A
Good
afternoon,
everyone,
my
name,
is
councilman
curtis
jones,
I'm
the
chair
of
the
public
safety
committee
for
city
council.
I
want
to
thank
you
for
coming
to
the
city
of
brotherly
love
and
sisterly
affection,
but,
quite
frankly,
the
people
on
this
stage
will
tell
you
they
are
not
feeling
the
love.
A
A
Every
marine
biologist
in
the
world,
including
jack
gusto
ghost,
would
come
and
try
to
figure
out
why
this
tragedy,
for
the
first
time,
for
the
first
time,
member
guardian
for
the
first
time,
remember
kim
parker,
green
johnson,
I
feel
like
we
are.
We
have
risen
this
emergency
to
prominence
where
we're
putting
all
hands
on
deck
and
we're
working
together,
because
we
realize
we're
in
this
together.
A
Some
of
the
things
that
you're
going
to
hear
is:
how
did
the
shooter
become
that
trigger
puller
become
the
shooter?
How
did
he
get
there?
How
did
that
gun
get
there
and
how?
If
it
happened
more
than
once,
this
is
dead,
not
their
first
time
at
the
rodeo,
but
second
and
third
time.
What
in
the
system
do
we
need
to
tighten
up
to
make
sure
that
we
protect
citizens
and
the
individuals
pulling
a
trigger
one
of
the
things
that
we
have
kind
of
wrapped
our
head
around
vanessa
is
that
public
safety
isn't
versus
justice
reform.
A
A
The
quote
was
that
when
brown
and
black
men
get
locked
up,
brown
and
black
women
and
their
children
get
locked
out
say
it
again.
When
brown
and
black
men
get
locked
up,
brown
and
black
women
and
their
children
get
locked
out,
what
does
that
mean?
A
spiraling
sense
of
economic
disparity
happens
when
they
get
locked
up.
A
So
we
have
to
balance
that
with
the
other
young
lady
that
I
talked
to
whose
son
was
murdered
and
when
it
was
time
for
her
to
be
a
witness
said,
I'm
not
going
and
when
asked
why,
because
her
dead
son
was
the
victim.
She
said,
because
I
have
another
son
living
in
that
same
neighborhood
and
without
witness
protection
there
is
no
justice.
We
did
the
figures,
I
think
one
year
we
we
pledged
160
000
towards
witness
protection
it
equated.
A
Well,
you
can't
you
can't.
You
cannot
ignore
if
you're
asking
this
d.a
to
get
more
witnesses
to
show
up,
we
have
to
protect
them
and
that's
a
fact.
So
what
we
hope
to
do
is
this:
this.
This
report
will
either
be
a
blueprint
guideline
to
begin
further
discussions
on
how
to
deal
with
this
epidemic
in
our
city
or
it'll
sit
on
the
desk
collecting
dust.
A
A
A
She
she
was
the
straw
that
stirred
the
drink
of
cooperation.
You
see
here,
and
it
was
not
easy.
I
want
to
thank
mayor
kenny,
and
I
want
to
thank
our
police
commissioner,
danielle
outlaw
who
goes
out
there
every
day,
putting
boots
on
the
ground
and
dealing
with
what
what's
going
on
in
our
communities.
I
want
to
thank
d.a,
larry
krasner,
because
you
know
the
first
instinct
mostly
is
to
you
know
why
do
you
want
to
know?
A
A
I
want
to
thank
the
current
chief
defender,
ms
hudson,
and
then
the
former
chief
defender,
ms
care
bradford
gray,
for
their
contributions
to
this
our
city
controller,
who
is
now
represented
today
by
kellen
white
right
for
her
website
and
and
some
of
the
things
that
she's
been
able
to
enlighten
us
on
our
health.
Commissioner,
who
helped
us
look
at
this
in
a
in
a
pandemic
way
that
violence
begets
violence
just
like
any
other
disease,
and
we
are
thankful
for
her
observations
in
the
first
judicial
district.
B
B
The
committee
was
formed
in
september
of
2020
and
has
convened
several
meetings
over
the
last
year
and
a
half
the
committee's
work
started
by
first
reviewing
data
from
the
previous
hundred
shootings
at
the
time
that
the
committee
was
formed.
