Proud to stand with Harvard custodians & security workers from @32bjseiu.bsky.social in their fight for a fair contract.
Cambridge residents rallied alongside the Harvard community when it was attacked by Trump.
If Harvard wants Cambridge to have its back, it needs to have the back of its workers

In 2018, I lost part of two teeth in a bike crash in Cambridge.
Two years after my crash—in my 1st term on the City Council—I introduced the 2020 Cycling Safety Ordinance.
It’s added miles of protected bike lanes—including on Hampshire St, Mass Ave, and Brattle St.

Beautiful morning to join the Peabody School Bike Bus for their Halloween ride to school with the School of Honk band!
I came as a City Councillor 4 days before an election who didn’t have time to plan a real costume.
Lots of volunteers there from @cambbikesafety.bsky.social

The current US House Republican budget proposal cuts $1 billion in housing funds.
On the City Council, we’ve secured $1 million in City funds for housing vouchers, but the federal government needs to stop these cuts.
Proud to stand with @localprogress.bsky.social to demand Congress step up

I biked home in the dark from North Cambridge recently—which I wouldn’t have felt safe doing before the protected bike lanes.
One thing I love about biking in a city is you can stop & check things out in a way you can’t in a car.
Like the telescopes on Cambridge Common for Observe the Moon night!

One of the side effects of working at City Hall is that I get to see a lot of marriage ceremonies in progress.
But today was the first City Hall marriage I’ve seen that included a flash bomb group dance!

We knocked almost 1,000 doors.
And we had great conversations about creating safer streets, expanding after school programs, strengthening tenant protections, ending exclusionary zoning, and building social housing
