鏟雪費和警察加班費超支 波士頓市預算赤字近5000萬元

         Boston Orange編譯)波士頓市政府330日證實,受極端氣候與公共安全支出激增影響,本會計年度(至 6  30 日止)預計出現 4,840 萬美元預算赤字。市長吳弭(Michelle Wu)已緊急下令凍結部分開支並推遲招聘,以確保在下週公布新年度預算前達成收支平衡。

市府財務長Ashley Groffenberger在這天發給市議會的信函中指出,出現赤字主要是因為今年有兩場特大暴雪,導致鏟雪費用超支 4,710 萬美元,另有警察加班費超支 4,870 萬美元,合計超支近 1 億美元,然而由於本年度稅收表現比預期好,加上市府部門節流,相互抵銷後,最終赤字目前控制在 4,840 萬美元。獨自編列預算的波士頓公立學校(BPS)也面對5,300 萬美元預算赤字。

波士頓市政府為因應這預算赤字,已採取一系列措施。吳弭市長去年12月時,就已指示市府各部門首長,下個會計年度的開支預算刪減2%。波士頓市府和工會達成協議,縮減雇員減肥藥物(如 GLP-1健保給付,預計每年可節省約 1,100 萬美元。

吳弭市長也下令立即推遲或凍結市府員工聘僱,限制或凍結辦公用品、餐飲與差旅費等開支,縮減雇員減肥藥物(如 GLP-1健保給付。市府財務長Ashley Groffenberger強調,這些措施旨在保障垃圾清運與圖書館等核心服務,若必要時將動用儲備基金。

政策專家警告道,儘管目前的赤字僅佔總預算 1%,但在建築許可收入下滑與聯邦補助減少的情況下,市府過去依賴稅收紅利抵銷超支的模式已難以為繼。吳弭政府未來將面臨收入增長受限的挑戰,需更謹慎規劃預算以維持長期財政穩定。

Governor Healey Announces Summer Savings for Commuter Rail Riders 
 
BOSTON - Governor Maura Healey today announced a series of summer fare promotions and discounts on the MBTA Commuter Rail to lower costs for riders, support regular commuters and encourage more people to choose public transportation as Massachusetts prepares for a busy season of major events across the state.  
 
Governor Healey made the announcement at North Station alongside Lieutenant Governor Kim Driscoll and Interim Transportation Secretary and MBTA General Manager Phil Eng this morning, where they outlined four promotions that will run on the Commuter Rail through June, July and August, including Free Fridays, a 50 percent discount on monthly passes, and more. Monthly passholders will save between $321 and $639 over the summer, depending on their route.  
 
With major events and increased travel expected across the state this summer, the Administration is focused on making sure people have a reliable, affordable alternative to driving so we can reduce congestion, support daily commuters, and keep Massachusetts moving. These steps will help residents and visitors get around during a busy summer while making public transportation a more convenient choice for everyday travel. 
 
“We want to make using public transportation easier and more affordable for people – for our regular commuters, for residents going out to local businesses and restaurants, and for everyone who will be enjoying the exciting special events we have going on this summer,” said Governor Maura Healey. “That is why we are discounting commuter rail fares and offering free service on Fridays all summer long, saving people hundreds of dollars. The MBTA has made incredible strides to improve service, particularly on the commuter rail, and we want as many people as possible to choose public transportation for special events and as part of their daily routine.”  
“These fare promotions will help make it easier for people to get around Massachusetts this summer,” said Lieutenant Governor Kim Driscoll. “We want residents and visitors to be able to travel affordably and take advantage of everything our communities have to offer.”   
 
“As we prepare for events like the World Cup, MA250, Tall Ships, and for millions of visitors to experience all that Massachusetts has to offer, we want to thank our regular riders that rely on us 365 days a year for your patience and continuing to choose transit during this unprecedented summer. These free and discounted summer Commuter Rail services are a Thank You to our regular passengers and to encourage more people to experience the convenience of leaving their cars at home and choosing transit,” said Interim Secretary of Transportation and MBTA General Manager and CEO Phillip Eng. “We are committed to furthering MassDOT’s mission of providing safe, reliable, and resilient transportation in every corner of the state, and we hope passengers across the region take advantage of our Free Summer Fridays, summer discounts, and bringing a friend on the Commuter Rail on weekends for just $1 each way to explore the many wonderful recreational opportunities Massachusetts has to offer just a train trip away.” 
 
