Thank you Chair Cronin, @SpeakerDeLeo, @RepHaddad & @JayLivingstone for the passing of the #ROEAct and making the commitment to protecting reproductive rights here in MA. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
Despite last week’s election results, reproductive freedom across the country is still in danger due to the recent confirmation to the #SCOTUS. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
I look forward to continuing to work with the Council, our housing advocates, renters, and landlords, as well as our state and federal partners, on how we move forward through this crisis. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
Evictions create conditions for the virus to spread, as people become homeless or move in with family. This impacts communities of color and immigrant communities at much higher rates. It’s both an equity crisis and a public health crisis. https://t.co/01WxMAti62 — PolitiTweet.org

When the statewide moratorium on evictions expired in October, we knew we had to do more to prevent evictions and promote housing stability in Boston. https://t.co/furyeXwrWi — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
Today, I’m proud to sign the Housing Stability Notification Act, and I thank the members of the @BOSCityCouncil for their support and leadership on this issue. https://t.co/wHwihM3jcY — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
Today, I joined @MassGovernor, @BHA_Boston, @MassEOHED, and @Trinity_RE to virtually cut the ribbon on Phase 2 of this development. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
Orient Heights Overlook Terrace Apartments is a great Boston story. We brought lots of partners together, we got creative sourcing funding, and we harnessed the economic strength of our city to create powerful opportunities for working families. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
This is what our communities, speaking through the Task Force, have called for. And this is what we are implementing here in Boston. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
This structure creates a single point of public access to a new gold standard in police accountability and community oversight. It also provides more predictability and structure for our police officers. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
In addition to those Executive Orders, we have drafted an ordinance that I will file with the City Council next week. This ordinance would create the Office of Police Accountability and Transparency, or OPAT. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
✔️This afternoon I signed 2 Executive Orders. ✔️The first one creates a Civilian Review Board. ✔️ The second order takes what was our CO-OP board and turns it into a stronger Internal Affairs Oversight Panel. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
Today, we are taking more key steps to enact this community vision of change. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
✔️We created a job description for the Executive Director of the proposed Office of Police Accountability and Transparency. That way, we can have someone ready to lead this new system forward as soon as it is approved. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
✔️I directed our Chief of Equity and other City leaders to work with the @BostonPolice on updating their policies through an equity lens, as well as create a Diversity and Inclusion Unit in the Department. That conversation is moving forward. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
✔️We began by filing a Home Rule Petition to give Boston high school graduates a preference in police hiring. That will increase diversity and have more officers drawn from the communities they are serving. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
30 days ago, when we announced the final recommendations, I pledged to act on each of them, and to do so on the timeline they laid out. And that’s what we’ve done. https://t.co/g1qG1vV2IF — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
I take their recommendations very seriously, not only as the work of leaders and experts, but as the collective expression of residents across our Black and Brown communities as they call for lasting, systemic change. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
✔️Sustain the urgency of that moment; ✔️Achieve deep and meaningful change in Boston; ✔️ Create a national model for breaking down systemic racism collaboratively, with the community in a way that improves public safety for all. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
I’m joined by most of the members of our Police Reform Task Force. Our goal is to: — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
So we will work with our public health experts, our families, and our teachers, to make sure this plan is done safely and done right for our students. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
Health experts are clear that getting students with deep needs back into school must be a priority. Our special needs parents are clear as well. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
We are ready to support safe, in-person learning in schools that serve students with complex disabilities. @BostonSchools has taken extra steps to address health and safety concerns. And we are moving forward with this plan. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
@BostonSchools has been working hard on this. They have been in continual communication with our special needs families. We’ve been in continuous talks with our teachers, and I know that the vast majority of our teachers want to be in the classroom with their students. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
To be clear: these are children and young people who need the services they get in school to be fully healthy and safe. And that’s why we are focused on getting them safely back into their schools. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
We will continue to take a cautious approach, prioritizing the safety of our students, families, teachers, and staff in all our school communities. And, we will prioritize the wellbeing of our highest needs students. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
As of today, the @BostonSchools remain fully remote. Last Friday, the state released new guidance on schools, and BPS is reviewing that guidance. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
I’m going to be advocating from now until this vote takes place -- to protect the health, the equity, and the future of Boston’s communities. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
I know there’s a budget gap. Every level of government faces a budget gap. We have to dig deep, and protect our priorities. The responsibility is on the state to find revenue, not make cuts that could damage our recovery. That will only hurt revenue in the long run. — PolitiTweet.org
Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh
These cuts: ✔️Undermine our #COVID19 response ✔️ Hurt the essential and frontline workers who have the fewest transportation options ✔️ Reduce disability access ✔️ Delay our climate change goals ✔️ And they hamstring our ability to get people to jobs and recover our economy. — PolitiTweet.org
