Martin Joseph Walsh (born April 10, 1967) is an American politician and trade union official who served as the mayor of Boston from 2014 to 2021 and as the 29th United States Secretary of Labor from 2021 to 2023. A member of the Democratic Party, Walsh resigned from his position as the US Secretary of Labor in March 2023 in order to accept a position as executive director of the National Hockey League Players' Association. Before his mayoralty, he served as a member of the Massachusetts House of Representatives, representing the 13th Suffolk district from 1997 until 2014. As a trade union member, Walsh worked his way up to serve as the head of the Boston Building Trades Council from 2011 until 2013.
Walsh was elected mayor of Boston
Serving from March 2021 until March 2023 in
Early life, education, and career
Walsh was born on April 10, 1967, in Dorchester, Boston, to John Walsh, an Irish American originally from Callowfeenish, a townland near Carna, County Galway, and Mary (née O'Malley), from Rosmuc, Co. Galway.[2] Walsh's parents emigrated separately but married in the United States in 1959.[3] His parents both left from Shannon Airport, with his father leaving in 1956 and his mother leaving in 1959.[4]
Walsh grew up in the
Walsh initially dropped out of college[10] and entered the field of construction.[11] He later took night classes as an adult, and received a Bachelor of Arts degree in social science from the Woods College of Advancing Studies at Boston College in 2009.[7][10]
In an early venture into politics, Walsh was a political volunteer for President of the Massachusetts Senate William Bulger. Walsh later volunteered for State Representative James T. Brett's campaign in the 1993 Boston mayoral election. Brett lost to Thomas Menino, who Walsh would numerous times come to be at odds with during his political career.[12]
Massachusetts state representative (1997–2014)
Elections
In 1996, Walsh ran an unsuccessful
Committee assignments
During his tenure, Walsh served as the co-chair for the Special Commission on Public Construction Reform.[16] He also served as chair of the House Homeland Security and Federal Affairs Committee, as well as the chair of the House Committee on Ethics.[17] He was also vice chair of the Joint Committee on Consumer Protection and Professional Licensure and the vice chair of the Joint Committee on Municipalities and Regional Government. Other committees he served on included the Joint Committee on Banks and Banking; Joint Committee on Environment, Natural Resources and Agriculture; Joint Committee on Health Care; Joint Committee on the Judiciary; Joint Committee on Mental Health and Substance Abuse, Joint Committee on Public Safety; House Personnel and Administration Committee; and House Steering, Policy and Scheduling Committee.[17]
Votes and sponsored legislation
Walsh supported same-sex marriage.[12] In 2004, Walsh voted against legislation that would define marriage in Massachusetts as being between "one man and one woman". The following year, he voted against separate legislation that would have limited marriage to heterosexual couples.[18] In supporting Walsh's 2013 mayoral campaign, Arline Isaacson, co-chairwoman of the Massachusetts Gay and Lesbian Political Caucus, credited Walsh with having worked to urge more conservative members of the state legislature against passing a ban on same-sex marriage after a decision by the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court legalized same-sex marriage in Massachusetts in 2004.[19] In 2007, Walsh voted against a same-sex marriage ban, which was defeated 45–151.[20] In 2013 and 2023 interviews, Walsh has called this, "the proudest vote I ever took as a state legislator."[21][22] In 2013, Walsh was one of several legislators that signed onto a joint petition introduced by Representative Sarah Peake and Senator Patricia D. Jehlen that established the Special Commission on LGBT Aging.[23]
After Governor
Ahead of the ultimate passage of the Massachusetts health care reform, Walsh supported efforts related to reform healthcare in Massachusetts with the goal of universal coverage.[27] Walsh joined the vast majority of the House in voting in support of the healthcare reform legislation. Only two votes were cast against the legislation.[28] After the healthcare reform legislation was partially signed into law by Governor Romney, Walsh voted for the successful overrides of Romney's partial veto of segments of the healthcare legislation.[29]
Walsh was one of a number of co-sponsors on legislation to have Massachusetts join the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact which passed in the House on July 9, 2008.[30] In 2010, Walsh voted in support of similar legislation which passed the legislature and was signed into law by Governor Deval Patrick.[31][32]
On February 13, 2013, Walsh introduced a bill to have The Modern Lovers song "Roadrunner" be named the official rock song of Massachusetts.[33] The song's writer, Jonathan Richman, came out against this, saying, "I don't think the song is good enough to be a Massachusetts song of any kind."[34]
Other matters
Despite some organized local opposition from civic associations, Walsh supported the Pine Street Inn organization in their pursuit of converting a six-family house in his district into
In 2002, Walsh considered resigning from the state house in order to accept an appointment to serve as Suffolk County registrar of deeds, but ultimately declined the position and remained in the state house.[12]
In 2008, Walsh supported
Local union leadership positions (2001–2013)
Working as a construction worker,[11] at the age of 21 in 1988 Walsh joined Laborers' Union Local 223.[36][37] In 2001 he became its secretary, and in 2005 he became its president.[38] He served as its president until he became the mayor of Boston.[36] He also served as a co-chair of the Massachusetts Democratic Party Labor Caucus.[39]
In late-2010, Walsh was elected to serve as both the secretary-treasurer and general agent of Boston Building Trades Council, a union umbrella group. The general agent is the head of the group, and Walsh formally succeeded James Coyle in the office in January 2011.[38][40] The position of general manager paid Walsh $175,000 annually.[37] As general agent of the Boston Building Trades Council in 2011, he negotiated a 4% pay increase for 175 employees of the Boston Housing Authority.[38] He resigned as general agent in April 2013 when he announced that he was running for mayor, but at the time retained his position as president of Laborer's Union Local 223.[38][41]
In 2016, news emerged that, when Walsh was the general agent, his phone calls had been

Elections
In April 2013, Walsh announced he would run for Mayor of Boston in
On September 24, 2013, Walsh received a plurality of the vote, among twelve candidates in the mayoral preliminary election, with 18.4% of the vote.