But
then
the
committee
quickly
expanded
the
data
to
review
over
two
thousand
shootings
to
have
a
better
idea
of
trends
that
were
affecting
the
current
state
of
gun
violence
in
our
city.
C
Thank
you
samantha,
first
and
foremost
before
I
start
my
brief
from
rex,
I'm
going
to
ask
for
everyone
to
give
samantha
williams
another
round
of
applause,
because.
C
I
was
in
several
meetings
with
her
and
you
know
definitely
she
stepped
up
to
the
plate
to
manage
all
the
personalities,
the
different
perspectives,
to
make
sure
that
we
got
this
report
done
on
time
and
I'll
be
remiss
if
I
didn't
acknowledge
a
person
who
I
worked
for
at
the
philadelphia
old
company
store
so
many
moons
ago,
but
a
person
is
very
passionate
around
addressing
the
issue
of
public
safety.
Most
importantly
gun
violence
here
in
this
philadelphia,
councilman
curtis
jones
give
him
a
round
of
applause,
because.
C
C
It
started
with
100
people
who
have
been
shot
here
in
this
headphone
off
and
I
think
it
expanded
to
over
1
000
people,
2
000
people,
which
really
shows
that,
besides
that,
beyond
the
cameras
beyond
social
media,
right
we're
working
on
this
issue,
24
hours
a
day,
365
days
out
a
year.
Just
because
you
don't
see
us
working
publicly,
doesn't
that
does
not
mean
behind
the
scenes.
C
We
aren't
texting
one
another
calling
one
another
and
doing
this
type
of
hard
work
to
make
sure
we
save
our
young
people,
and
so
for
me,
being
a
part
of
this
collaborative
effort
is
all
about
making
sure
that
we
continue
to
make
sure
that
this
is
the
number
one
issue
here
in
the
city
of
philadelphia,
some
things
that
stuck
out
the
media.
I
want
to
make
sure
that
we
continue
moving
forward.
C
C
Specific
focus
on
those
individuals
who
most
likely
kill
or
be
killed
here
in
the
city
of
philadelphia.
I've
also
had
another
observation
that
in
some
areas
throughout
the
city
of
philadelphia,
we
have
reduced
homicides.
Let
me
say
that
again,
last
year
in
2021,
there
are
some
areas
in
the
city
of
philadelphia.
C
Is
that
we're
not
going
to
get
to
the
bottom
of
this
issue?
If
we
don't
work
together,
the
d.a
has
to
be
talking
with
our
police.
Commissioner
police,
commissioner,
have
to
be
talking
to
our
courts.
The
courts
have
to
be
working
with
probation
and
parole,
paris
and
parole,
happy
working
with
the
office
of
violence
prevention
and,
most
importantly,
we
all
must
be
working
with
the
community.
C
That's
the
only
way
we
can
always
point
fingers
and
say
this:
what
this
person
isn't
doing,
that's
what
that
person
isn't
doing,
but
my
experience
showed
me
that
we
work
collaboratively
together
on
this
issue.
That's
the
only
way
we're
going
to
reduce
the
symptoms,
gun
violence,
that's
taking
place
here
in
the
city
of
philadelphia.
C
Now,
like
I
used
to
stand
on
the
corner,
they
say
if
kenyatta
johnson
changed
his
life,
so
can
I
so
we
get
into
these
silos
about
our
different
perspectives
on
how
we
can
address
this
issue
just
recognize.
On
the
other
end,
the
number
one
individuals
are
dying
day
in
and
day
out
are
black
boys
and,
as
councilman
jamie
gardier,
always
says
it's
a
matter
of
social
justice.
C
I'm
going
to
say
it
again,
it's
a
matter
of
social
justice,
because
the
reality
is,
if
it
wasn't
black
and
brown
boys
dying
on
a
day-to-day
basis,
and
they
were
people
of
another
complexion.
I
have
to
be
quite
up
front
and
say
it.
I
think
the
response
will
be
different.
We
saw
with
the
opioid
crisis
and
people
in
my
neighborhood
getting
hired
for
heroin
for
years.
C
When
it
came
out
into
the
suburbs.
In
rural
america
we
had
a
different
type
of
response.
We
need
to
keep
up
the
pressure
on
this
issue
because
at
the
day
in
and
day
out,
I'm
talking
to
mothers
like
I'll
talk
to
today,
because
they
lost
a
love
on
the
senseless
gun
violence,
and
I
do
this
on
a
regular
without
the
cameras.