The following fare promotions will be available through June, July and August 2026:  
  • Free Summer Fridays: All Commuter Rail service will be free on Fridays in June, July, and August 2026, including Juneteenth and July 3. Regular fares will be in place for Boston Stadium Trains, the CapeFLYER, and any other special event trains to Foxboro. 
  • 50 Percent Discount on Monthly Commuter Rail Passes: Calendar month Commuter Rail passes for June, July, and August 2026 will be discounted by 50 percent. This discount applies to full fare and reduced fare monthly passes for Zones 1 through 10, Interzone 1 through 10, and Commuter Ferry passes. This discount will not apply to Zone 1A passes. All non-calendar month Commuter Rail products (for example, single-ride tickets, 5-Day Flex Passes, and Weekend Passes) will remain at their standard prices. 
  • Expanded Weekend Travel for Monthly Pass Holders: Monthly Commuter Rail passes will be valid for travel to any zone on weekends. Zone 1 through 10 pass holders may travel through Zone 10, and Interzone pass holders may travel through Interzone 10. This does not apply to Zone 1A passes or ferry service. Regular fares will be in place for Boston Stadium Trains, the CapeFLYER, and any other special event trains to Foxboro. 
  • $1 Weekend “Summer Companion” Fare for Commuter Rail Monthly Pass Holders: Monthly pass holders may bring one companion on any weekend Commuter Rail trip covered by their pass for $1 each day. This offer is limited to one companion per pass holder. Regular fares will remain in place for Boston Stadium trains, the CapeFLYER, and other special event trains to Foxboro.  
To support increased ridership during the FIFA World Cup, the MBTA will temporarily adjust Commuter Rail schedules in June and July, including expanded service to accommodate up to 20,000 passengers on 14 trains per match day to Boston Stadium. 
 
The MBTA recognizes these temporary schedule changes may affect regular riders. These fare discounts are intended to offset those impacts, support regular riders, and encourage more people to choose transit during a busy summer season and beyond.

 (Boston Orange編譯
美國海軍最新的核動力潛艦「麻號(USS Massachusetts)」328日由美國最古老的海軍船艦憲法號陪伴在側,在南波士頓康利碼頭(Conley Terminal以麻州州長奚莉(Maura Healey),聯邦眾議員Seth Moulton聯袂出席的盛大典禮,正式加入服役行列

麻州長Maura Healey在推特上貼文。
  美國第5以州命名,在維琴尼亞州建造的這艘軍艦,造價28億美元,將展開為期30年的保家衛國任務。

麻州州長奚莉說,“我們從來沒有比現在更驕傲過,1812年美國海軍的第一艘軍艦,從麻州這兒出發,250年後,最新的「麻州號」也在這兒,加入美國海軍行列。

 

本身為海軍退伍軍人的聯邦眾議員Seth Moulton説,250年前,麻州在美國革命上佔有舉足輕重的地位,

 

「麻州號」是一艘「維吉尼亞」級快速攻擊核潛艇,於2023年在維吉尼亞州紐波特紐斯(Newport News)舉行了命名儀式,20242月下水,並在參加週六的服役典禮之前,接受了一系列嚴格的海上試驗。 這艘全長377英尺的潛艇可搭載152名軍官和水兵,其動力源自一座核反應堆,該反應堆佔據了艇身長度的一半以上。 「麻號」配備魚雷和「戰斧」巡航飛彈,航速可超過25節,下潛深度可達800英尺以上。

 

自從那艘昆西市福爾河Fore造船廠建造曾在次世界大戰中戰功彪炳的戰艦於1947年退役以來,這還是第一艘名叫“麻州號(USS Massachusetts的軍艦。

 

第一艘「麻號(USS Massachusetts是一艘木製蒸汽船,1845年在東波士頓建造,曾美墨戰爭中服役

 

儀式結束之際,全體船員依序登上了「麻州號」戰艦。首班值更人員就位,艦首旗徐徐升起,海軍學院畢業生,該艦首任艦長Michael Siedsma宣佈正式接管指揮權。

            廖朝宏處長代表台灣政府恭喜寶島水煎包店開張。他說,人們想到台灣時,常常是先想到半導體,或著台灣的韌性與高科技創新,但是更簡單,更有力量的是台灣的美食。他敢保證寶島水煎包店做的水煎包是全新英格蘭做得最好的一家。他謝謝所有到場者對台灣美食,地方企業的支持。
