Josh Boschee officially took the reins as Fargo’s first openly gay mayor on July 1, marking a historic moment for the city. Elected with 47% of the vote, he’s stepping into a full-time role with a $100K salary and plans to resign from his state legislative seat to focus entirely on city leadership. His first day involved routine setup, but he’s already staying grounded by connecting with seniors and prioritizing community engagement. Boschee’s top agenda includes tackling affordable housing through two new task forces and navigating a new 3% property tax cap. He’s also building strong ties with city commissioners to foster unity and a shared vision for Fargo’s future — all while hoping his leadership signals that the city welcomes everyone, no matter their background.

So next time you type, remember: how you say it matters as much as what you say.