Just
because
that's
what
it's
all
about,
so
let
me
get
off
my
soapbox
and
I'm
gonna
turn
it
over
to
council.
C
D
I
say
all
of
their
names
because
it's
important
to
know
that
it's
not
just
falling
upon
the
shoulders
of
the
philadelphia
police
department.
Everyone
recognized
themselves
in
this
project
as
stakeholders
in
addressing
this
issue,
and
I
think
it's
very
important
that
we
publicly
acknowledge
them.
We
remain
focused
on
fighting
the
surge
of
violent
crime
that
continues
to
plague
our
neighbors
and
our
communities.
D
D
D
D
D
Samoa
monet,
isn't
the
only
person
that
was
struck
by
stray
gunfire
over
the
last
few
years.
There
have
been
far
too
many
lives
of
human
beings,
not
statistics,
not
numbers.
Human
beings
are
being
cut
tragically
short
by
gunfire.
A
generation
of
people
are
being
exterminated
by
gunfire
the
majority
of
whom
look.
Like
me,
my
family,
my
sons.
D
D
We
know
this
impact
that
violent
crime
has
on
victims
themselves,
but
what
we
often
don't
see
reflected
in
shooting
victims
and
homicide
counts
are
the
lives
affected
by
this
violence.
Those
who
are
left
to
deal
with
these
impacts.
We
know
what
the
drivers
of
violent
crime
are.
We
know
that
the
drivers
often
involve
drugs
arguments.
We
talked
about
social
media,
domestic
abuse
and
very
often
these
perpetrators
are
in
possession
of
an
illegal
firearm.
D
D
Additionally,
very
very
soon
our
new
non-fatal
shooting
unit
will
begin
operations.
This
unit,
which
will
work
very
closely
with
our
homicide
unit,
was
created
to
centralize
our
efforts.
Our
detectives,
by
investigating
non-fatal
shootings
across
our
city,
analysts,
will
be
assigned
to
work
side
by
side
with
our
investigators
to
develop
information
and
leads
based
on
shared
intelligence
and
data,
we're
also
expanding
our
use
of
dna
analysis
to
solve
crimes.
D
E
I
would
never
suggest
the
commissioner
forgot
her
duty.
I
don't
see
it
that
way
at
all.
I
think
she
does
a
great
job.
First
of
all,
I
could
repeat
all
the
names,
but
I
want
to
respect
everyone's
time.
Every
name
that
was
mentioned,
and
the
commissioner
did
mention
them
all,
because
she's
right,
we
are
all
together.
E
I
don't
want
to
go
through
all
the
names,
but
I
do
want
to
say
that
I
and
I
have
to
say
that
I
am
extremely
grateful
to
my
team
at
the
district
attorney's
office.
For
those
of
you
who
do
not
know
we
have
a
first
ever
in
the
history
of
the
da's
office,
data
lab
grant
funded.
That
does
amazing
work
and
has
done
amazing
work
in
this
report.
This
is
a
great
report.
This
was
a
great
idea,
I
think,
to
to
a
large
extent
the
great
idea
of
council
member
jones
and
council
member
johnson.
E
I
said
it
in
the
middle
of
the
process,
even
though
they
were
working
me
to
death.
I
said
it
in
the
middle
of
the
process,
because
it's
really
true,
it
has
caused
types
of
collaboration
that
I
think
might
not
have
occurred.
Otherwise,
and
this
has
been
a
truly
collaborative
effort
that
has
built
trust
among
the
different
agencies.
It
has
forged
relationships
among
these
different
groups
who
need
to
work
together.
E
I
can
tell
you
there
was
a
snowy
day
not
so
long
ago,
when
my
dad
lab
team
didn't
stop
working
on
finalizing
one
of
the
last
drafts
of
this
report,
and
I
know
because
they
were
driving
me
crazy
all
day,
and
I
was
on
the
phone
talking
to
some
of
the
other
people
who
are
up
here
modifying
little
bits
here.
Little
bits
there
and
I
think
the
product
that
has
come
of
it
is
outstanding.
E
It
is
important,
it
is
an
almost
unique
example
of
uniting
a
public
health
perspective
with
the
perspectives
of
law
enforcement
from
all
their
different
duties.
