We’ve fallen in love with the energy the Tartan Army has brought to Boston.

I was honored to sign this Letter of Intent with Glasgow—a commitment to strengthening the friendship between our two cities. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

At the Office of Black Male Advancement’s 4th annual Black Fathers Celebration, we reflected on the fathers in our community making an impact not only within their families, but also through community, education, public service, and leadership.

Thank you to all of the Black fathers and father figures who continue to lead, support, and strengthen our communities.

We’re coming together to prepare Boston’s innovation economy for the future—and at the City, we’re working to create that future by making Boston the place where the best and brightest want to live. That’s why this morning at WHOOP HQ, I convened with senior industry leaders who have been integral to Boston’s success and have helped define the next chapter of the City’s growth and innovation.

We want every resident and every visitor in town to see a future here—to see Boston as the best place to raise a family, live a good life, and work on problems that matter. And thanks to our partners like Whoop across the city, we’re making good progress.

JLL recently named Boston the #2 innovation hub in the world, and the Financial Times just ranked us the #1 U.S. city for foreign companies to do business.

We have six new unicorns across the Commonwealth, including three in Boston. And this spring, the Spanish government announced a $200 million investment into our life sciences and biotech sectors.

There’s a lot of momentum to be proud of—but this is a race to lead the industries of the future, and we know that momentum can only last so long.

We’re stepping on the gas to build the infrastructure we need to win: rolling out and “AI and Public Engagement” training for our city employees in collaboration with InnovateUS, making Boston Public Schools the first major school district in the country where all students will graduate understanding how to use AI effectively and responsibly, and building smart tech to improve city services across our departments.

We are grateful to work with every one of our partners to make Boston the talent and innovation capital of the world.

We were proud to celebrate our older LGBTQ+ community here in Boston earlier this week and are so grateful for the generations of q***r, trans, and nonbinary residents who have sacrificed so much to make our city a home for everyone—and who continue to teach us what courage, resilience, and love look like. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Thank you to Age Strong and Ethos for this wonderful collaboration, and to Venezia Restaurant Boston for hosting such a lovely and lively event with dancing, delicious food, and great music!

Happy Pride, Boston! 🏳️‍🌈

Thank you to our q***r, trans, and nonbinary communities for your love, courage, resistance, and your pivotal role in making Boston a home for everyone. We see you, we hear you, and we love you.

Boston is the City of Champions—and our young athletes prove exactly why! We had the honor of celebrating our youth athletic champions from across the city last night at our 2nd annual Celebration of Champions.

For Boston’s students and youth athletes, good is never good enough.

They come together with their teammates, follow their dreams no matter the challenges, and play the long game—because titles like these don’t come from a single match or meet. It takes resilience, determination, and practice over an entire season—early mornings and late nights, between school and homework, jobs and other commitments.

That dedication is why they’ve won titles across football, cheer, basketball, soccer, track and field, baseball, softball, volleyball, swim, cross country, flag football, ice hockey, street hockey and more.

These athletes are constantly setting records and raising the bar, and I could not be more proud of each and every one of them. They come from neighborhoods all across our city and represent communities from all across the world—and all of them show us what it means to be a champion.

Congratulations, everyone! And a special congratulations to our Spirit of Sport Award Winner, TechBoston Academy's very own Edgar Santana Castro.

This weekend we honored the 133rd Boston Fire Department Memorial Sunday.

What moves someone to become a firefighter is an extraordinary love for other people. This job requires loving your neighbors enough to put yourself at risk to protect their lives and their futures, to run toward danger to help other people get out, and to answer the call—no matter the hour, no matter the need.

It is their love, courage, and selflessness that make Boston the safest major city in the country and a home for everyone. We are so grateful to the generations of firefighters who have built that legacy.

The City of Boston will do everything in our power to carry it forward by caring for their loved ones and all our Boston firefighters who continue their mission, day in and day out. And we are forever grateful to each of them for their service and sacrifices to protect the city we all love.

To all of our Boston firefighters, active duty and retired: thank you for your service, and for the honor of joining you in remembrance and gratitude for our heroes.

I was so glad to join the residents of Boston Housing Authority’s Faneuil Gardens over the weekend for their annual Unity Day!

Since the 1980s, the Boston Housing Authority has hosted their Unity Day annual celebration for BHA residents, bringing communities together to celebrate with fellow neighbors while enjoying fun activities and great food together.

Thanks to everyone who came out to be together, and those who had a hand in making the day so special.
