Summary:
The Joint Committee on the Judiciary held a late-file hearing on several bills. Early testimony focused on H.4876, a bill to strengthen supports for survivors of abuse, including limits on abusers’ legal standing after death, survivor notification when an abuser dies, expanded coercive control definitions, stronger privacy protections, and survivor education and resource programs. A representative testified on behalf of a constituent who could not appear publicly, describing how a lifetime restraining order and a family death exposed gaps in current law and arguing that an abuser should not be treated as next of kin for legal purposes.
The committee also heard H.5111, which would strengthen the Massachusetts Antitrust Act. Representative sponsors and the Attorney General’s antitrust chief said the bill would let the state enforce antitrust law even when federal authorities are involved, expand jurisdiction over multistate conduct affecting Massachusetts, increase penalties, clarify that invitations to conspire are violations, codify labor-market protections, remove limits affecting some housing transactions, and extend the statute of limitations. Senators and the AG’s office said the bill is needed because federal enforcement is weakening. The committee also took testimony on S.2976, a related constitutional-rights bill creating a state cause of action for violations by federal officers; supporters said it would fill a gap in remedies and preserve qualified immunity defenses.
Other bills drew support from advocacy groups and individuals. H.4783, which would reaffirm the rights of people experiencing homelessness, was backed by the Massachusetts Coalition for the Homeless as a response to encampment bans and criminalization of basic survival activities. H.4826, dealing with condominium owners’ rights, drew testimony that Chapter 183A is outdated and leaves owners with too little access to information and too few nonjudicial remedies, with examples of unresolved water and repair problems in condo communities. H.5244, to repeal archaic laws criminalizing pregnancy, was supported by reproductive justice advocates who said the remaining statute is being used to punish pregnancy loss and should be repealed.
A large portion of the hearing was devoted to H.5116, naming the Dorchester Division of the Boston Municipal Court the Judge Leslie E. Harris Courthouse. Rep. Chris Worrell, Senators Collins and Miranda, District Attorney Kevin Hayden, community leaders, legal professionals, and members of Judge Harris’s family described him as a compassionate, community-rooted jurist and mentor who advanced second chances, diversity, and youth support. No votes were taken during the hearing; the chairs repeatedly invited written testimony and noted the committee’s reporting deadline for House bills.

Summary:
The committee meeting focused on critical issues facing Texas state employees and retirees, highlighting the need for increased compensation and improved benefits. Senator Sarah Eckhardt and Representative John Busey presented new legislation aimed at addressing these longstanding problems, including proposed House Bills 343 and 247, which seek a $10,000 across-the-board pay increase for state employees. Senator Eckhardt emphasized the growing wage gap between public sector jobs and private sector offerings, which has led to high turnover rates and the loss of institutional knowledge. Public testimonies underscored the urgency of the issue as retirees shared their struggles with stagnant pensions amidst rising living costs.

Summary:
The Appropriations Committee on Pre-K-12 Education met with a quorum present and first temporarily postponed SB 920 on mathematics education. The committee then took up SB 1216 on public school personnel compensation, sponsored by Senator Rodriguez, which would give districts more flexibility in educator pay by restoring meaningful cost-of-living adjustments for teachers with direct student contact, allowing recognition of relevant advanced degrees, and removing rigid performance-pay caps. Several senators spoke in support, emphasizing teacher retention, compensation, and education as a state investment. The bill was reported favorably on a unanimous roll call vote.
After a brief recess, the committee considered CS/SB 1036 on school counselors, sponsored by Senator Calatayud, to address counselor shortages by removing certification barriers tied to classroom teacher requirements. The sponsor and supporting testimony described recruitment and retention problems, high counselor-to-student ratios, and the need for counselors to focus on student academics, mental health, and college/career readiness rather than administrative duties. Public testimony came from students, educators, and school personnel who described limited access to counselors and the impact on student well-being and college planning.
Committee members broadly supported the bill while noting that counselors are often overburdened and that additional support personnel, including BRACE advisors, may also need attention in the future. Senators also discussed broader efficiency measures and the need for schools and colleges to improve access to guidance services. CS/SB 1036 was reported favorably by unanimous vote. At the end of the meeting, members recorded their votes on the two bills, and the committee adjourned.

Summary:
The Joint Committee on Aging and Independence heard testimony on two sets of bills: Senate 3057/House 5376, concerning assisted living residences, and Senate 3056/House 5243, concerning medication administration in rest homes. On the assisted living bills, MassALA supported the proposal but urged amendments to clarify and limit fines and to specifically authorize certified medication aides for limited medication administration in assisted living. AARP and the state long-term care ombudsman supported the bills and the new trust fund, with AARP backing the use of certification fees and fines to fund oversight, and the ombudsman emphasizing the need for more staffing and resources to address complaints, evictions, billing issues, and resident advocacy. MassNAELA also supported the bills but asked for additional provisions on executive director licensure, building code and emergency preparedness standards, and broader task force membership; committee members said they would review draft language and noted that building code changes would require further study.
The rest home bills drew testimony from providers and industry groups who opposed the Department of Public Health’s proposed shift away from the long-standing “responsible person” medication model toward a MAP-based framework. Witnesses from rest homes, MARCH, and LeadingAge Massachusetts said the responsible person system has been used for decades, is safe and affordable, and is tailored to rest homes’ resident population and staffing realities. They warned that requiring certified medication aides or nurses would sharply increase costs, worsen workforce shortages, and could force closures or resident displacement. Several witnesses said they were open to strengthening training and oversight, but wanted a task force or collaborative process rather than immediate regulatory replacement of the current model.
Committee members asked questions about the history of the responsible person model, how medication administration works day to day, whether other states use similar systems, and whether data exist comparing medication error rates. The chairs indicated interest in moving the rest home bill sooner rather than waiting for additional fire marshal or building-code work on the assisted living side, and asked witnesses to submit proposed language and any supporting data in writing. The hearing concluded with thanks to the chairs and a motion to adjourn, which was approved.
