Massachusetts House adopts resolutions honoring local leaders and organizations
The Massachusetts Legislature held an informal house session on June 23, 2025, where several resolutions were adopted, recognizing notable individuals and events within the community.

The session began with members pledging allegiance to the flag of the United States. The committee on rules presented a series of resolutions for adoption. Among these, Representative Hogan of Stow congratulated Deborah M. Russell for being named a 2025 Commonwealth Heroine by the Massachusetts Commission on the Status of Women. Additionally, Representative Ferrante of Gloucester and other members honored amateur radio operators during Amateur Radio Week.

Other resolutions included congratulations to Anne Covino Goldenberg on her 100th birthday, and recognition of Nancy G. Veil for her retirement from the East Bridgewater Council on Aging. Representative Tarski of Needham was acknowledged for her 35 years of service to the town, while the 300 Committee Land Trust Incorporated was celebrated for its 40th anniversary.

Following the adoption of these resolutions, the committee on rules recommended the suspension of Joint Rule 12 for two petitions: one regarding fraternal organizations conducting bazaars and another concerning a municipal tax amnesty program. Both petitions were approved after a vote.

The session concluded with an order stating that the house would adjourn to meet again on Thursday at 11:00 AM. The meeting was officially adjourned after a final vote.
