ESSAY: "I remember the first time I watched the Boston Marathon," writes Mayor Michelle Wu for @cogwbur.bsky.social. "I'd moved to Boston for college and I'd never seen anything like it: an entire region turning out to cheer for people they had never met."

One year ago today, I testified before Congress in Washington, D.C. that Boston is proudly a home for everyone—and that the birthplace of American democracy will never turn our backs on our people.
The Mayor’s Office of Language and Communication Access equipped the Boston Police Department with the translated announcements in the City's most spoken languages.
Thank you to everyone working across Boston to keep our neighbors safe and informed during the storm.

How serious an emergency? Both governor and #Boston mayor are in fleeces today.

Sarah Roberts and her family challenged local school-segregation laws in 1847 in court, resulting in Massachusetts banning segregated public schools eight years later. (1/3)
Mayor Wu can be seen from behind in front of a podium. An audience stands before her. Large text reads "If we can invent America, then we can be the city that forges the path forward in this moment," along with her signature.

Ah, it's nice to know that when you see fiery light out your Orange Line window, it's from the sunset, not the train

"I want to be Governor of Massachusetts but I am afraid of a park" is not a great pitch.
Love where you live. 🏳️🌈🏡
Portland resists with whimsical improv theater, Chicago resists by screaming at weird jagoffs that don’t belong in the neighborhood. Every city brings its own strengths to the fight
"There's no shortage of reasons these days to be angry or afraid. But look around you right now and you'll see tens of thousands of reasons to keep the faith and keep going. This is the America we know to be possible."

Boston looks forward to welcoming the world to our beautiful city, the cradle of liberty and city of champions.

This morning, we proudly cut the ribbon on the new Sarah Roberts School in Roslindale!
In 1847, a brave five-year-old girl and her father became the first to challenge school segregation in court. Sarah Roberts and her father, Benjamin Roberts, sued the City of Boston. 🧵
Graphic with a professional photo of Clare Kelly and text: Mayor Wu appoints Clare Kelly Chief of Staff, Boston Mayor's Office.
I am delighted to welcome Clare Kelly as our new Chief of Staff!
Clare has been a key leader over the last 4 years, serving as Director of Intergovernmental Relations since Jan. 2022. Her decades of service in government and community will help steer our work to make Boston a home for everyone.
It’s time to vote and show the world: Boston is not for sale, and we’ll keep fighting for our families and our future.
Happy first day of school, Boston!
And a happy new school opening day to The Sarah Roberts.
Sarah and her father Benjamin filed the first school desegregation suit in US history in 1849.
She was represented by Robert Morris, the first Black attorney in MA, and future US Senator Charles Sumner.
This isn’t a game of authoritarian Monopoly.
Other countries aren’t for sale. Boston’s South Station isn’t a federal property.

Dolly Parton has sent my daughter a new book every month for years as she does for thousands of children. She help fund the development of the Covid vaccine. She’s not a billionaire. I think as non wealthy people it’s hard to even imagine how much billionaires *could* be doing with their money.
Mom math is that summer camp is actually free because I paid for it in full eight months ago.
Earlier this year Michelle Wu showed up before a Trumper House committee with an Ash Wednesday cross on her forehead and her newborn baby, then proceeded to rip their heart out and show it to them. I couldn't understand why Josh Kraft didn't announce the next day that he'd decided not to run.
Love this clip of Dorchester native @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com talking about the Mayoral election, @wutrain.bsky.social & Josh Kraft, especially the ending. www.msnbc.com/the-last-wor...
Trump connection in plane sight
A new Globe/Suffolk poll of the Boston mayoral race has Mayor Michelle Wu leading Josh Kraft 60 / 30. #bospoli www.bostonglobe.com/2025/07/21/m...
To clarify: Boston doesn’t need a mayor who only recently registered as a (Blue Dog) Democrat before launching his campaign, but voted Republican in the 2016 Presidential election cycle, & has supported MAGA anti-choice, anti-marriage equality, election denier federal candidates around the country…
