into reports of harm or abuse to a child. A key provision would expand the diversion of children dealing with behavior or attendance problems to Family Resource Centers (FRCs) instead of the court system. Supporters note that FRCs provide accessible, confi dential support to children and families in crisis close to home. They noted this has proven successful in helping kids and teens stay in school, and connecting families with services such as mental health or substance use treatment, housing aid and legal help. Other provisions include creating a Foster Child Bill of Rights to clarify and protect the basic rights and services foster children need to live healthy, safe and fulfilled lives; codifying a Youth Engagement program to ensure the voices of youth are included to inform relevant policy, oversight and programs; allowing a child the same ability as an adult to petition the court to - Legal Notice - COMMONWEALTH OF MASSACHUSETTS THE TRIAL COURT PROBATE AND FAMILY COURT î˜îµµî’îîŽ î€³î•î’î…î„î—îˆ î„î‘î‡ î€©î„îîŒîîœ î€¦î’î˜î•î—  îˆîš î‹î„î•î‡î’î‘ î€¶î—î•îˆîˆî— î’î–î—î’î‘î€ î€°î€¤  î’î†îŽîˆî— î’  DIVORCE SUMMONS BY PUBLICATION AND MAILING extend any abuse or harassment protection order made on behalf of the child; tasking the Offi ce of the Child Advocate with supporting families and caregivers by providing training materials to mandated reporters and individuals who frequently work with children; and creating and maintaining a list of resources for grieving parents who have experienced a sudden unexplained pediatric death. “Every child deserves the opportunity to grow up safe, supported and set up to succeed, and every family deserves somewhere to turn before a challenge becomes a crisis,†Healey said. “We’re building one of the strongest child and family support systems in the country by strengthening protections for children, expanding community-based support for families and making our child welfare system more transparent and accountable.†“This law refl ects our shared responsibility to the children of the commonwealth — especially those who have experienced abuse, entered foster care or are navigating crises,†said Sen. Jo Comerford (D-Northampton), vice chair of the Senate Ways and Means Committee. “It affi rms that every child deserves not only protection, but support, stability, dignity and the opportunity to build the future they deserve.†HOME CARE (H 5627) — Gov. Healey signed into law a bill that would establish a licensure process for home care agencies that supporters say will ensure that consumers receive quality nonmedical services and that home care workers are protected. The Executive Offi ce of Health and Human Services would implement the licensure process and have the authority to approve licenses, survey and investigate home care agencies and impose fines. Home care agencies would be required to disclose anyone with at least a 5 percent ownership interest in the agency, carry workers’ compensation and liability insurance and provide appropriate levels of training for their employees. “Massachusetts families deserve peace of mind when they hire someone to care for their loved ones at home,†said Gov. Healey. “This law strengthens the safety, quality and accountability of home care across Massachusetts, giving families confi dence in the care their loved ׉ Ú0s3://fOWXxzfxFf2CxWlotJ3URw4TnIBPt5k-BgidzLR8pnIÍ-zÍ`ÌÔÍ×j}åúÜqc*=3í׉EÚ(ÛTHE REVERE ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, AUGUST 14, 2026 Page 19 ones receive and supporting the dedicated workers who make independent living possible.