Boston Mayor Martin Walsh expressed gratitude to the US Olympic Committee for its decision to put New England's largest city forward as a bidder for the 2024 Summer Olympic Games.

“It is an exceptional honor for Boston to be chosen as the US representative in the running for the 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games,” Walsh said in a statement. “Our goal is to host an Olympic and Paralympic Games that are innovative, walkable and hospitable to all.”