Now,
having
said
that,
as
these
silos
started
to
break
down
and
are
breaking
down
even
further
and
there's
nothing
unusual
about
silos
and
government,
that's
just
real,
but
as
that
has
happened,
I
think
it
doesn't
just
suggest
that
we
got
a
great
report
to
leave
on
the
table.
I
think
what
it
suggests
is
that
we
now
need
to
continue
this
effort.
E
We
need
to
continue
it
with
action,
so
I
will
just
give
you
a
little
hint
as
to
where
some
of
this
action,
I
think,
might
come.
I
mentioned
earlier.
The
concept
of
57
blocks
a
phrase
that
the
philadelphia
inquirer
came
up
with
in
some
some
outstanding
journalism.
They
did
about
the
locations
in
philly,
where
there
have
been
just
a
ton
of
shootings
and
killings
with
guns
over
a
period
of
time.
There's
a
lot
of
wisdom
in
looking
at
those
places
and
there's
a
lot
of
wisdom
in
all
of
our
coming
together
to
address
those
places.
E
This
city
was
pretty
good
at
taking
resources
out
of
those
places,
destabilizing
them
and
getting
them
to
the
point
where
we
have
so
much
harm.
We
should
all
be
pretty
good
at
putting
resources
back
in
and
none
none
of
those
resources
will
be
more
important,
that
than
resources
that
are
directed
at
trauma
that
are
directed
at
victims
that
are
directed
at
protecting
witnesses.
E
None
of
them
will
be
more
important
than
that.
None
will
be
more
important
than
directing
resources
at
the
kid
who
looks
out
the
window,
who
sees
the
blood
in
the
street
after
something
terrible
happens,
because
that
is
trauma,
and
it's
not
just
trauma
for
the
person
hit
with
the
bullet
or
the
family
of
that
person.
It
is
trauma
everywhere,
close
to
that
location
in
every
one
of
those
57
blocks.
E
So
I
look
forward
to
the
opportunity
to
work
with
all
of
these
partners
all
these
collaborators,
all
these
friends
up
here
on
how
we
can
bring
some
resources
to
that,
and
do
something
about
that.
I
love
this
report.
I
hope
all
you
get
a
chance
to
actually
read
it.
I
think
it
actually
exists
in
so
many
different
important
dimensions.
It
even
exists
in
the
dimension
of
turning
discussions
around
criminal
justice
into
something
that
is
scientific
in
the
way
that
medicine
is
scientific.
E
In
the
way
that
we
have
taken
for
granted,
I
have
to
give
a
lot
of
credit
to
the
philadelphia
police
department.
I
always
do,
but
let
me
give
some
more
now
for
having
such
outstanding
data
analysts
for
doing
such
outstanding
criminological
work
and
for
being
willing
to
collaborate
so
closely
with
our
data
lab
to
see
what
it
is.
We
can
all
do
better
and,
yes,
I
know
the
da's
office
can
do
better.
E
I
know
we
can
all
do
better
and
I
want
to
support
all
of
my
partners
up
here
any
way
I
can
in
that
collaboration.
So
I
hope
you
really
will
read
it
and
don't
just
read
the
text
read
the
tables.
Read
the
graphs.
Look
at
all
the
color
pictures.
Look
at
it
all,
because
there
is
a
lot
that
is
in
there
and
it
is
a
lot
that
points
forward
in
the
right
direction
at
this
time.
E
It
is
my
pleasure
and
my
honor
to
introduce
our
new
public
defender,
and
I
see
we
have
a
prior
public
defender
cure,
bradford
gray,
with
whom
I
really
enjoyed
an
outstanding
connection
and
relationship.
While
we
were
both
in
our
positions,
but
we
are
also
blessed
to
have
the
very
wonderful
kisha
hudson
who
is
here
after
a
very
long
and
distinguished
career
in
many
different
ways
in
criminal
justice,
public
defender
hudson.
Thank
you.
F
I
have
only
been
in
the
role
for
a
grand
total
of
seven
weeks,
so
I'm
thrilled
to
see
that
my
predecessor,
ciara
bradford
gray,
is
here
and
just
want
to
extend
my
thanks
to
her
for
her
leadership
in
getting
us
involved
at
the
invitation
of
council
member
jones,
because
we
are
a
critical
stakeholder
in
this
conversation
in
terms
of
where
we
go
forward
in
addressing
this
crisis,
I
also
want
to
give
a
shout
out
to
our
policy
team
that
worked
incredibly
incredibly
hard
to
provide
critical
data.
