No senior in Boston should ever struggle to stay warm in their own home. We want to encourage seniors to take advantage of this program before the cold weather hits. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh

We’re also expanding our Seniors Save program, which replaces old heating systems in the homes of income-eligible seniors. We used to provide grants up to $3,500. Now, we’ve more than doubled that amount to $8,000. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh

The Double Up Food Bucks program is a win-win for small businesses and families. More savings means more families will have additional savings to spend on other critical needs. And small stores will have increased demand for fresh, locally-grown produce. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh

We’re currently inviting more stores to get involved. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh

I want to remind families that you can use your SNAP food benefits at stores participating in our Double Up Food Bucks Program. You get 50% off fresh fruits and vegetables and then we reimburse the local stores that participate. — PolitiTweet.org

Through the #BostonResiliencyFund, we’ve granted $15 million to organizations devoted to helping residents with access to food and other basic needs. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh

Our citywide network of over 60 meal sites is operating through the end of the year. BPS has 21 sites where families can get five days of meals, both breakfast and lunch, in one pickup. You can find those sites at https://t.co/oQiZ4qnmb3. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh

Food access continues to be one of our top priorities. It’s an equity issue we’ve been focused on since long before COVID. So far, we’re distributed over 3.5 million meals at sites across the City. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh

We recently announced that we are extending our Outdoor Dining Program. And we have waived application fees for the use of outdoor propane heaters in dining areas, for the colder months. Go to https://t.co/pDIOMPqx4K to learn more about the services we offer. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh

Since the #COVID19 crisis began, we’ve provided millions of dollars in relief for small businesses, including many restaurants. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh

We have higher density, and we’re continuing to watch the data on a day-to-day basis. We continue to put safety first. We will only loosen restrictions when it’s safe to do so. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh

We’re keeping the total number of people at any one table at six for the time being. Boston is different from many other cities and towns in Massachusetts. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh

We’ve worked hard to help our local businesses and restaurants during these difficult times. We’ve lifted restrictions when safe, and given restaurants support and resources so they can safely serve customers. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh

At the same time, we’ll continue to urge every Bostonian to fill out the Census as soon as possible. We need everyone to respond. Go to https://t.co/r3P5NYMV0q or call 844-330-2020. Either option is available in 13 languages. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh

As we know, the Census was cut short a month, and was set to end on September 30 — just five days from now. The decision to extend the Census is a crucial victory. Having this additional time can only help ensure the most accurate and complete count possible. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh

I also want to address the latest news about the U.S. Census. A federal judge in California ruled that the 2020 Census must be extended through October 31, as was planned in response to the #COVID19 crisis. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh

Justice Ginsburg spent her life fighting to make our country a more fair, just, and equitable place. We will forever be grateful. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh

Today, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg will be laid to rest. And today, she will make history one final time. She will become the first woman, and first Jewish American, in history to lie in state at the U.S. Capitol. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh

With the opioid crisis taking too many lives and shattering families across the nation, our recovery services work has never been more important. During #RecoveryMonth, we must reflect our best values: our belief that every single person is worthy of compassion, dignity and hope. https://t.co/MWQg6wvcMm — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh

Our #COVID19 mobile testing team is now in #GroveHall. Testing is available to anyone at no cost and regardless of symptoms. Please get tested if you think you’ve been in contact with someone with #COVID19. https://t.co/vPlqmDfFyt — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh

It shouldn’t need to be said in 2020: women’s rights are human rights. I urge Massachusetts to pass the #ROEAct. In Boston, we’ll continue to protect a woman’s right to make decisions about her own body. https://t.co/7rI6uuHSpz — PolitiTweet.org