†“We want people to have options as they age so that they can make the choices that work best for them,†said Lt. Gov. Kim Driscoll. “By establishing statewide safety and quality standards for home care agencies and strengthening protections for workers and consumers, we’re making it easier for more people to safely receive highquality care at home while giving families greater peace of mind.†PROHIBIT NUCLEAR WEAPONS — The Senate, on a voice vote without a roll call, adopted a bi-partisan resolution calling on the Bay State Congressional delegation to support the federal treaty on the prohibition of nuclear weapons. Twenty-one cities and towns in the Bay State have individually adopted similar resolutions. “The Massachusetts Senate passed this resolution just days before the 81st anniversaries of the U.S. bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki,†said cosponsor Sen. Jo Comerford (DNorthampton). “States can and should issue calls to action to federal lawmakers when the well-being of their residents is threatened. I am mindful that, in the 1980s, the commonwealth played a leading role in ending the nuclear arms race with the then Soviet Union by adopting a nuclear freeze resolution and encouraging other states to follow its example. Once again … Massachusetts has come forward to help propel a high-stakes national movement.†“The risk of nuclear conflict transcends politics,†said cosponsor Sen. Patrick O’Connor (R-Weymouth). “While there are diff erent views on the best path forward, we can all agree that reducing the risk of nuclear war and promoting global stability is a priority in the Legislature … These eff orts strengthen both our national security and our collective future. Massachusetts has a long tradition of being a leader on important national conversations, and I am so proud that the Senate has been involved in this one.†“It is extremely important that the Massachusetts Senate has added its voice to the national call for a fundamental change in U.S. nuclear policy.†said Dr. Ira Helfand, co-founder of Back from the Brink, whose website says it is “bringing communities together to prevent the growing threat that nuclear weapons pose to our health, environment and all we hold dear.†“If we don’t change course, we are sleepwalking towards a nuclear disaster. The United States must actively pursue the security of a world free of nuclear weapons, not as some distant goal, but as an urgent national security priority,†continued Halfand. “The current moment is particularly dangerous. In the last 15 months, fi ve of the nine nuclear armed states have been actively engaged in warfare with Russia, with the United States threatening their use. This is not a theoretical threat, but a real and present danger.†$5.9 MILLION TO HELP PEOPLE FIND JOBS — Gov. Maura Healey announced the awarding of $5.9 million in workforce development grant funding for 12 initiatives across Massachusetts, representing partnerships with employers, training providers and regional collaborators to train, upskill and provide job placement for 951 workers for indemand occupations in health care, logistics, education, information technology and more. “Across Massachusetts, employers are looking for skilled workers and residents are looking for opportunities to build successful careers,†said Healey. “These grants help us do both by connecting people with the training they need to fi ll in-demand jobs and helping businesses grow with the workforce they need.