  • S. 2325 Lead Sponsor: Senator Sonia Chang-Díaz
    AN ACT MODERNIZING THE FOUNDATION BUDGET FOR THE 21ST CENTURY S. 2325 Lead Sponsor: Senator Sonia Chang-Díaz THE PROBLEM: Every day, students across Massachusetts walk into schools that are facing dire challenges. Over the last decade, school districts have been forced to make difficult cuts year after year. Classrooms across the state have lost critical services and programs, including social- emotional supports like counselors, wrap-around services, resources like technology and books, professional development, arts classes, and preschool programs. On top of these cuts, Massachusetts has one of the worst achievement gaps in the United States – ranking 48th nationally for the achievement gap between affluent and poor students. It wasn’t supposed to be this way. In 1993, Massachusetts passed the Education Reform Act— which established the “Foundation Budget” to make sure all school districts could provide their students with a quality education. Unfortunately, in the 25 years since, we have done little to update the formula, and it’s now outdated, hampering districts’ efforts to provide each student with the quality education they deserve. The 2015 Foundation Budget Review Commission (FBRC) found that health care and special education costs have far surpassed assumptions built into the original formula. The FBRC also found that the original formula drastically understated the resources necessary to close achievement gaps for low-income and English Language Learner students. In all, the bipartisan commission of experts found that Massachusetts is underestimating the cost of education by $1-2 billion every year THE SOLUTION: To make good on our bedrock promise of providing every student in Massachusetts with equal access to quality education, we need to significantly revise the foundation budget formula.

  • Prioritize People with Developmental And
    The Honorable Governor Baker Office of the Governor 24 Beacon St., Room 280 Boston, MA 02133 March 31, 2021 Dear Governor Baker, We write to you today as concerned legislators regarding the timeline for eligibility for vaccine for Massachusetts residents. We respectfully request that you include individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (I/DD) and their caregivers in Phase 2 of the Commonwealth’s COVID-19 vaccine distribution. We appreciate phasing vaccines to prioritize the most vulnerable populations being vaccinated as quickly as possible. This phased approach has been successful in Massachusetts, where at least 68% of the population older than 75 and about 90% of long-term care residents have received vaccines. The COVID-19 pandemic severely and devastatingly impacted people with I/DD. Over the last year, medical professionals have confirmed that the COVID-19 pandemic has disproportionately impacted people living with disabilities. Research shows that I/DD, Autism, Down syndrome, Neurological conditions, and Acquired Brain Injury all increase an individual’s risk of serious complications and death from COVID-19. In addition, many people with disabilities have experienced difficulty engaging in preventative health measures and disruptions to health services they normally rely on as a result of the pandemic. Recent studies on the impacts of COVID-19 on individuals with intellectual disabilities have found that having an intellectual disability is the greatest risk factor, other than age, associated with COVID-19 deaths. A general lack of COVID-19 data collection on people with intellectual and developmental disabilities means we have yet to accurately capture the true impact the pandemic has had on this population.

Prior to the legislation reaching the floor for debate, the Caucus hosted Massachusetts Bar C Association President Denise Attorney Denise Squillante, President of Squillante for an informational presentation on the Massachusetts Bar Association the proposed reform of the state’s alimony law. The legislation, which originated with Senator Cynthia Creem (D-Newton), was examined by a task force comprised of legislators, divorce attorneys, judges and the state's bar associations. The task force tackled the issue for more than a year, gathering input from all sides. Senator Gale Candaras (D-Wilbraham) and Representative John Fernandes (D-Milford) chaired the effort. Supporters of the bill, including Attorney Squillante, reported a cry for reform from both payors and payees of alimony. Alimony currently has no end date, which, Pictured at the June briefing are Attorney Squillante said, means some possible payees are discouraged from filing Representative Peter Durant (R-Spencer), Senator James Eldridge (D-Acton), and because judges are unlikely to award alimony without an end in sight, especially Representative Ellen Story (D-Amherst). after short-term marriages.
