@michcast05 Supporting Gloria Casarez Elementary School would be incredible! Check out the @CasarezTigers !

@justmaybechris Awesome! Congratulations!

@prisonculture Seriously. We’ve banned kids from the mall. The libraries close at 6, at best. Rec centers are understaffed and therefore also closed when we need them most. Where are teens supposed to just hang out and enjoy being in community?

@CMcGeeIII He doesn’t own our Oregon Ave location, thank goodness!

Shame on @TheUnionLeague. Observing of all the smug fascist sympathizers walking into the building to see @RonDeSantisFL get an award made me realize these folks don't care about people or folks anger, but they are scared of our ideas. We need to continue teaching the truth!

@RepMGS This bill does more to protect churches than same-sex marriages. It doesn’t codify marriage. It’s disappointing to see this being touted as a safeguard, when it isn’t close yet.

Sasha Suda where are you?

We are truly in disbelief and saddened by the abject failure of leadership. Are you CEO in name only? In pay only? Hiding doesn’t absolve you. People will not forget that you kept us outside and refused to show your face.

[Aileen Haggerty @captahag]

@philamuseum Shameful. You should have showed up at the negotiations today. Really, you should have figured out a contract a long time ago, giving workers the pay and benefits they deserve.

THREAD: I have studied crime data and police violence for years. I have come away from this work with the firm belief that police commit many more illegal physical assaults than the number of arrests that they make for serious crime.

@CMcGeeIII That sounds new. And not cool.

With the $20 million going to wage tax cuts, we could instead fund 250 school counselors and nurses, 7 day/week libraries or expanded mental health mobile crisis units. Who are these cuts really for, if the average person will save less than $2/month? #TaxtheRich #WealthTaxPHL

2 years into this pandemic, our city has largely "reopened" but free, public
libraries still scrape by with
few evening and no weekend hours.
Strong libraries are essential for the safety and well-being of our city, @Darrell_Clarke.

@ResearchPhilly @AGreaterPhilly Rep Fiedler just helped the library (in the flyer photo) secure a $20k grant. She secured a $68,751 state grant for SEYAA to install lights on the baseball field. An additional $60,000 was awarded for repairs to be made to the Ford PAL Center. What’s that about anti-playground?

@pennmuseum If you’re talking about respect, the first thing that needs to happen is that you #ReturnDelisha

[Aileen Haggerty @captahag]

@pmgentry @ResearchPhilly I wondered if that was the “replacement.” A head start/pre-k was also lost. Powel also made it clear they wouldn’t take any of our students at the time.

[Aileen Haggerty @captahag]

@pmgentry @ResearchPhilly I used to work at a shelter for families only 2 blocks from PAS. But they drew the catchment lines a block and half away so our families had to walk almost a mile to Drew. PAS and the district made it clear that students from our families would never be admitted to PAS.

[Claudia Jones School for Political Education @ClaudiaJonesEdu]

Only four free COVID tests after almost two full years of the pandemic.

No more stimulus checks.

No universal healthcare.

No workplace protections.

No relief for working people.

It cannot be more obvious that the US government is in a formal alliance with Big Business.
