WHEREAS: The Cambridge City Council was deeply saddened at learning of the death of United States Representative John Joseph "Joe" Moakley on May 28, 2001; and
WHEREAS: Representative Moakley was born on April 27, 1927 and he grew up in South Boston's Old Harbor Housing Project; at age 15, he convinced the authorities he was of legal age to enlist in the Navy; after the war he earned a law degree at Suffolk University, became a state insurance auditor and decided to enter politics; and
WHEREAS: His first political contest was for the Massachusetts House of Representatives in 1950. He lost by 199 votes. Two years later he won and went on to serve four terms in the House; and
WHEREAS: In 1957, Representative Moakley married the love of his life, Evelyn Duffy of Cambridge; and
WHEREAS: After losing a state senate race to then-Senate President John E. Powers in 1960, he succeeded Senator Powers to the seat when he stepped down in 1964; six years later, he lost a primary election for the Ninth Congressional District to Louise Day Hicks, then ran for Boston City Council and topped the ticket; and
WHEREAS: Knowing the difficulty he would have running against Louise Day Hicks in the Democratic primary, in 1972 Joe Moakley ran for Congress as an independent and won by 3,448 votes; and
WHEREAS: Representative Moakley was the dean of the New England House delegation; in the words of Boston Globe reporter Mark Feeney, he "was among the last of a breed: the down-to-earth pol from Massachusetts who walked the corridors of congressional power with the easy familiarity - and bluff authority - of a cop on the beat;" and
WHEREAS: Although there was some talk in the 1980's of Joe Moakley possibly succeeding Tip O'Neil as Speaker of the House, he was content to remain on the powerful Rules Committee, of which he spent 4 ½ years as Chairman and at the time of his death was ranking minority member; and
WHEREAS: Representative Moakley used his political power for his constituents; he never forgot where he came from and was heard to say "I grew up in South Boston politics, where the politician was the guy who put turkey on the table at Christmas if the husband wasn't working;" and
WHEREAS: Among the programs for which he was instrumental in procuring funds were the Central Artery/Tunnel project; the Boston Harbor cleanup; the Fort Point Channel bridge; establishment of Boston's African-American National Historic Site; grants to Massachusetts colleges, universities, and hospitals; home-heating allowances; and the federal courthouse on Fan Pier. On March 13, at his first Rose Garden signing ceremony, President Bush signed legislation naming the building for Representative Moakley; and
WHEREAS: Representative Moakley was also a leading authority on U.S.- Latin American relations in the 1980's and the 1990's; he gathered the evidence of the Salvadorean military's involvement in the murder of six Jesuit priests in El Salvador in 1989 that led to Congress cutting its aid to El Salvador in 1990 and turned the tide of U.S. relations with the brutal dictatorship of that country; and
WHEREAS: Representative Moakley is survived by his two brothers, Robert of Quincy and Thomas of Braintree; and
WHEREAS: Representative Moakley will be sorely missed by all he touched and loved; now therefore be it
RESOLVED: That this City Council go on record extending its deepest sympathy to the family of John Joseph Moakley at this time of such personal loss; and be it further
RESOLVED: That the City Clerk be and hereby is requested to forward a suitably engrossed copy of this resolution to the Moakley family on behalf of the entire City Council.
