I couldn’t be more honored to organize alongside this team—in immigrant communities, in so many languages & with those who’ve never seen themselves represented in government. Thank you so much. 💜

Too often, politicians come along with empty promises and then leave our communities behind.
Not me.
As Mayor, I’ll make big plans to take on our city’s challenges AND take bold action to get it done. Join me. I ask for your vote.

Thank you to the staff & community members of @LaAlianzaHispan for having me to talk about my vision for a more equitable Boston!

Boston’s residents need more than advocacy from their Mayor—they need action. #AEG4BOS #bospoli
The Mayor of Boston should prioritize:
✅ High quality BPS schools
✅ Immediate action for Mass & Cass
✅ City solutions for affordable housing
❌ Waiting for Beacon Hill to implement rent control & free the state-run MBTA
Originally tweeted by Annissa Essaibi George (@AnnissaForBos) on October 25, 2021.
The power to Free the MBTA lies with the State House, not the Mayor’s Office. So let’s call it what it is: an empty promise.
When we have a bold vision, with no real plan to back it up, how many of our residents & families do we leave behind? #bospoli
Originally tweeted by Annissa Essaibi George (@AnnissaForBos) on October 25, 2021.
You can’t tackle the devastation at Mass & Cass from afar. The work must be done hand in hand with those down there every day.
It requires a presence, tough decisions, and action—not more stalling. #AEG4BOS #bospoli
