Good morning, Council President. Good morning, colleagues. I first want to take a moment to thank Councilmember Phillips as well as Senator Saval, along with the staff of Councilmember Gauthier, Councilmember Brooks, as well as Senator Street for attending yesterday's debrief as it relates to educators across the City of Philadelphia. Yesterday we were able to convene at an amazing facility, which is the CCP, Community College of Philadelphia, campus at West Philadelphia, and anybody who has not been there, I highly recommend you visit that facility to see the great work that we're doing. STATED MEETING 77 1/26/2023 to have an amazing conversation yesterday where we were able to listen to educators and administrators from all across the City to talk to us about some of the issues that they're facing and some of the things that we can do to support them and make their experience as well as the experience of our children a little bit better. So I look forward to continuing the good work as it relates to partnering with our educators in our schools, and I look forward to our Committee of the Whole conversation that's going to be coming January 31st where we will be able to have a collective dialogue around the state of our schools as well as what we need to do moving forward. There's no surprise to at least this legislative body and those across the City of Philadelphia that knows me that I'm a big sports fan. I love sports, from elementary school age all STATED MEETING 78 1/26/2023 athletes, and for those who don't know, there's a huge game this weekend where Imhotep, which is a Philadelphia-based school, will play against Camden, which is clearly in the City of Camden. Myself as well as Councilmember Gilmore Richardson, you, Council President, as well as Councilmember Jones went over to visit Camden to be able to talk about some of the things that we could collaborate on and some of the things that we could look at as it relates to some of the crime that we have in the City of Philadelphia. And clearly I have a bias. I consider Camden a great partner, but unfortunately this weekend we're not going to be partners. So I want to take a moment to challenge the Mayor of Camden as well as the Camden City Council to a friendly wager. Of course here in Philadelphia we're betting on Imhotep, which is the No. 16 in the entire country. Camden is STATED MEETING 79 1/26/2023 11 team in the entire country. Imhotep's best player just recently took over as the No. 1 player in the entire country, and Camden's best player is now the No. 2 player in the entire country. So we can clearly see that we have a lot of talent in the tri-state area. In Philadelphia alone, we have three teams that are ranked in the top 25 as it relates to boys basketball. And so I challenge Camden and the City of Camden to a friendly bet to a nice meal as well as a donation to their favorite non-profit organization based on the winner of Saturday's outcome. If you don't know, St. Joe's University is already sold out, and we anticipate it being a great day in high school sports. We haven't seen anything like this in over a couple dozen years, and so we anticipate it being an amazing day. Outside of that, another important thing that we have to consider STATED MEETING 80 1/26/2023 name, image, and likeness of all these student athletes. I introduced the NIL protection bill in our last Council session, and we're still working diligently with the private sector as well as other stakeholders to make sure that when we consider things like the tri-state area having four teams in the top 25, that we're understanding how sports and athletics are changing, and we're doing everything in our power to protect the most vulnerable. Thank you, Council President.
Thank you, colleagues, and hopefully the City of Camden accepts our friendly wager.
All right. Thank you. Thank you, Councilman. Looking forward to that one. The Chair recognizes Councilman Jones.
Thank you, Mr. President. I want to acknowledge the work STATED MEETING 81 1/26/2023 members of Council, in particular Councilmember Johnson, on pulling together a mayoral forum last week that focused on gun violence, prevention of crime, and narrowly tailored the questions to the prospective 100th mayor to say what are you going to do about it. Everybody knows the problems. They're chronicled, but the solutions needed to be heard by the audience. I want to thank the stakeholders who put together really good questions, insightful questions, to create that kind of dialogue, and, finally, the audience which was standing-room only, like the fire marshal had to keep people out. So the interest in the topic was there, but what was noticeable to me was that they were so quiet. There wasn't a bunch of cheering. There wasn't a bunch of booing. What there was was a lot of listening, and people want to hear STATED MEETING 82 1/26/2023 to that end, one of the things we do is we pass laws, we pass resolutions, we have hearings about the topic of gun violence, the topic of crime. But what we also must do, and particularly during the time of budget, is go back to examine our work to see how it's working. Four topics that I'll be looking to departments to get a sense of is, number one, we passed the bill for red flag laws, common sense gun law that says that if someone states that they are going to be a threat to you, themselves, and others, that we have the right to confiscate firearms in their possession until there is a hearing to determine their aptitude, attitude about owning a gun. We know domestic violence, usually people say what they're going to do. Sometimes we need to believe them. So we want to check with Police and the STATED MEETING 83 1/26/2023 if those laws are working. Second follow-up is, we passed a bill on lost and stolen guns. That's common sense gun laws that this body took the step to procure the law, and now it's possibly hung up in state court. We need to revisit that to make sure that they understand that, you know, this isn't academic. Our lives depend on these issues. The third component of following up to public safety is some of these games of chance that are in a lot of those stores, corner stores, that are a bait for crime, that there are people that stalk these stores where these games of chance are and when Mrs. Smith hits the number, they know, they make a call, they tell what they may have on, and they have been victims of crime. We need to again get a ruling from the Pennsylvania courts to say do we have the right to license these people? STATED MEETING 84 1/26/2023 right to even know where the machines are placed? Do we have the right to tax them and to make sure that they are responsible, responsible neighbors in our community? So these are things that we need to focus on. And, finally, we did a hearing on disinvestment of our city tax dollars to any business that invests in firearms. We should not, we cannot allow for the business of violence to be conducted and in fact supported by our tax dollars. So these four things, follow-ups that we took initiative on, took action on, we want to make sure that if there is a law and no one enforces it, is there really a law? So thank you, Mr. President.
