Scandal-plagued city councilor wants to 'celebrate' at final meeting before leaving office
Briefly

Tania Fernandes Anderson, a Boston City Councilor who recently pleaded guilty to federal corruption charges, is set to leave office on July 4. As she prepares for her final council meeting, she has invited constituents to celebrate her tenure. However, her announcement has elicited criticism from fellow councilors like Ed Flynn, who emphasizes the need for ethical reforms in light of her legal troubles. Despite calls for her resignation from various officials, Fernandes Anderson has outlined a plan for civic engagement and transparency before her departure.
"Instead of a celebration, [the Boston City Council] should be working together to implement a strict code of conduct and ethics reform for city elected officials."
"Let's celebrate all we've built together, and look ahead to the bright paths still to come," she said in the post.
