House adopts ceremonial resolutions honoring Eagle Scout, Autism Day, centenarian and Ramadan

The House adopted a set of ceremonial resolutions after the Committee on Rules recommended them, including honors for an Eagle Scout, recognition of a March 17, 2025 autism observance, a 100th birthday and Ramadan observance.

The committee on rules reported a slate of resolutions “ought to be adopted,” including a resolution filed by Representative Linsky of Natick congratulating Mark Boygeon on achieving the rank of Eagle Scout in the Boy Scouts of America; resolutions filed by Representatives Livingstone of Boston, Phillips of Sharon and Scanlon of North Attleboro honoring the National Autism Center at the May Institute and recognizing March 17, 2025, as the first annual “profound autism day” in Massachusetts; a resolution filed by Representative Sabadocer of North Hampton (text not specified in the record); and resolutions filed by Representative Worrall of Boston commemorating Ramadan and recognizing Sydney Zachary Moss on his 100th birthday.

Representative Badger of Plymouth moved to suspend the rules to consider the package. “All those in favor say aye,” the House responded; “All those opposed, nay.” The presiding officer announced, “The ayes have it. Rules are suspended.” The House then proceeded to consider and adopt the resolutions; when the question was put on adoption the presiding officer again called for the ayes and nays and declared, “The ayes have it. Resolutions are adopted.”

The actions recorded in the transcript are procedural and ceremonial: suspension of the rules to take up a group of resolutions and the adoption of those resolutions. No roll-call vote totals or recorded individual votes are included in the transcript.

The House adjourned its session to meet Monday next at 11 a.m., as noted later in the record.
