City Council District 4

Boston, MA

Andrea Campbell

City Councilor

Pledge Summary

City Councilor Andrea Campbell represents District 4 in the city of Boston, which includes parts of Dorchester, Mattapan, Roslindale, and Jamaica Plain; one of the most diverse districts in the City. Unfortunately, many of our neighborhoods have historically been under-resourced and under-served, which is why she often says that if we solve the issues plaguing District 4, we solve the issues of the entire City of Boston. In pushing the City to serve all its neighborhoods equitably, environmental justice is one of the issues that rises to the top. Monarch butterflies play a crucial role in our ecosystem, so Councilor Campbell is happy to take this pledge and do her part to protect their habitat in Boston.
