**Caroline Simmons - Mayor of Stamford**

Yesterday morning, the City of Stamford marked an important moment in its civic life with the official swearing-in ceremony for Mayor Caroline Simmons and other newly elected city officials.

The ceremony took place at the UCONN Stamford, where community members, local leaders, and state officials gathered to welcome the city’s next chapter of leadership.

The event featured a distinguished lineup of speakers, underscoring the significance of the occasion. Attorney General William Tong administered the oath of office to Mayor Simmons, while U.S. Senator Richard Blumenthal, Governor Ned Lamont, and Lieutenant Governor Susan Bysiewicz offered remarks celebrating Stamford’s accomplishments and the work ahead.

The ceremony highlighted the strong partnerships between city and state leadership, as well as the collective dedication to serving residents with integrity and purpose.

As Stamford moves into the next term of leadership, yesterday’s swearing-in stands as both a celebration of democratic tradition and a reaffirmation of the city’s shared vision for progress and opportunity for all.

Following her swearing-in, Mayor Simmons reflected on the privilege of serving the city for a second term, sharing:

“Today, I was honored to be sworn in for my second term as Mayor of Stamford. Thank you to all the elected officials, faith and community leaders, and city employees who were present for this special day. I first ran for office because I believed deeply in the power of good government to improve the lives of others and make a difference in our community. That belief has guided me and my administration over the past four years, and I look forward to continuing to work with our local, state, and federal leaders to build on what we’ve accomplished and to tackle the challenges ahead, so that every Stamford resident has the opportunity to thrive.”
