[/FONT] I have heard  from so many people how upset they are about the legislative pay  raises.  You will be pleased to know that I was one of a handful of  legislators to debate against it and stand up for the taxpayers. During the  House rules debate, I pushed for more transparency and reforms such as  requiring committee votes be put online.  The public has the right to  know how members vote in committee. Also, I once  again tried to get the audit of legislative accounts to be published  online. Unfortunately, the Democrats voted it down. As a mother,  one of the most important issues for me is public safety.  I have been  working for years to get more public access to the sex offender  registry.  Recently it was exposed that there is a giant loophole of  deals being made in the courts to let sex offenders plead to only one  count when they have been charged or convicted of multiple offenses,  which keeps them off the registry.  That's wrong. Here is a link to the recent story: <a href="http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001_txTsamkrAq5oYRSCPC983q_tE8dTiABXe1KKKYtrASOB7uRCxj2BVHTCR91mKRCibl--LkjeXdzpE6bEb6abPw-R_2TRTYi_38SkkBqvvJ9Utom_UCQhRcax22OC1fO40zm6W_ghuNxRJ5pMAnymtVzzks8IUuFLsM3S2ewqi_5a3nWrpTGUxTm1UxvKVUfiJXhUz7-dScBDyriXa90iOQSygrBiOGekPRw4OiFDUK_Hv1jxOXY9k9yowxB3PJPTpdbDJG_Q1UmoiV3vIPF7A==&c=3m_a51uKb3tZs4q0_TzoF1KF3WtlyMFkoI_gGfaapv7tRJrBM7PPqw==&ch=27MFclMHgWf0mxGFQWcXkUL5NsfKZmUAatQ6uteMgja75Vy-e8-y0A==" target="_blank">http://www.wcvb.com/article/criminals-cutting-deals-to-avoid-registering-as-sex-offenders/8966851</a>  I am now trying to get answers from the Trial Court. The fight to keep welfare for the truly needy continues.  Here is a link to the latest scam:   <a href="http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001_txTsamkrAq5oYRSCPC983q_tE8dTiABXe1KKKYtrASOB7uRCxj2BVHTCR91mKRCIBZ3q3hCUjRIPTW_CdzESo12ZFGGj2H2oB4RlTtBn3SYSLak8qySme2P1UDC-1WOSQps5_vMbMy5Rt5y7jRTmJEWqMMoBFy16-3frQTYAjhM33AODiOUiTv5WovLSFKgGFirJaV2mDliYsxVRsTSdr216tc7DzsACZh5e7AhQU1Bg14Ap_upXFwwYbe5EFgh&c=3m_a51uKb3tZs4q0_TzoF1KF3WtlyMFkoI_gGfaapv7tRJrBM7PPqw==&ch=27MFclMHgWf0mxGFQWcXkUL5NsfKZmUAatQ6uteMgja75Vy-e8-y0A==" target="_blank">http://www.wcvb.com/article/lawmaker-calls-for-rmv-crackdown-to-stop-id-fraud/8234561</a> I am outraged  that we have convicted drug dealers collecting welfare benefits.  They  are getting IDs from the Registry.  That's why I have been pushing for  more authentication requirements to get welfare and state IDs. Last year I  was one of only three legislators who voted against the state budget  because there was a giant loophole that would have allowed illegal  immigrants to get licenses.  Due to our stand, Governor Baker amended  the language. I want to thank you for being in my corner.  Your support helps me fight the good fight at the State House.  Thank you!
