Higher Heights for
America PAC Endorses Mayor Kim Janey
BOSTON — Citing her dedication to community and public service, Higher Heights for
America PAC – the only political action committee exclusively dedicated to
electing progressive Black women to public office – has endorsed Mayor Kim
Janey in the 2021 Boston mayoral race.
“Higher
Heights for America is proud to endorse Kim Janey for Mayor of Boston,
Massachusetts,” the organization said. “As a fourth-generation resident
of Roxbury, Kim has dedicated her life to serving her community.”
In the 2021 New York City mayoral primary, Higher Heights endorsed two candidates: Maya Wiley and Dianne Morales. In the 2021 Boston mayoral primary, they are endorsing one candidate: Mayor Kim Janey.
“I am so honored and grateful to have the support of Higher Heights,” said Mayor Kim Janey. “As the first woman and first Black mayor of Boston, my life experiences inform how I govern – and how I lead our City – through a lens of equity, justice and love for every single resident. We are building our own tables and pulling up chairs for those who have been left behind – and there is enough space for everyone.”
Since 2014, with the support of their network of members,
activists, volunteers and supporters, Higher Heights PAC has helped Black women
grow their political leadership and representation. They helped elect the first
Black and female Vice President of the United States, and sent one Black woman
to serve in the U.S. Senate; 10 Black women to serve in the U.S. House of
Representatives; three Black women to serve in statewide office; and four Black
women to serve as mayors for cities that rank among the country’s 100 most
populated.

core on behalf of the racial, social, economic and human rights of all the
people of Boston — and beyond.”
