At a hearing of the Joint Committee on Ways and Means Friday, McGee, state Sen. Brendan Crighton (D-Lynn) and state Reps. Lori Ehrlich (D-Marblehead), Daniel Cahill (D-Lynn) and Peter Capano (D-Lynn) asked that some of the state's $4.8 billion in federal funding be directed to finding a solution to the ongoing pollution issues at the beach.
