Wu, to become the next mayor of Boston. She is a strong advocate for public education, healthcare, our environment, and economic justice for all. I look forward to continuing to partner with Michelle on issues that matter to residents across the Commonwealth, and to join city and state government in bringing diverse voices into the process,” said State Representative Tram Nguyen.
