And despite being nearly 26% of our City’s workforce, immigrants make up 35% of health care workers, 40% of construction workers, and 41% of hospitality workers. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
In Boston alone, 46% of accommodation and food workers are foreign-born, with close to 25% of our undocumented population working in this industry. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
Our immigrants deserve and need our support. They are on the frontlines of fighting the coronavirus. They are health aides, nurses, physicians and surgeons. They are essential to our food service industry. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
And I want to thank our public employees who have not stopped serving the people of Boston despite everything we are all dealing with as families. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
To our first responders, medical professionals, and all the essential workers who are doing important work, every single day: we can’t thank you enough. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
As a City, we are not slowing down in our response. We approach each day with a new sense of urgency—because every single day counts. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
We’re also helping many of Boston’s great organizations that provide critical services and support to residents. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
And we’ve added hundreds of beds for first responders and shelter staff who need to isolate from their families. — PolitiTweet.org

We’re increasing our medical and care capacity for individuals experiencing homelessness. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
We know this extended closure is hard on parents too. You’ve had to step into a new role of teaching your kids, and balancing other priorities like work. We’re here to support you. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
Every day, we’re distributing thousands of free meals at 65 locations across the City. We are also making home deliveries for students with severe special needs. These services are continuing right now, throughout April school vacation week, and for as long as it takes. https://t.co/hvXhK3lT2C — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
Supporting the needs of all our students remains our top priority. We’re continuing to operate meal pick-up sites and delivering Chromebooks and WiFi hotspots. https://t.co/jTmnKqY7J5 — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
We’ve been preparing for the likelihood of this happening. @BostonSchools has been making plans to expand at-home learning opportunities for students. We will be sharing more information about this next phase of remote learning after April vacation. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
I agree that this is the right decision to make. We cannot yet ensure the safety of our students, teachers, and staff if schools reopen. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
As you know, @MassGovernor announced yesterday that all school buildings will remain closed for the rest of the school year and remote learning will continue. He also announced that all childcare, except for emergency facilities, will remain closed until June 29. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
I want to talk about our schools, and how we are planning for the rest of the school year. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
I know face coverings are hard to get used to. But it’s our job—our duty—to wear one right now. And if you don’t know how to make one, we can show you how. It’s easy. We have many resources available online. Visit https://t.co/CpPCgFL58d to learn more. https://t.co/C4smFuaCXf — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
They are putting their own health and safety on the line to make sure you are getting where you need to go. We all owe it to them, to do the right thing. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
I especially want to remind everyone who rides buses or trains to wear face coverings. These are crowded spaces. You owe it to yourself and your fellow passengers to wear one. If you don’t, you’re putting our @MBTA drivers at risk too. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
We can’t say this enough: these precautions are about protecting our most vulnerable neighbors, like our seniors and residents with chronic illnesses. The more of us who wear a face covering, the more effective we will be in slowing the spread of the virus. https://t.co/a629vCyWb8 — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
Most people are listening and doing their part. But I’m concerned that some are still not taking this situation seriously enough. I’m hearing all the time from residents who feel the same way. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
So please continue to remember the basics: ✔️Stay at home as much as possible. ✔️Wash your hands with soap and warm water throughout the day. ✔️Give people 6 feet of distance. ✔️Avoid crowds or groups of any kind. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
So it’s important now, more than ever, that we continue to be vigilant about distancing and face covering and cleaning. That’s how we will continue to see progress. That’s how we get life back to normal, as soon as possible. https://t.co/zZgFl347kE — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
And because it works, we need to keep it up. We are not at our peak yet. And the surge will continue. If we get complacent, we could see numbers spike. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
The good news is that what we’re doing is making a difference. #Socialdistancing is working. The added care capacity is working. Hospitals are treating critical care patients with the resources they need. They are saving lives. https://t.co/41YkvSxXGO — PolitiTweet.org
