BOSTON — The $39.497 billion budget released by the Massachusetts Senate Ways and Means Committee on Tuesday emphasizes funding related to children and education. There is money to fight drug addiction and elder abuse. There is less of a focus on business and economic development, where the Senate committee cuts several line items.

So who are some of the winners and losers in the Senate Ways and Means budget?