†“Workforce Success Grants offer an eff ective and proven tool for training providers to prepare skilled talent and for employers to access a skilled talent pool,†said Secretary of Labor and Workforce Development Lauren Jones. “By partnering with industry, training providers and regional organizations, we’re creating talent pipelines for occupations that are essential to Massachusetts’ economy. From health care to education to technology and beyond, these investments will help employers fi ll critical positions and enable more residents to build rewarding careers in regions across Massachusetts.†$8 MILLION FOR ENERGY EFFICIENCY AND CLEAN ENERGY PROJECTS — Gov. Healey announced $8 million in grants to 57 cities and towns across Massachusetts to fund energy effi - ciency and clean energy projects. Eligible projects include installing high-effi ciency lighting and building weatherization, upgrading to energy management systems, insulating pipes and attic spaces and transitioning HVAC systems away from fossil fuels by installing air- or groundsource heat pumps. “Communities across Massachusetts are fi nding innovative ways to reduce energy use and lower costs,†said Lt. Gov. Kim Driscoll. “These grants will help local leaders make practical upgrades that improve public buildings and deliver longterm energy savings.†“Energy effi ciency is one of the smartest investments a community can make,†said Energy and Environmental Aff airs Secretary Rebecca Tepper. “These grants will help cities and towns lower energy costs, upgrade municipal and school buildings and fl eets and reduce pollution, all while saving dollars that can be put toward other critical projects.†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 î’îîˆ î’î‰ î—î‹îˆ îˆîˆîŽ î†î‹îˆî‡î˜îîˆ î„ î“î•îŒî™î„î—îˆ î–î‹î’îšîŒî‘îŠ î—î’î‡î„îœ î‚± îŒîî“î•îˆî–î–îŒî™îˆî€„ îˆî•îˆî‡ î„î— î€‡î€™î€™î€œî€î€œî€“ îˆî•îŽî–î‹îŒî•îˆ î„î—î‹î„îšî„îœ î€«î’îîˆî€¶îˆî•î™îŒî†îˆî– î’îîî’î‘îšîˆî„îî—î‹ î€µîˆî„î î–î—î„î—îˆ î€©î’î•îîˆî•îîœ î€¦î„î•î“îˆî‘îŒî—î’ î€µîˆî„î î–î—î„î—îˆ î€¨î€¹î€¨î€µî€¨î€·î€·  î‘î…îˆî„î—î„î…îîˆ î€¹î„îî˜îˆ  î’î‡îˆî•î‘ î˜î›î˜î•îœ îŒî‘ î™îˆî•îˆî—î—  î•î’î’îî€ î€– î…îˆî‡î•î’î’îî–î€ î€• î…î„î—î‹ î€¦î’î‘î—îˆîî“î’î•î„î•îœ î–î—îœîîˆ î‹î’îîˆî€ îŠî•îˆî„î— î’î“îˆî‘ î’î’î• î“îî„î‘ î’î‡îˆî•î‘ î˜î›î˜î•îœî€ îˆî…î˜îŒîî— î‰î•î’î î—î‹îˆ î’î˜î‘î‡î„î—îŒî’î‘ î€¸î“ î€‹î€•î€“î€”î€œî€Œ î‘îî’îœ î„îî î—î‹îˆ îî’î‡îˆî•î‘ î†î’î‘î™îˆî‘îŒîˆî‘î†îˆî–î€ î–î—î•î˜î†î—î˜î•î„î îŒî‘î—îˆîŠî•îŒî—îœî€ î„î‘î‡ îˆî‘îˆî•îŠîœ îˆï‚ˆî†îŒîˆî‘î†îœ î’î‰ î…î•î„î‘î‡î€î‘îˆîš î†î’î‘î–î—î•î˜î†î—îŒî’î‘ î˜î•î‘îŽîˆîœ  î’îš î€°î„îŒî‘î—îˆî‘î„î‘î†îˆî€ îŽîŒî“ î—î‹îˆ î†î’î–î—îîœ î•îˆî“î„îŒî•î– î„î‘î‡ î’î‘îŠî’îŒî‘îŠ îî„îŒî‘î—îˆî‘î„î‘î†îˆ î—îœî“îŒî†î„î î’î‰ î’îî‡îˆî• î‘îˆîŒîŠî‹î…î’î•î‹î’î’î‡ î†î’îî“î–îî’î™îˆ î•îŒîŠî‹î— îŒî‘ î‰î’î• î“î•îŒî–î—îŒî‘îˆî€ î–î—î•îˆî–î–î€î‰î•îˆîˆ îîŒî™îŒî‘îŠî€ î˜î‘î…îˆî„î—î„î…îîˆ îî’î†î„î—îŒî’î‘ î€‰ î„î†î†îˆî–î–îŒî…îŒîîŒî—îœ î¡î€” îŒî‘î˜î—îˆî– î—î’ î€«î„î•î™î„î•î‡ î‘îŒî™îˆî•î–îŒî—îœî€ î–î—îˆî“î– î„îšî„îœ î‰î•î’î  î™îˆî•îˆî—î— î€«î’î–î“îŒî—î„îî€ îîŒî‘î˜î—îˆî– î—î’ î€¨î‘î†î’î•îˆ î’î–î—î’î‘ î€«î„î•î…î’î•î€ î–îˆî„îîîˆî–î– î†î’îîî˜î—îˆ îŒî‘î—î’ î‡î’îšî‘î—î’îšî‘ î’î–î—î’î‘  î€î€šî€–  îˆî‘î—î•î„î î— î„î˜îŠî˜î– î†î’îîî’î‘îî’î™îˆî–î†î’î   îîŒî„î—îˆî–î€ î€¯î€¯î€¦î€ î€¤î‘ îŒî‘î‡îˆî“îˆî‘î‡îˆî‘î—îîœ î’îšî‘îˆî‡ î„î‘î‡ î’î“îˆî•î„î—îˆî‡ î‰î•î„î‘î†î‹îŒî–îˆîˆ î’î‰ î€¥î€«î€« îîŒî„î—îˆî–î€ î€¯î€¯î€¦î€ î€¥îˆî•îŽî–î‹îŒî•îˆ î„î—î‹î„îšî„îœ î€«î’îîˆî€¶îˆî•î™îŒî†îˆî– î„î‘î‡ î—î‹îˆ îˆî•îŽî–î‹îŒî•îˆ î„î—î‹î„îšî„îœ î€«î’îîˆî€¶îˆî•î™îŒî†îˆî– î–îœîî…î’î î„î•îˆ î•îˆîŠîŒî–î—îˆî•îˆî‡ î–îˆî•î™îŒî†îˆ îî„î•îŽî– î’î‰ î€¦î’îî˜îî…îŒî„ î‘î–î˜î•î„î‘î†îˆ î’îî“î„î‘îœî€ î„ î€¥îˆî•îŽî–î‹îŒî•îˆ î„î—î‹î„îšî„îœ î„îîŒî„î—îˆî€‘ î”î˜î„î î’î˜î–îŒî‘îŠ î€²î“î“î’î•î—î˜î‘îŒî—îœî€‘ public view on the thousands of pieces of legislation that have been fi led.