F
F
F
The
reality
is
yesterday's
victim
of
a
violent
crime
is
too
often
the
defendant
that
walks,
through
our
doors
tomorrow,
a
frequent
overlap
between
people
who
participate
in
community
violence
and
those
most
often
victimize
council
member
johnson,
discussed
this
in
his
remarks.
But
we
have
specific
data
point
here
that
I
think
is
really
critical
to
share
82
percent
of
the
clients
we
represent
with
pending
first
degree,
felony
chartered
charges
had
been
the
victim
of
or
witness
to
violent
crime
before
they
turned
18
82
of
our
clients.
F
We
may
not
agree
on
each
other's
recommendations
or
all
of
the
recommendations,
but
we
agree
that
the
solutions
should
be
guided
by
what
the
data
tells
us
about
gun
violence
and
to
reiterate
what
many
of
us
have
already
said
here
today,
collaboration
is
key
and
the
defender
is
committed
to
a
robust
participation
in
this
process.
F
Even
all
the
knowledge,
experiences
and
resources
assembled
here
today,
though,
are
not
enough.
We
as
a
justice
system
also
need
to
actively
partner
with
the
community
organizations
working
in
the
affected
neighborhoods
and
fighting
every
day
to
put
an
end
to
gun
violence,
as
we
continue
to
collaborate.
These
advocates
also
must
be
at
the
table
with
us
moving
forward.
F
We
also
need
significant
financial
investment
in
community-led
non-government
solutions
that
prioritize
culturally
competent
trauma-informed
interventions,
long-term
social
supports
and
workforce
development
in
these
communities,
most
impacted
by
gun
violence.
The
justice
system
naturally
plays
a
role,
but
that
role
should
be
in
support
of
the
leadership
role
played
by
our
community
partners
and
activists.
F
I
want
to
close
by
extending
yet
another
round
of
thanks
to
council
member
jones
for
inviting
us
to
participate
in
this
process,
and
we
are
looking
forward
to
working
with
everyone
here
and
community
leaders
and
activists
and
organizations
to
put
many
of
these
recommendations
into
reality.
Thank
you
and
I
will
introduce
vanessa
garrett
hartley
the
managing
director's
office.
Thank
you.
G
We
are
here
because
we
recognize
that
there
is
no
greater
problem
plaguing
the
city
of
philadelphia
than
the
gun,
violence
that
we
have
all
been
experiencing
this
report
and
this
collaboration
is
crucial
because
just
as
everyone
else
has
said,
but
I
can't
emphasize
it
enough,
we
have
to
come
together,
there's
no
one
entity
that
is
part
of
this
criminal
justice
system
that
could
solve
this
problem
alone.
Key
in
this
is
the
community.
We
don't
want
to
leave
out
our
community
members.
G
There's
some
real
content
experts
from
all
of
these
different
agencies
and
departments
that
you
see
up
here,
who
have
put
in
countless
hours,
both
working
on
this
report
and
just
coming
together
talking
and
trying
to
come
up
with
solutions
to
our
gun,
violence
problem
that
we
see
here
a
special
thank
you
to
councilman
jones
and
also
councilman
kenyatta
johnson,
both
of
whom
have
been
helping
us
working
with
us
and,
I
know,
take
to
heart
and
feel
much
like.
I
do
about
the
importance
of
this
gun
violence
problem.
G
I
believe
that
our
police
department,
the
da's
office,
the
controller's
office,
our
health
department,
our
first
judicial
district,
our
probation
officers,
everybody
understands
that
this
has
got
to
be
a
number
one
priority
for
the
city
and
it's
the
only
way
that
we're
going
to
be
able
to
solve
it.
This
report
highlights
that
collaboration
does
work
and
that
we
can
come
together
and
we
can
work
together.
The
report
also
highlights
and
makes
a
number
of
recommendations
with
whom
we
agree.
In
fact,
we
agree
so
much.
