Todos los agentes patrulleros de @police.boston.gov llevarán su nombre en su uniforme. Esto forma parte de un nuevo acuerdo contractual con la Boston Police Patrolmen’s Association, que prioriza la seguridad pública y la confianza y el bienestar de los agentes.

All @police.boston.gov patrol officers will now wear their names as part of their uniform. It’s one part of a new contract agreement with the Boston Police Patrolmen’s Association that prioritizes public safety, community trust, and officer wellbeing.

Live soon — @mayorwu.boston.gov announces details of a new collective bargaining agreement between the City of Boston and the Boston Police Patrolmen’s Association.

The Trump administration is trying to weaponize Public Service Loan Forgiveness with an illegal rule that would disqualify borrowers who work for governments and nonprofits the administration disagrees with. Boston is filing suit with cities, unions, and nonprofits across the country to stop them.

Boston Public Schools are seeing real, meaningful progress under our administration. We’re going to keep fighting for everything that our young people deserve. #BostonSOTS
