A little personal news!

I’m excited to say I’ll be taking over the race and culture beat at KCUR. I’ve had a great time covering Kansas City politics & government, and I hope I lived up to that challenge.

If you ever read my local gov stories, thank you!

Ruthzee has always been hyper-competent, hyper-hardworking, and hyper-principled. Proud (and lowkey amazed) that people like her exist in elected office.

Three years ago today I met @UrFrenEm in person for the very first time in Mattapan and it’s been a dream ever since - a fast, wild, blurry dream but a dream nonetheless 😂❤️

The Boston Barracudas finished their season! Thanks to the help of the South End Fitness Center, we made sure that these swimmers had a pool for practice. Elated to have these shining faces on my desk - public service is truly the most rewarding ya’ll ! 🏊‍♀️🏊🏊‍♂️

NEWS: The Kansas City Council voted 10-3 today to ban the practice of source of income discrimination, making it illegal for landlords to reject tenants who have a housing voucher. It means landlords can't reject applicants ONLY because of how they would pay rent.

Update on my chief of staff @UrFrenEm’s pet (🐀) project: working in partnership with the city & residents to ensure folks are living with dignity.

.@Ruthzee reflects the vibrancy, determination, and brilliance of the Haitian community in Boston and across the MA-07.

Marking Haitian Indepence Day with her historic ascension to Boston City Council President is a fitting celebration.

A Team @Ruthzee pet (🐀) project: rodents & trash! This week involved supporting pilot programs in JP and Roxbury to abate pests and keep the streets clean. Big big shoutout to @BostonPWD & @ISDBoston