Walsh received strong funding from trade unions.[49] Andrew Ryan of Boston.com wrote that the general election featured very few policy differences, and that Walsh won, in part, by projecting an "everyman" image and sharing a "compelling life story" involving his immigrant roots, childhood battle with cancer, and his battle with alcoholism.[49] Ryan also credited the general election endorsements of eliminated mayoral candidates John Barros, Felix G. Arroyo, and Charlotte Golar Richie as helping Walsh to overcome Connolly's initial polling lead.[49] Among the factors that have been credited for his victory over Connolly in the general election was a last-minute half-million dollars in television advertising against Connolly and in support of Walsh, secretly funded by the Boston Teachers Union. Connolly was a supporter of charter schools, and his education reform proposals had run into opposition from the union.[50]
In July 2017, Walsh announced he would seek a second term in the 2017 mayoral election.[51] On September 26, 2017, he received 62% of the vote in the preliminary election. He advanced to the general election and faced second place vote-getter, Boston City Councilor Tito Jackson, who had received 29% of the vote. Walsh defeated Jackson in the general election held on November 7,[52] with 65% of the vote, compared to Jackson's 34%. Walsh was sworn in for his second term on January 1, 2018; then-former vice-president Joe Biden presided at the ceremony.[53]
Walsh served as mayor of Boston from January 2015 through March 2021.

Walsh resigned as mayor on March 22, 2021, the same day that he was confirmed for his position in the Cabinet of Joe Biden.[59] Kim Janey, president of the Boston City Council, became acting mayor upon Walsh's resignation.[60]
Economy and fiscal matters
Walsh was seen as friendly towards
After Walsh left office, the editorial board of The Boston Globe would opine that, as mayor, Walsh, "kept Boston on an even keel financially and invited economic growth".[64] Similarly, Bill Forry of the Dorchester Reporter wrote that, prior to the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, Walsh's tenure was characterized by, "remarkable growth and relative peace and prosperity."[12] During Walsh's tenure, Boston maintained a AAA bond credit rating.[58]
In March 2015, Walsh supported City Councilor

Soon after taking office, Walsh appointed
In June 2020, Walsh created the Boston Police Reform Taskforce.[77] In October 2020, he pledged to adopt all of the final recommendations that the taskforce had made.[78] In January 2021, he signed into law an ordinance that created a police accountability office, one of the recommendations the taskforce had made.[77]
In a speech given on January 25, 2017, Walsh reaffirmed Boston's status as a
COVID-19 pandemic
Walsh was mayor during the first year of the
On March 16, 2020, Walsh announced the Boston Resiliency Fund, a city-led fundraising effort to support programs and charities serving those impacted by the pandemic.[89][90] Walsh established the Boston Rental Relief Fund in April 2020, using $3 million of city funds. The fund, using city dollars, would provide aid to those at risk of losing their rental residences amid the pandemic.[91] He later added an additional $5 million in June 2020.[92] At the end of Walsh's tenure, Jon Keller of WBZ-TV wrote that, "Walsh's calm, empathic leadership during the pandemic has drawn high marks from city residents."[58] Bill Forry of the Dorchester Reporter opined that Walsh had been a, "sure and steady hand during a time of unprecedented crisis."[12]
Other matters
On October 8, 2014, Walsh, citing the advice of various City departments, agencies and leaders, and the
Boston was originally selected as the United States' bid city for the 2024 Summer Olympics. Walsh supported Boston bid for the 2024 Summer Olympics,[97] regarding it as an opportunity to elevate Boston's international profile.[58] In October 2014, Walsh had signed a letter stating that he would sign the Host City Contract without reservation; however, in July 2015, he stated that he was not comfortable signing the financial guarantee in its current form at that time.[97] This was one of a number of events that led to the cancelation of Boston's bid for the Olympics on July 27, 2015.[98] Boston's bid had run into opposition from residents.[58]
In 2015, Walsh launched the Climate Ready Boston initiative to prepare Boston for the effects of climate change.[99] Walsh also served in the leadership of C40 Cities Climate Leadership Group.[100]
Walsh's handling of education has received criticism, being regarded as a significant shortcoming of his tenure as mayor.[64][58] In Walsh's time as mayor, Boston cycled through several school superintendents, with there being two permanent and two interim superintendents serving during his mayoralty.[58] Towards the end of 2014, Walsh proposed and negotiated a 40-minute extension to the school day of Boston Public Schools,[101][102] which was implemented.[103] A 2020 state audit of Boston Public Schools found the city to lack any, "clear, coherent, district-wide strategy for supporting low-performing schools."[104]
