“Sixteen years ago, I came to this country from Cameroon in search of opportunity. Like so many families in our district, I know what it means to struggle.”
(Ballotpedia Candidate Connection (2026)) “Despite years of efforts to combat the high cost of living in Greater Boston, our neighbors are still being priced out of Medford and Somerville. I have experienced this personally, moving five times during my first six years in Somerville.”
(Campaign website (willmbah.com)) “When I first moved to Somerville, I didn’t own a car or have the money to purchase one. Relying on public transit meant that I often spent more time commuting than being with family and friends.”
