Massachusetts Senate honors Somerset Berkley state champions and discusses LGBTQA advisory councils
The Massachusetts State Senate convened on March 31, 2025, at 11:00 AM, beginning with the Pledge of Allegiance. The session featured a warm welcome from Senator Rodricks, who recognized the state champions from Somerset Berkeley in girls field hockey and boys basketball, commending their achievements and the support from coaches and families.

Following the recognition, the Senate entered a brief recess before addressing reports from the Committee on Rules. Senator O'Connor moved to suspend Senate Rule 36, allowing for the immediate consideration of several matters. The motion passed with unanimous support.

The Senate then considered a petition from the House, introduced by Representatives Gentile, Miranda, and Montano, proposing the establishment of LGBTQA parent advisory councils in public schools. The motion to suspend Joint Rule 12 for this petition also passed, and it was referred to the Committee on Education.

Senator O'Connor proposed an order for the Senate to reconvene on Thursday at 11:00 AM, which was adopted without objection. The session concluded with a motion to adjourn, which was also approved, marking the end of the meeting until the next scheduled session.
