Cambridge Unity Rally

I am so lucky to live in Cambridge!  On Monday, we held a rally in support of our immigrant population and our resolve to remain a Sanctuary City.  It was the day after the Super Bowl and I was exhausted but I made it a point to go to this event because I love my city and support our elected officials decision to remain a Sanctuary City.

Our city officials, including the mayor and vice-mayor, spoke at the event.  I was really very impressed with our both of these officials.  Our Mayor, Denise Simmons, spoke forcefully and emotionally about our great city and the fact that we will not bend to threats to federal funding.  I love that she refused to use the word president when referring to DT, instead calling him Mr. T (I can't even bring myself to write his name) until he acts like a president.  Our vice-mayor Marc McGovern also spoke from the heart and summed up all that is great with Cambridge.  I had never heard him speak before and boy was I impressed.

I loved seeing people from all races, backgrounds, ages, and genders standing together!  We are united together and Cambridge is stronger for it!

Our city hall was beautifully decorated by members of the community.  It makes me so proud to live here!