Walsh supported an ordinance in the city council which regulated
In June 2020, Walsh declared
Secretary of Labor (2021–2023)
On January 7, 2021, Walsh was announced by President-elect Joe Biden to be his designated nominee for secretary of labor.[115] On February 11, 2021, the United States Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions voted to move Walsh's confirmation forward to a full Senate vote.[116] The nomination was confirmed by the United States Senate on March 22, 2021, by a vote of 68–29.[117][118] He was the final department secretary of Biden's Cabinet to be confirmed.[119] The day after being confirmed, he was sworn in by Vice President Kamala Harris.[120]
Walsh is the first Cabinet secretary to openly be in a twelve-step program for recovery from addiction.[121] As secretary, amid a national rise in addiction, Walsh has discussed his own experience with alcoholism,[122] and has participated in addiction-related events.[123] Walsh was also the first former union leader to serve in the position in roughly 45 years,[124] since the tenure of William Usery Jr.[125]
Walsh was criticized for spending a substantial amount of time during his tenure as secretary of labor away from Washington, D.C., where the United States Department of Labor is headquartered, and instead in Boston.[126]
Walsh tendered his resignation from the Department of Labor effective March 11, 2023 in order to serve as the executive director of the player's union of the National Hockey League.[127]
In an opinion piece published by MSNBC at the end of Walsh's tenure, Hamilton Nolan credited Walsh with shepherding a number "beneficial but not transformative" regulations which benefited the bargaining position of workers, including federal contractors and independent contractors. However, he argued that Walsh disappointed the expectations that unionists had for his tenure, citing shortcomings of his tenure as well as direct actions such as his support of Biden's decision to allow congressional intervention in order to resolve the 2022 United States railroad labor dispute.[128] Kim Kelly of Fast Company called Walsh's tenure "tumultuous". Commenting that Walsh's union credentials had given union members high hopes at the start of Walsh's tenure, Kelly wrote, "as his short tenure comes to an end, it's hard to say how well the former Boston mayor lived up to those expectations."[125] In a September 2022 piece for The New Republic, Timothy Noah called Walsh's tenure "surprisingly disappointing," writing that Walsh, "hasn't gotten all that much done at the Labor Department." Noah partially faulted what he saw as a lack of progress on key projects by the Department of Labor during Walsh's tenure on the failure of the Biden Administration, by that time, to fill the positions of secretary for the Employee Benefits Security Administration and assistant secretary for the Wage and Hour Division with senate-confirmed appointees.[126]
Trade unions
Ben Penn of Bloomberg Law reported that, as labor secretary, Walsh lobbied trade unions not to criticize the prospective appointment of David Weil, which helped to clear the path for Biden to nominate Weil to serve as the administrator of the Wage and Hour Division without vocal union opposition.[129]
In October 2021, Walsh and Vice President Kamala Harris announced new guidelines aimed at encouraging more federal workers to join trade unions, with the objective of boosting the collective bargaining powers of American trade unions.[130] Also in October 2021, Walsh became the first labor secretary to visit a picket line and stand with the strikers when he visited the 2021 Kellogg's strike.[131][125]
Walsh mediated a December 2021 resolution between the
Changes to rules and standards
While Walsh was secretary, the Department of Labor finalized new rules on healthcare and
During Walsh's tenure, the Department of Labor enforced a temporary standards meant to protect workers from COVID-19. The policy was strongly advocated for by Walsh, but the Biden Administration delayed its rollout beyond its original mid-March 2021 target date. In June 2021, the first portion of the standard arose, encouraging healthcare workers to receive the COVID-19 vaccine, but not requiring such vaccination. In September 2021, Biden signed the Executive Order on Ensuring Adequate COVID Safety Protocols for Federal Contractors (EO 14042), which required large employers to have their employees either be vaccinated or receive weekly COVID testing.[126][136] However, in a January 2022 per curiam decision, Biden v. Missouri, the Supreme Court of the United States blocked this policy.[126][137]
Executive Director of the NHLPA (2023–present)