Thank you. Thank you, Councilman, and thank you for your all's continued good work. The Chair recognizes STATED MEETING 85 1/26/2023
Thank you, Council President, and good afternoon, everyone. Last week, Majority Leader Jones and I introduced a bill proposing an extension of the Mixed-Income Neighborhoods Overlay and TOD Overlay across a stretch of West Market Street that he and I share. We are taking this step to be proactive about ensuring that affordable housing will continue to exist along this vital transit-oriented corridor for decades to come. I am also pleased to report that within the existing Mixed-Income Neighborhoods Overlay, there are currently permits in process that will create 325 new housing units. These permits range from projects as small as ten units, MIN's floor, and as high as 150 units. And because of MIN, these permits will generate 65 new affordable units, 42 in the Third District and 23 in STATED MEETING 86 1/26/2023 means that within the first few months of its existence, the Mixed-Income Neighborhoods Overlay will generate more genuinely affordable units than in the first three years of the optional mixed-income housing section of the Code citywide. I hope that this shows that this overlay does not halt development. Because some have challenged the legitimacy of MIN by demanding that it generate new homes within an unrealistically short timeframe, I urge these skeptics to also measure the impact of traditional market-rate real estate development on our neighborhoods. So let's pause and do that for a moment. Before MIN, rents in West Philadelphia surged by 200 to 300 percent, even as hundreds of units came online inside the overlay's boundaries every year, almost none of them affordable. At the same time, gentrification and skyrocketing costs STATED MEETING 87 1/26/2023 Black population east of 52nd Street out of the Third District. And many developers prioritize milking as much profit out of our neighborhoods as possible at the expense of working-class Black and brown residents whose families called West Philly home for generations. These are outcomes that also deserve to be scrutinized, and when they are, it becomes clear that the status quo was endangering the vitality of our neighborhoods. I created MIN as a pathway to ensure the market worked alongside rather than against our community, and today we're showing that MIN is doing just that. Because even after the reduction of the citywide tax abatement and rising construction costs and inflation, the real estate process inside the overlay continues. Ultimately we must give the Mixed-Income Neighborhoods Overlay time to work, but signs point in the right STATED MEETING 88 1/26/2023 direction, and I could not be more excited. Even though 65 affordable homes and 260 market-rate ones barely scratch the surface of the City's need, it's a welcome sign that the overlay will generate deeply affordable homes in some of West and Southwest's most high-amenity neighborhoods and debunks the claim that no development is happening inside the overlay. Engaging in unfair, biased scrutiny of a policy that has been in effect for six months will do nothing to end our housing affordability crisis. What will is bold action. What will is partnership. What will is a commitment that all Philadelphians deserve a high-quality place to live in a neighborhood of opportunity. I look forward to working with my colleagues, the community, and all willing stakeholders to do just that. Thank you. STATED MEETING 89 1/26/2023
Thank you, Councilwoman. The Chair recognizes Councilman Phillips.
