Sen. Elizabeth Warren endorses Michelle Wu in Boston mayoral bid
Boston City Councilor Michelle Wu received a high-level endorsement in her campaign to become mayor of Boston.
Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren announced her support for Wu on Saturday.
“I’ve been proud to fight alongside Michelle over the last 7 years,” she said in a tweet. “She gets out and does the work that needs to be done to make a difference in people’s lives.”
Wu is a former student of Warren, having studied under her at Harvard Law School. She went on to volunteer on her senatorial campaign in 2012 before running for the Boston City Council in 2013.
She became the first Asian-American woman on the council when she was elected at 28 years old. She went on to serve as council president in 2016, the first woman of color in the role.
