You'll
hear
from
many
of
the
leaders
who
have
been
involved
with
this
for
years
and
years
long
before
I
had
the
privilege
of
stepping
into
this
role,
and
so
I
really
want
to
emphasize
how
much
of
an
effort
this
has
been
generationally
for
the
city
of
boston.
To
get
to
this
point
before
we
dive
into
remarks,
I
want
to
acknowledge
some
of
our
guests.
A
Everyone
there's
so
many
people,
I'm
even
seeing
out
here
that
need
to
be
acknowledged,
but
I'll
read
through
a
list
of
just
some
folks.

Okay,
so
good
morning,
everyone
right
before
today's
event.
I
had
the
honor
and
deeply
moving
privilege
of
meeting
with
the
trans
emergency
fund
and
members
and
staff
and
community
about
the
work
that
they
do
every
day.
The
trans
emergency
fund
maintains
a
support
network
that
trans
folks
across
massachusetts
can
tap
into
whether
they're
facing
discrimination.
A
This
essential
work
is
often
underfunded,
I'll
just
say
that
always
underfunded
and
overlooked,
and
I'm
so
grateful
to
tef
and
the
organizations
across
our
city
that
recognize
the
urgency
of
providing
support
and
services
to
the
queer
community.
Here
in
boston
leaders
like
chastity
and
organizations
like
tef
have
fought
for
decades
to
secure
and
protect
rights
and
freedoms
that
many
of
us
take
for
granted.
