Our local #Boston restaurants are always there for us, supporting our youth sports programs, neighborhood causes and charities. Let’s continue to be there for them by ordering takeout or delivery this weekend. Plenty of great options in D2! #Southie #SouthEnd #Chinatown

#Boston has faced other difficulties in the past, but we’ve always risen to the challenge and proven our resilience by working together and looking out for one another. That’s how we’ll get through #COVID19. I need everyone to #stayhome and practice social distancing.

Canada just passed their stimulus... $8,000 per person - $2k per month for four months...

I went to the grocery store this afternoon. As I was walking in I heard a woman yell to me from her car. I walked over and found an elderly woman and her husband. She cracked her window open a bit more, and explained to me nearly in tears that they are afraid to go in the store.

Can’t believe this just happened. I had the opportunity to share my story on @cnn with @brikeilarcnn earlier today. What an absolute honor.

The 2020 @Bostonmarathon is postponed until September 14, 2020.

My top priority is to make sure all @CityofBoston residents and visitors are healthy and safe from the #coronavirus. Thank you, @MassGovernor, @BAA, @johnhancockusa for all your support.

[Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh]

The Marathon plays a major role for local charities and the local economy. Our hope is that fundraising will remain strong, and our plan is to make the weekend of 9/14 a cornerstone in a campaign to help local businesses recover.

[Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh]

I want to discourage anyone from running the course on April 20. The roads will not be closed and first-responders will be pulled away.

You have the chance to run in a historic, once-in-a-lifetime race in September and I hope everyone will embrace that.

[Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh]

We’ve shown before, that no matter the challenge, to our Marathon or to our city, we are #BostonStrong. And that’s what we will be again this year, in the face of this crisis and on Marathon Monday.

[Mayor Marty Walsh @marty_walsh]

There are 18 presumptive positive cases of coronavirus in Boston and 1 confirmed case. We will continue to update the public as we learn more. Visit https://t.co/CpPCgFL58d or https://t.co/D6ggwC4DtU for the latest information.

[Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @RepPressley]

#Coronavirus testing must be made free to the public if we are going to understand the scope of this crisis.

Anything less will undermine America’s effort to protect our communities and save lives.

The bill, introduced by Rep. @AyannaPressley and co-sponsored by Rep. @Ilhan, targets discriminatory discipline policies that push black and brown students out of schools at disproportionately high rates, often directly into the criminal justice system. https://t.co/NOJ0kYUxl6
