Joe Ganim Swearing In and Speech

#Bridgeport CT–Mayor Joe Ganim was sworn in at 7:42 pm at the Klein Auditorium in front of about 1,000 well wishers. Ganim said “I have learned that in America—and particularly in this great city–if you are true to a cause, work hard, and are not afraid to ask for a second chance, you can find and experience that moment of redemption.” He also said T.S. Eliot wrote–”… last year’s words belong to last year’s language–and next year’s words await another voice.” WE ARE THAT VOICE.

“This new administration-–YOUR ADMINISTRATION–will work hard to always treat people with RESPECT while showing HUMILITY as we work to improve the quality of life for all of our residents…… “One of the most important first steps for me as your Mayor will be to make city hall a more welcoming place and ensure Bridgeport’s city government reflects the diverse composition of our great city. We will appoint talented managers to champion reforms so government works better for everyone.”

Ganim closed with “Today is the day we begin to bring about the positive results that everyone desires. Together we will realize the promise of Connecticut’s largest city.”
