had
the
pleasure

over

last
couple
of
weeks
in

I
feel

proud

woman
to
another
woman

the
baton
and
to
have
marawu

our
great
city

We
still
have
lots
of
challenges
and
lots
of
work,

C
Today
is
my
15th
day
and
I
get
to
do
something
very
important,
which
is
to
help
usher
in
new
leadership
and
fill
a
vacancy
on
a
very
important
body,
one
that
will
always
be
front
and
center
in
our
work
here
and
very
special
to
me.
I
know
I've
seen
councillor
elect
murphy
on
the
trail.
I
have
seen
her
out
in
our
neighborhoods.
C
I
have
heard
and
watched
as
she
has
spoken
from
the
heart
every
single
time
about
the
issues
that
she's
been
fighting
for,
especially
with
regards
to
families
in
our
city,
who
are
touched
by
the
opiate
crisis
and
by
recovery
by
affordable
housing
challenges
by
our
education
system.
So
I'm
excited
to
be
here
with
with
aaron
and
mrs
walsh
and
to
do
this
huge
okay.
So
if
you
would
raise
your
right
hand,
please.
D
And
repeat
after
me,
okay,
I
state
your
name.
I
aaron
murphy
do
solemnly
swear.
Do
you
solemnly
swear
that
I
will
bear
true
faith
and
allegiance
that
I
will
bear
true
faith
and
allegiance
to
the
commonwealth
of
massachusetts
to
the
commonwealth
of
massachusetts
and
will
support
the
constitution
and
will
support
the
constitution
thereof
so
help
me
god
so
help
me,
god.
