Medford City Councilor Adam Knight Running For Re-Election

MEDFORD, MA — City Councilor Adam Knight is running for re-election in November. Knight, the current vice president of the Council, was first elected in 2013 and has served in several leadership roles over nearly a decade.

"I'm honored and privileged to have served the people of Medford since 2014, and I am humbled by their faith and confidence in me to represent their interests on the City Council," Knight said. "With the support of my wife Alison and sons Brendan and Ryan, I enthusiastically announce my candidacy for re-election to the Medford City Council. I remain as excited, energized and committed as my first day in office and look forward to running on my record of hard work, accomplishment, and leadership."

Knight said he is a "solid and unwavering supporter" of working families, leading the effort to establish Medford's Wage Theft and Responsible Employer Ordinances, the Inclusionary Affordable Housing Ordinance and zoning reform.

"Since day one, I have always focused on results, not rhetoric, and remain readily accessible, working every day to validate and reaffirm the trust the voters have placed in me," said Knight.

Knight remains focused on expanding educational opportunities, improving city-wide service delivery, fiscal accountability and the long-term investment in modernizing Medford's facilities, infrastructure and business districts.

He said he believes local government can create a "Medford that works for everyone."

"Together, we have accomplished so much, but there's still a great deal of work to be done," Knight said. "With the worst of COVID hopefully behind us, the future looks bright indeed. As more and more people now look to Medford as the best place to live, work, and raise a family, you have my commitment that I will continue to work every day to improve the lives of those in our community."
