Today I launched our campaign for re-election—because Boston families deserve a Mayor who fights for them.

Here in Boston, we stand up. We fight. We win. And we show the world that when we work together, anything is possible.

Head to michelleforboston.com to join us.

If you think this can’t happen, remember that of the 125,000 Japanese Americans who were interned during WWII for years without charge or trial, two-thirds were U.S. citizens. Including me.

Boston showed up today to send a clear message: We will not sit by while Donald Trump and his billionaire friends dismantle the protections that our families count on.

Hands off Boston.

The City of Boston is leading 40+ mayors, cities, and counties in an amicus brief against the Trump Administration's drastic and illegal cuts to federal research funding—cuts that will lead to immediate job losses nationwide.

Today we celebrated the 235 families who bought their 1st home this year through @boston.gov’s programs—each a new anchor building generational wealth in their families & building community in our neighborhoods.
Boston helped hundreds of families accomplish the seemingly impossible this year: buying a home in the city - The Boston Globe

Not a coincidence to achieve record low gun violence in same years as record highs in:
☀️ Paid youth summer jobs participation
👶 Universal pre-K access
🏘️ Affordable housing & homeownership investment
👩‍🍳 Small business creation
🌳 Parks programming
👩‍🏫 BPS early college & career seats
Boston broke a record last year for fewest homicides. It’s on track to do it again.
As of Dec. 10, Boston has reported just 22 homicides – a little over half of the 40 it had just two years ago.
