Today, we honor & celebrate all mothers, grandmothers & mother figures whose love & sacrifice help shape our families & communities. We also lift up those missing their mothers & mothers grieving the loss of a child. Happy Mother’s Day. 💐 #SavannahStrong

I’m troubled by today’s #SCOTUS ruling striking down Louisiana’s map. Even if Sec. 2 of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 remains, decisions like this chip away at hard-fought protections. Get ready, GA. This won’t stop at LA. When voices are diluted, democracy suffers. #gapol

LMAOOO THE SAVANNAH MAYOR IS ONE OF THE COOLEST PEOPLE I’VE MET!!!! And I love this 🤣

Grateful that the President, First Lady, and all at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner were safe. There is no place for political violence by anyone, against anyone. We can disagree without being violently disagreeable. Let’s find common ground.

The Savannah Mayor was not playing with you hoes 😭

This holiday season, @MayorJohnsonSAV and Dr. Abby Abisigun have an important message to share: Your health can't wait for the new year. A quick screening now means more time with the people you love. Watch their message and take action today: familyheart.org/CCkit #MoveWithTheMayor #HeartHealth #LDLCCantWait @cityofsavannah  @OurMayors  @ABCardio1  @FamilyHeartFdn

Deeply saddened by the untimely passing of @BishopRTJackson who changed GA & loved Savannah. A fearless ambassador of God, he always spoke up for the downtrodden. He was my confidant, mentor & spiritual advisor. I am blessed to know him. We have lost a giant. Rest well, Sir.

Today, we honor the lives of transgender individuals lost to hate and violence around this nation. On #TransgenderDayofRemembrance we mourn, we stand with our trans community, and we reaffirm that in #Savannah, YOU belong HERE! #TDOR #SavannahStrong

Public transit is not just about buses or routes it’s about people. @GaChatham and @ChathamTransit must work things out for the benefit of our entire community. Mayor Van R. Johnson, II #Savannah, GA

Yesterday’s “Building Healthier Communities” briefing featured powerful insights from members of the @OurMayors, who are proving that local leadership drives national change. Here are a few key takeaways from the conversation: ✅Mayors move communities. As @MayorJohnsonSAV, Georgia, reminded us, “When mayors move, communities move as well.” ✅Small cities make a big impact. Mayor Kim Thomas of Richmond Heights, Ohio, shared how her city’s weekly yoga, bike rides, and line dancing events keep residents connected — physically and mentally. ✅Partnerships are powerful. Mayor @Monichols of @cityoftulsagov, Oklahoma, described how Move with the Mayor® inspired new public-private partnerships, including the city’s Office of Health and Well-being, which integrates mental and physical health across city programs. ✅Health is personal. Many mayors spoke about why wellness is at the heart of their leadership — from personal experiences to a shared belief that prioritizing community health is just as important as improving infrastructure. 💬 Thank you to AAMA and featured speakers for spotlighting these inspiring leaders.

“Politics is politics, but health is real.” @cityofsavannah, Georgia, @MayorJohnsonSAV reminded us during yesterday’s “Building Healthier Communities” briefing that mayors have the power to do more than improve infrastructure. They can help people live longer, healthier lives. Through Move with the Mayor®, leaders like Mayor Johnson are showing how local action can inspire national change by: ✅Building connections that support mental and physical health ✅Encouraging active, healthy living for all residents ✅Using their platform as trusted messengers to elevate public health 👏 Thank you, Mayor Johnson, for leading by example and reminding us that stronger communities start with healthier people.

CMAC students played a central role in helping to produce @MayorJohnsonSAV's state of the city address thanks to a partnership with the @cityofsavannah communications team. The city's comms team is embedded in Prof. Margaret William's Strategic Communication Lab class. Everyone has been working on this project the entire semester. Students helped to create and produce video cut-ins about the city's progress during the live state of the city address, designed graphics, and assisted with production roles during the mayor's presentation at the Dr. Otis S. Johnson Cultural Arts Center. We are so grateful for this major resume-building opportunity and are overwhelmed by the amount of personal attention given to our students by the mayor and his team to help coach and mentor students during this successful event. #industryembeddedlearning #AurelleRoss #AriunaDorsey #JMC #SSU

“Every day this shutdown drags on, the cost to our cities and our people grows heavier. The administration and Congress must put politics aside, act with urgency, and restore stability by ending this shutdown now...” -@MayorJohnsonSAV Full statement here: ourmayors.org/african-americ…

Today we honor the veterans among our AAMA mayors and all who have served our nation with courage and sacrifice. Your leadership in service and in community inspires us all. #OurMayors

I am devastated to learn of the sudden closure of @IntlPaperCo after 88 years in #Savannah. My thoughts are with the 650 employees & families impacted. As Savannah always does, we will come together to support our neighbors & help create new opportunities. #SavannahStrong
