Mayor Bloomberg has spent his career helping government do better for all people. Yesterday he was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom for this commitment.
Thank you, Mike Bloomberg, for inspiring us and so many city leaders to always aim higher.
Congratulations, Mike Bloomberg, on your Presidential Medal of Freedom. I am reflecting on the hundreds and hundreds of mayors you've mentored, uplifted, and resourced--through tough times and good ones--and the millions of lives made better as a result. Proud to be on your team.
We see the leadership of Mike Bloomberg every day in the hundreds of dedicated city staff making their communities better places to call home.
The What Works Cities team is grateful for his support, guidance and commitment to city governments around the world.