On February 7, 2023, it was reported that Walsh would leave the Cabinet to become head of the National Hockey League Players' Association (NHLPA), the National Hockey League (NHL)'s players' union.[138][139][140] He was formally confirmed unanimously[11] by the NHLPA's board of directors to hold that role on February 16, 2023, and the Department of Labor announced that he would leave office as secretary of labor and take office as executive director of the NHLPA in mid-March.[141] Walsh is reported to earn a $3 million annual salary in the position.[142] This is a significant increase over the $220,000 he was paid annually as secretary of labor.[143] In October 2023, The Athletic wrote, "in his introductory news conference in late March, Walsh vowed to bring a 'different' style of leadership, and it feels like Walsh is going with a more personal approach," observing that Walsh was making an effort to meet directly with all of the league's players, was holding phone calls with many players, and was giving players his personal cell phone number.[144]
Soon after taking office, commenting on the resistance of some players to wearing
At the end of the day, it's up to the individual about what they want to do. If a player doesn't want to wear a jersey in warm-up, they shouldn't be forced to. I think that's something that's important. But again, I think a lot of it is conversation, as well, and education.[145]
Walsh has disagreed with characterizations that players had opposed wearing jerseys on anti-LGBTQ grounds, and has instead characterized the motivations of those players as having been, "religious beliefs or political back home beliefs".[21] The league adopted a policy which prohibits such pride-themed jerseys from being worn.[144] After this new policy was adopted, Walsh stated that he expected all teams would still continue to hold pride nights without warmup jerseys, commenting, "wearing the jerseys is one aspect to Pride night, but most of the Pride festivities happen in or around the arena. It's unfortunate, it being a controversial issue as far as wearing the jerseys."[144]
In September 2023,
Walsh was supportive of the NHL and NHLPA reaching an agreement with the
In 2023, Walsh began to increase his public profile in Boston. Adam Reilly of WGBH observed in August 2023, "after keeping a relatively low profile locally during his time as President Biden's labor secretary, former Mayor Marty Walsh has been raising his profile in Boston over the past few months with a series of notable public appearances."[147] After having had his political activities limited by the Hatch Act while secretary of labor,[142] he began again involving himself in Boston politics after leaving the office. He made his first political endorsements since leaving office as mayor by endorsing two candidates in the 2023 Boston City Council election.[147][148]
In February 2024, Walsh criticized the arena situation of the Arizona Coyotes, who are temporarily playing in Mullett Arena (a 5,000-seat college hockey arena) with no settled plans for a new permanent venue. He opined that the team should be relocated to a new market if the situation cannot be quickly remedied.[149]
Nomination to serve as a governor of the United States Postal Service (2024)
On February 29, 2024, President Biden nominated Walsh to serve as a governor of the United States Postal Service.[150] Walsh is nominated to the seat left vacant by the departure of Lee Moak.[151] The nomination is currently pending confirmation by the U.S. Senate.[150]
Personal life
Walsh resides in the Lower Mills neighborhood of Dorchester, Boston with his longtime girlfriend Lorrie Higgins.[152][153] Despite the NHLPA being headquartered in Toronto, Canada, of 2023, Walsh was described as staying "firmly rooted in Boston."[142] Even while serving as secretary of labor, Walsh spent a large portion of his time in Boston.[126] Walsh had never established a residence in Washington, D.C. during his tenure as secretary of labor, instead opting to stay in hotels while in Washington, D.C. over the work week and returning to his Dorchester residence for weekends.[142]
Walsh has been a
Walsh is a Roman Catholic.[155] He speaks Irish and holds both American and Irish citizenship.[156]
Walsh considers himself to be a grandfather to the grandchild of Lorrie Higgins, his longtime partner.[142]
Alcoholism and recovery
Walsh is a recovering alcoholic. By the time he ran for mayor in 2013, he was eighteen years
Walsh's experience with addiction was a component of the life story of overcoming adversity which has been credited with helping Walsh to set himself apart as a candidate during his 2013 mayoral campaign.[49] Being the first Cabinet secretary to openly be in a twelve-step program for recovery from addiction,[121] he represented the Biden administration at a number of addiction recovery-related events during his time as secretary of labor.[123]
Since Walsh maintained a presence in Boston during his tenure as secretary of labor, he continued to attend meetings at his local Alcoholics Anonymous chapter during his tenure in that office.[142]
