Martin J. Walsh, sworn in today as Boston’s mayor, is vowing a new era of progress and collaboration at City Hall.
In remarks prepared for his inauguration ceremony, Walsh described Boston as a city of big dreams, second chances, and redemption. He traced the city’s history, noting its people have fought tyranny, stood up to slavery, opened doors to immigrants, and led the nation in recognizing same-sex marriage.
He noted that a broad coalition propelled him into the mayor’s office and he vowed to represent the city as a whole.
“Today, we are sworn in together,” Walsh said in the remarks. “Together, we are committing to do all we can for the city we love. Together, we can move our great city forward.”