G
We
have
already
been
instituting
a
number
of
the
recommendations
that
are
in
place,
and
that
includes
some
of
the
programs
that
we
have
put
in
place
in
terms
of
like
place
and
and
person-based
strategies
such
as
our
gun
violence,
intervention
program,
as
well
as
the
community
piece.
I
can't
emphasize
enough
with
the
help
of
city
council
we've
been
able
to
give
out
these
community
grants.
G
I
think
up
here
in
this
room
or
in
this
city
that
look
like
me
that
don't
know
somebody
who
has
been
touched
by
this
gun
violence,
whether
it's
your
friend,
your
neighbor,
your
family.
Your
church,
member
whatever
so
this
is
real
and
we
take
it
to
heart.
It
means
a
whole
lot
to
many
of
us,
and
I
know
most
of
the
folks
up
here
are
just
as
passionate
as
I
am
about
it.
So
I
thank
you
for
allowing
us
to
participate
in
this.
The
managing
director's
office
will
continue
to
participate.
G
The
mayor
has
pledged
that
this
is
a
number
one.
Priority
in
the
city
is
difficult.
We
have
limited
resources.
We
are
affected
by
what
some
would
call
a
trifecta
almost
with
the
pandemic,
and
then
the
gun,
violence
that
we're
experiencing,
as
well
as
all
of
the
impacts
from
the
pandemic,
has
had
on
our
economic
situation
and
our
in
our
staffing
shortages.
But
again
we
will
do
everything
it
takes
to
continue
to
try
to
address
this
problem.
Thank
you.
A
I
want
to
acknowledge
my
state
partner,
who
is
here,
senator
vincent
hughes
and
he's
not
just
here
to
applaud
he
and
the
governor
and
other
members
of
the
delegation
are
bringing
15
million
dollars
to
deal
with
grants.
A
A
A
I
need
someone
to
intervene,
whether
it's
troubles
at
home,
whether
it's
troubles
in
the
community,
they
were
in
school,
acting
out,
saying,
hey,
I
need
some
help
and
we
ignored
them.
We
have
to
have
better
listening
skills
and
red
flags
that
kind
of
indicate
that
we
need
to
intervene
before
they
ever
ever.
Get
into
trouble.
A
A
G
So
so
I
think
he's
referring
to
a
dashboard
where
we
want
to
be
able
to
put
out
statistics
about
all
the
information.
But
if
I
were
answering
your
question,
there
is
a
violence
hotline
that
we
hope
to
launch
in
march.
Thanks
to
council
president
clark,
who
has
very
much
helped
to
spearhead
this
working
with
us,
where
people
can
call
with
those
very
kind
of
questions
that
you
have
as
to
where
our
resources,
potentially
those
resources
and
other
things,
can
go.
G
There
are
also
programs
that
come
not
necessarily
under
all
of
the
agencies
that
are
up
here,
but
even
under
our
department
of
human
services,
where
juvenile
justice
rests
in
this
city.
There
are
a
multitude
of
prevention
programs
and
other
things
that
may
be
eligible,
as
well
as
some
of
the
what
others
will
call
out-of-school
time,
programs
that
are
programs
that
may
be
centered
off
of
some
of
the
education
or
academic
programs.
To
give
you,
I
understand.
G
I
totally
understand
I
do
understand
and
share
that
sentiment,
and
I
think
we
all
want
our
children
to
feel
safe
in
all
aspects.
We
all
want
to
feel
safe
as
we
move
around
the
city
as
well,
but
I
assure
you
that
we're
doing
everything
we
know
how
to
do
to
try
to
develop
that
level
of
safety
and
comfort
and
where
we're
moving-
and
I
think
this
is
the
beginning
of
work
that
was
already
being
done.
A
My
majority
leader
reminded
me
that
she
is,
and
we
are
working
towards
a
book
resource
guide
too
by
councilmanic
district
to
be
able
to
say
if
I
live
in
west
philly
here
are
the
things
that
are
available
to
my
child.
Here
are
the
intervention
programs
that
are
run
in
my
area.
That's
what
we
are
working
towards,
so
that
you
know
there's
a
chess
club
over
at
so-and-so
and
one
of
the
things
that
senator
hughes
is
helping
me
to
do
this.
