Justin M. Bibb

Grateful for Council President Griffin's leadership & @clecitycouncil.bsky.social partnership in closing this difficult chapter. The $100M agreement with the Browns protects taxpayers, clears long-standing obstacles, & finally positions our lakefront to be the world-class asset Clevelanders deserve.

With new cadets, Cleveland EMS will have full staffing for the first time in decades, official says Once its latest class of recruits graduate, Cleveland EMS will have a full staff for the first time in decades.

Returning our Emergency Medical Services to full staffing has been one of my top safety priorities -- and we’ve met it. That means more ambulances on the street, quicker response times, and a safer city for everyone. www.cleveland.com/news/2025/11...

Today I joined a coalition of leaders who are signing onto the Building Brighter Futures Plan. We know it won't be easy, but it's the right thing to do to make sure CMSD has the resources it needs to give every scholar the opportunities they deserve.

We’re announcing a 30-day pause on all Cleveland utility disconnections. With the govt. shut down and SNAP benefits delayed, we want families to have some breathing room. This pause is about stability, compassion, and making sure no one loses essential services.

Cleveland invests nearly $2 million in city businesses, including historic BBQ restaurant Mayor Justin Bibb announces investments benefiting southeast Cleveland, boosting businesses like Wendy Dennis's Mount Pleasant Bar-B-Q with $93,000 for upgrades.

The Cleveland Era extends well beyond downtown. We’re making sure it reaches into every neighborhood, especially the places that were too often blocked from prosperity and investment. That’s what the Southeast Side Promise is all about. www.wkyc.com/article/news...

Mayor Bibb's push to build a 21st-century City Hall He campaigned on "modern, responsive" city government and has launched various digital tools.

Before I took office, outdated systems got in the way of our ability to serve residents. I felt – and still feel – a lot of urgency about modernizing city government. Because with effective and efficient systems, we can do more for people and do it better. www.axios.com/local/clevel...

A mayoralty of youth and energy - Justin Bibb’s first four years did not disappoint: editorial Bibb is exactly the right person to serve as Cleveland mayor now and for the next four years. We look forward to what he will do with a second term -- and what he might do when he moves to his next challenge, writes the editorial board of The Plain Dealer and cleveland.com.

Deeply appreciate the words of encouragement from the Plain Dealer Editorial Board. I'm proud of what we've accomplished so far, but I know that our work isn’t done. www.cleveland.com/opinion/2025...

Cleveland crime initiative leads to 16 felony arrests, 11 firearms seized The operation is part of an ongoing effort launched in 2023 by Gov. DeWine and Cleveland Mayor Justin Bibb to reduce violent crime in the city.

Grateful for Gov. DeWine's partnership. Building safer communities requires collaboration and creativity. That means both working with grassroots groups to reach at-risk youth AND partnering with state law enforcement to get illegal weapons off the street.

When people have faith that their government works for them and not just the powerful few – our entire nation is stronger. That work starts locally. Since taking office, my administration has been on a mission to make Cleveland’s government better serve the people of Cleveland. We’ve done that by improving city services, leveraging public and private funds to revitalize under-resourced neighborhoods, and building safer communities through youth programs and better, more accountable policing. I’m proud to have the support of People For the American Way in our fight to deliver the full substance of freedom, justice, and democracy to every Clevelander.

@peoplefor.bsky.social have been on the frontlines of making the promise of "liberty and justice for all" real. Honored to have their support. www.peoplefor.org/people-ameri...

How Cleveland is working to grow the city’s middle class Cleveland is steeping up enforcement of worker-focused laws officials are hoping will help to grow the city's middle class.

My grandparents and parents belonged unions. I owe a lot to the labor movement. I'm proud of the work we've done to improve conditions for working people in Cleveland - raising wages, improving transparency, & cracking down on wage theft. And more to come. signalcleveland.org/how-clevelan...

Mary Rose Oakar served Cleveland and this country with courage and compassion. As our city’s own trailblazer—first Democratic woman from Ohio in the U.S. House, advocate for women’s health, seniors, and our waterfront—her legacy lifts us up. Rest in power.

Gathered with Team Bibb today to launch our re-election campaign where it began: the Southeast Side. A lot has changed since 2021, but I am still committed to improving safety, keeping neighborhoods strong, & creating good jobs. Grateful for our community. We rise together.

When I said Cleveland Can't Wait, I meant it. When voters agreed with me, I knew we had to get started right away. We have done so much together, but we are not done yet. I invite you to join us and keep the momentum going. #RightLeaderRealResults

Congratulations to all the candidates who made it through to the general election.

I also want to express my admiration for everyone who threw their hat in the ring.

Running for office is fundamentally a hopeful act. Thank you for working to make our city better.
