State of the City

At a time when executive orders, political appointments and changes to government offices are hitting the news cycle at a rapid pace, the citizens of Boston are likely to have some questions.

Once a year, the elected chief executive of Boston delivers a speech about the state of the city and how as mayor she or he plans to move it forward. This year, Mayor Michelle Wu gave the annual speech at a time Boston has been the target of hostility from the Trump administration for the city’s support of immigrants who live here and for their communities.

In her second State of the City address, Mayor Michelle Wu touted her administration’s efforts to build wealth, especially in communities of color.