A
Maybe
I
shouldn't
tell
my
other
colleagues,
but
we
want
a
boys
and
girls
club
and
why
we
want
that
boys
and
we're
getting
one
right
why
we
want
that
is
because
they
provide
transportation
to
and
from
safely
to
programs,
and
that
is
so
important
and
we
are
looking
at
every
department
through
a
different
lens
to
say
how
can
we
keep
our
babies
safe
and
whether
it's
scepter
and
providing
boots
on
the
ground
police
officers
on
those
elves,
so
that
your
your
daughter
can
look
up
and
see
a
uniform
and
feel
safer?
H
A
A
Means
you
right
so
that's
enough
votes
to
make
sure
that
every
one
of
these
recommendations
that
are
in
this
book
wind
up
in
someone's
budget,
so
that
we're
not
just
talking
about
forensic
expansion
of
their
lab,
that
we
find
money
for
and
that
we're
committed
to
giving
you
the
tools.
I
was
in
your
meeting
as
well
yesterday,
where
a
simple
thing
like
providing
hundreds
of
cell
phones
to
homicide
officers.
You
would
think
in
the
city
like
ours
that
that
was
a
given.
A
The
young
people
out.
There
are
running
rings
around
us
technologically
and
we're
just
now
giving
them
cell
phones.
So
this
is
something
that
we're
playing
catch-up
quite
frankly
to
try
to
to
to
make
our
city
safe
and
we're
not
going
to
stop.
I
already
cashed,
senator
hughes
15
million
to
put
it
towards
it.
So
we
can
talk
about
that.
A
So
so
so
some
of
this
is
already
happening
like
they
didn't
wait
for
us
to
finish
this
report
to
start
collaborating,
that's
the
beauty
of
what
I
found
out
and
that
what
we
will
continue
to
do
is
we're
not
going
to
just
point
the
finger
and
say
well:
do
it
without
straw
for
your
bricks?
No,
if
you
need
a
new
lab,
let's
find
the
money
for
it,
and
so
we
want
to
be
partners
in
this
regard.
A
So
it's
already
started
and
it
will
continue
during
the
budget
process,
and
we
have
our
senator
here,
who
is
real
close
with
the
governor
right
yeah
come
on
come
on.
I
Let
me
do
this:
the
city
of
philadelphia
is
paying
the
costs
for
state
gun
laws
that
don't
work.
I'ma
say
it
again.
The
city
of
philadelphia
is
paying
the
cost
for
state
gun
laws
that
are
not
relevant
to
the
reality
that
exists
in
philadelphia
and
for,
in
fact,
for
most
communities
all
across
the
state
of
pennsylvania.
I
So
last
week
we
were
together.
Number
of
us
were
together.
We
announced
a
50
increase
in
violence
prevention
funds
from
the
state
of
pennsylvania,
so
we
took
it
from
30
to
45
million
dollars,
that's
to
go
out
to
to
neighborhood-based
violence
prevention
organizations.
I
Now.
Why
do
I
say
that
it's
the
next
step,
because
it's
an
action
step?
Everything
that's
in
this
report
is
either
being
done
or
honest
way
to
be
done,
but
the
state
has
a
responsibility
and
this
is
the
charge
and
I'm
sorry
councilman
no
go
ahead,
but
you
I
wasn't
planning,
but
you
got
me
going.
Okay,
all
right!
You
got
me
going.
I
And
kim
knows
where
I'm
going
with
this
there's
eight
billion
dollars
of
unspent
money
in
harrisburg
pennsylvania,
designed
by
partly
by
president
biden
and
vice
president
harris
to
come
to
the
states
and
come
to
local
communities
to
help
deal
with
the
health
and
the
problems
that
they're
confronting
it's
sitting
there
sitting
there
on
monday
park,
you
were
in
harrisburg.
On
monday,
the
state
will
report
that
is
running
300
million
dollars
above
estimate
for
the
state's
budget
surplus.
I
That
money
deserves
to
be
in
communities
and
neighborhoods
to
investing
in
these
neighborhood-based
organizations
to
give
the
commissioner
what
she
needs
to
give
the
d.a
what
he
needs
to
give
the
public
defenders.
Finally,
as
the
only
state
in
the
nation
that
does
not
have
state
dedicated
funding
for
the
public
defenders
to
give
the
money
that
they
deserve,.
I
So
the
charge
is
this
really
after
we
leave
here.
