The district
7th Plymouth on its 2021 lines: 3 cities and towns, 43,144 residents (2020).
Abington · Whitman · East Bridgewater
Percentages are each place’s share of the district’s 2020 residents; for a town split between districts, the share of the town inside this one follows.
Population-weighted Fairness Index of the district’s cities and towns: 49 for all state aid and 36 for discretionary money (50 is a fair share).
Local earmarks are counted three ways. District money uses the first, clauses that name a place in the district; the second table adds organizations located in the district (placed in the district) and state facilities located there (everything placed). Three ways to count a local earmark.
| Session | District | Dollars | In corrective clauses | Per resident per budget, rank | Without corrective clauses, rank |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 191st (2019–20) | 7th Plymouth | $409,000 | $0 | $4.77 · 53rd of 160 | $4.77 · 51st of 160 |
| 192nd (2021–22) | 7th Plymouth | $590,000 | $0 | $6.88 · 75th of 160 | $6.88 · 74th of 160 |
| 193rd (2023–24) | 7th Plymouth | $323,000 | $0 | $3.75 · 146th of 160 | $3.75 · 146th of 160 |
| 194th (2025–26) | 7th Plymouth | $99,000 | $0 | $2.30 · 148th of 160 | $2.30 · 147th of 160 |
District money is where enacted earmarks land, by the place a clause names, mapped to districts by 2020 population; it is not attributed to the member and does not include leadership’s base-text money that names no place. Ranks are of district money per resident among the chamber’s districts, 1 = most. “In corrective clauses” is the part carried by a Ways and Means chair’s corrective amendments, which is leadership’s money; the last column gives the per-resident figure and rank without it. Sessions are labeled by the General Court that enacted each budget. Per-resident figures use the district as drawn for each session (2011 lines through the 192nd General Court, 2021 lines from the 193rd), so they will not equal a session’s dollars divided by the resident count above.
| Session | District | Placed in the district | Per resident per budget, rank | Everything placed | Per resident per budget, rank |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 191st (2019–20) | 7th Plymouth | $409,000 | $4.77 · 81st of 160 | $409,000 | $4.77 · 84th of 160 |
| 192nd (2021–22) | 7th Plymouth | $590,000 | $6.88 · 93rd of 160 | $590,000 | $6.88 · 95th of 160 |
| 193rd (2023–24) | 7th Plymouth | $323,000 | $3.75 · 150th of 160 | $323,000 | $3.75 · 152nd of 160 |
| 194th (2025–26) | 7th Plymouth | $99,000 | $2.30 · 155th of 160 | $99,000 | $2.30 · 157th of 160 |
Budget amendments
Alyson M. Sullivan-Almeida sponsored 89 budget amendments in FY2017–FY2026, asking for $109 million in all.
Amendments sponsored
89
FY2017–FY2026 budgets
Adopted, known outcomes
28%
21 of 75
Chamber rate, same ask sizes
62%
expected at the chamber’s rates
Of the 75 with a known outcome, 21 were adopted (28%). At the chamber’s adoption rate for amendments of the same size, about 47 (62%) would have been.
| Year | Amount | Enacted budget text (excerpt) | Amendment |
|---|---|---|---|
| FY2024 | $25,000 | “an accessible van for the council on aging in the town of Abington” | H3900 #814 |
| FY2024 | $25,000 | “improvements to the Whitman fire department” | H3900 #821 |
| FY2023 | $25,000 | “the purchase and installation of a full-size generator in the Abington senior center for use in weather-related emergencies as a temporary shelter…” | H4700 #556 |
| FY2022 | $25,000 | “hire a consultant to work with the Affordable Housing Trust to facilitate the creation of affordable and senior housing in the town of Abington” | H4000 #526 |
| FY2026 | $15,000 (shared two ways) | “improvements for the council on aging in the town of Whitman” | H4000 #183 |
Strong matches: 6 enacted items, $130,000 (the member’s share where several amendments claim one clause). House attribution is inferred throughout, because the House adopts most amendments inside consolidated amendments.
73 outcomes are inferred by matching amendment text to the House’s consolidated amendments, because the House records most amendments only as “Consolidated A–G.” Ask size is the larger of the earmark dollars and the line-item change an amendment requests; bands: no dollar amount, under $50,000, $50,000–$250,000, $250,000–$1 million, $1–5 million, $5 million or more. Leadership’s unattributed base-text and corrective-amendment money is never assigned to a member. The comparison describes outcomes; it is not a measure of merit.
Bills sponsored
Alyson M. Sullivan-Almeida filed 89 bills as lead sponsor in these sessions; three were enacted on their own. In completed sessions, 5% of their lead bills were enacted on their own, against chamber medians of 3% to 4% for the same sessions.
Most bills die in every legislature, and many policies pass inside other bills; the chamber median for the same session is the fair comparison.
| Session | Chamber | Lead bills | Enacted | Folded into an enacted bill | Sent to study | Reported favorably, then died | No action | Pending (session open) | Enacted rate | Chamber median | Cosponsored |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 191st (2019–20) | House | 11 | 1 | 0 | 6 | 4 | 0 | 0 | 9% | 4% | 107 |
| 192nd (2021–22) | House | 29 | 2 | 1 | 22 | 3 | 1 | 0 | 7% | 3% | 83 |
| 193rd (2023–24) | House | 25 | 0 | 0 | 22 | 3 | 0 | 0 | 0% | 4% | 67 |
| 194th (2025–26) | House | 24 | 0 | 0 | 17 | 0 | 0 | 7 | 0%* | 1% | 76 |
Enacted bills as lead sponsor
- H5046 (191st): An Act authorizing the termination of the motor vehicle fine revolving fund in the town of Whitman · Chapter 367 of the Acts of 2020
- H4971 (192nd): An Act establishing the North Bedford Street sewer district in the town of East Bridgewater · Chapter 399 of the Acts of 2022
- H4972 (192nd): An Act relative to the procedure for municipal acceptance of subdivision roads in the town of East Bridgewater · Chapter 361 of the Acts of 2022
Outcomes are the furthest point each bill reached in the record. “Folded into an enacted bill” means the history names the enacted bill that absorbed it. “Passed both branches; no chapter recorded” means the bill was enacted by both branches and laid before the Governor, with no chapter or veto in the history; in the 194th General Court such bills are shown as laid before the Governor (pending). The 194th General Court is in session until January 2027, so its open bills are pending, not dead, and its rates (*) are not comparable with completed sessions. Chairs and leaders control the calendar, which raises their rates. Source: malegislature.gov bill histories.
