~ Political Announcement ~ Joanne McKenna announces Candidacy for At-Large Seat

Dear Revere Residents;

It is with great pleasure that I announce my candidacy for Councillor-At-Large in 2025. My decision to transition from Ward One Councillor to Councillor at Large stems from my deep compassion and love for this city as a whole.

For 43 years, I have dedicated myself to the Revere community, serving as a Revere Public School Teacher for 33 years and as a Ward One City Councillor for the past decade. My commitment to the people and the city of Revere is unwavering, and I am passionate about seeing our city prosper.

Reflecting on the past 10 years as a councillor, I am proud of the many motions I have introduced to benefit the city. These initiatives have made a significant impact, including banning plastic bags, polystyrene, and billboards; regulating Airbnb’s and short-term rentals; prohibiting tobacco, drugs, and alcohol in public city parks; implementing 12-hour snow removal, extending yard waste and street sweeping until December, less invasive rat poison which would protect our wildlife and domestic animals and supporting daycare services, to name a few.

I want to extend my heartfelt gratitude to the residents of Ward One for their overwhelming support over the past decade. I hope you will continue to support me in my new endeavor as Councillor at Large.

Sincerely yours,

Joanne McKenna