This
is
the
charge:
go
to
harrisburg,
go
to
the
senators
and
representatives
who
are
not
from
philadelphia
not
from
philadelphia
go
to
the
other
ones,
who,
quite
frankly,
are
seeing
dramatic
increases
in
violent
crime
in
their
communities
and,
in
fact,
according
to
fbi
statistics,
those
numbers,
those
increases
are
higher
than
the
city
of
philadelphia.
I
I
always
talk
about
the
city.
I
always
talk
about
you,
but
the
increases
in
communities
all
across
pennsylvania,
bradford,
clarion,
all,
the
rest
of
them,
green,
all
the
rest
of
them
where
there
aren't
no
black
people,
you
hear
what
I'm
saying
with
their
own
communities,
mostly
white
or
catching
hell,
but
they
they
ignore
their
own
people,
go
to
them
demand
and
increase
demand
that
law
enforcement
gets.
What
is
deserved
because
I
know,
under
these
two
people,
all
right
we're
going
to
get
some
justice
in
their
law
enforcement
process.
I
All
right
give
the
councilman
and
all
the
council,
people
and
everybody
all
these
communities,
the
resources
that
they're
demanding
that's
the
charge.
This
is
damn
good
work.
This
is
damn
good
work.
It's
time
we
invest
in
it.
Don't
just
sit
around
and
and
and
other
folks
across
pennsylvania
blame
the
city
for
what
is
going
through
with
the
with
the
largest
economic
driver
in
the
commonwealth
of
pennsylvania.
Invest
in
this
driving
force,
you
send
your
children
to
our
universities.
I
You
send
out
your
children
to
our
hospitals
and
our
health
care
institutions
looking
for
help,
invest
in
them,
invest
in
this
community
the
charge
for
everyone
here.
It's
a
state
to
the
state
of
pennsylvania,
put
up
if
you're
going
to
give
us
gun
laws
that
just
unleash
violence
all
across
our
community.
It's
damn
short
time.
You
put
the
money
to
protect
the
neighborhoods
and
the
citizens
who
are
not
just
living
in
that
hell,
but
driving
the
economy
in
the
commonwealth
of
pennsylvania.
A
A
That
is
a
good
question.
We
did
invite
kevin
bethel
who
deals
with.
He
was
okay,
he
was
in
the
audience
he
had
to
go,
but
they
are
critical
partners
in
this
one
of
the
follow-up
things
that
we
are
going
to
do.
I
was
talking
to
remember
kim
earlier,
and
my
colleagues
as
well
is
that
we
do
in
west
philly
a
weekly
monday
morning,
roll
call
and
what
that
is,
is
all
of
the
schools.
A
The
principals,
in
particular
the
at-risk
high
intense
acts
of
violence
in
those
schools,
are
on
this
call
and
we
review
what
happened
this
week,
who
was
fighting
who
and
what
we
found
out.
That
was
not
in
this
report,
but
we
all
had
plenty
of
appendixes
and
amendments
that
most
of
those
principles
don't
know
what
is
available
to
them
to
help
those
students,
that's
half
the
battle
and
so
at
overbrook
my
principles
putting
out
fires
running
around
keeping
people
safe.
A
But
when
the
kid
comes
in
there,
her
office
with
two
book
bags
yeah,
but
I'm
getting
abused
at
home
and
I'm
feeling
some
kind
of
way
and
I'm
I
may
act
out
knowing
where
she
can
get
help
for
that
child
is
critical.
What
was
in
this
report
is
that
many
of
those
kids
had
touch
points
with
the
system.
Well,
before
saying
hey,
I
need
help
so
you're
right.
The
school
district
has
to
be
partners
within
this,
and
we,
some
of
these
things
have
happened
in
spite
of,
and
because
of
this
report,.
A
A
A
I
have
faith
that
we
are
because
of
this
report
going
to
collaborate
at
a
level
yet
unseen
and
yes,
you're
right.
Some
of
these
things
have
happened,
should
have
happened
but
for
sure
we're
putting
the
spotlight
of
the
report
on
those
issues
so
that
they
will
happen
coming
in
this
new
year
to
come.
So
if
they
don't
we'll
be
right
back
here
but
budget
time,
and
I'm
I'm
scared
that
the
senator
won't
bring
another
15
million
to
continue
this.