Thank you, Council President. This week has been a wonderful week for me, because I had an opportunity to spend a lot of time in our district learning about important issues that are really vital to the preservation of the quality of life of the Ninth District. Last week I said to all of us here today that I vow to be a Councilmember that will not only be a person that will work to press forth issues in the community that we believe are important but, most importantly, I'm a Councilmember who will always listen and always vow to make sure that we do what our neighbors are asking us to do in terms of service. One of the models that I have, and I've learned this -- I'm a student of STATED MEETING 90 1/26/2023 model that I try to lead by, Council President, also colleagues, in all the work that I do. In South Kenya they ask this question every single day among -- as a greeting. It is: How are the children? It is a greeting that is vital to the state of that region, only because when they ask that particular question, they're asking that question because they want to ask everyone that they greet with that question instead of saying hello, what's up, how is your day, they want to know what did you do today for the state of our children. When I decided that I wanted to be in this role of City Council, I had no other individual, no other population, no other agenda in mind but what are we doing for our children, because we can't talk about our future unless we are working towards improving our future. When I was in youth development as an educator helping young people to go STATED MEETING 91 1/26/2023 careers after high school, as well as a teacher and also helping them become civically engaged, I worked 24/7 to make sure our young people were at an excellent state. You can ask anybody around the City of Philadelphia who knows me. They know that it's true. I now work 24/7 for our community, our entire community in the Ninth District, because at the end of the day, when our community thrives, our children thrive. So I say to you today, I would like for us as a collective body in 2023 to continue with that mindset of like what are we doing for our children. I will not only ask that question to us, I will continue to ask that question to residents in our neighborhoods. I will ask that question to our staff. What have we done each day for our children by asking the question how are the children. This week alone, I found out about -- learned even more about -- not STATED MEETING 92 1/26/2023 about, knew about these issues. I learned even more about issues that were impacting our community and our children. Number one, our social workers. This is why we introduced this resolution. Our social workers who are working every single day for our children are suffering. They have high caseloads. They have low salaries, and the Administration is having a hard time finding social workers. We're having a hard time -- yesterday I was at an amazing session with Councilmember Isaiah Thomas who led this Education Committee working session in West Philadelphia, and one of the things that we found out from the teachers there is that our children need social workers in our schools. We're also learning that our children need social workers every day, but there's a lack of social workers that are protecting their mental health. What are we doing every day to STATED MEETING 93 1/26/2023 increasing the population of social workers and making sure that they have good salaries so they can work for our children? The second thing that we're also learning is that our schools need high-quality programs and non-profits and organizations and mentorship.
We talk about a village, but one of the things I have to emphasize is that I know that there's some Councilmembers, including Councilmember Thomas and among many others, who have visited schools throughout their district or throughout the City of Philadelphia. I implore, I ask that all of us do a better job with increasing our presence in our schools, because our presence alone is enough to be a village for our children as our colleagues. And then, lastly, I think it's also really important that we think about our City workers. Many of us, we work around here every single day. I went to STATED MEETING 94 1/26/2023 local the other day and I actually found something out that I knew but it became more apparent for me. There are poor working conditions. There's poor salaries for a lot of our City workers, and they are taking care of our children. They can't even get the homes that they need to take care of our children. And then SEPTA this week, many people don't know, 26 routes are being up for consideration of being cut through the SEPTA Bus Revolution. We have to think about how that impacts our seniors, our disabled and, most importantly, our children, because their safety is really important. So I say this to you today as we think about bills and resolutions for next week and the weeks to come, let's always have our children in mind. I know sometimes we get bogged down with a lot of different issues that are coming across our desks, but I think it's STATED MEETING 95 1/26/2023 do, we do it for the sake of our children. And I want you to know that I'm thankful that people have reached out to me, people have contacted me, and I continue to go out to the residents, including recently I went to Samuel Fels High School, and I just got to say, they got this beautiful shirt right here last week in Northeast Philadelphia. And I learned a lot about their need for apprenticeship programs and support, which I also read recently that Councilwoman Kathy Gilmore Richardson and Councilman Isaiah Thomas went to Strawberry Mansion High School, along with you, Councilman Clarke, to really support apprenticeship programs for our children. So I want our city to know that there are our colleagues, there are City Councilmembers who are doing work for our children, but I know when things get tough and we get bogged down, let's keep STATED MEETING 96 1/26/2023 question, how are the children, in mind in everything that we do and make sure that we are always focusing on the issues 24/7 to really fix all these issues that are really impacting the City of Philadelphia. Thank you, Council President.
Thank you so much, Councilman. Thank you. The Chair recognizes Councilman Harrity.
Council President, I'd just like to reiterate what my colleague Councilman Phillips has said. I actually do get up every morning and ask myself what can I get for the kids of Philadelphia today. The problem is, the kids in my neighborhood in Philadelphia are not getting an honest shake. Last week I had two kids shot at the top of my street, over 60 rounds fired. Last night I got home to a kid STATED MEETING 97 1/26/2023 the corner store as he was coming out. I don't know whether it was intended or whether he was just an innocent bystander coming out of a store. While everybody in this room is affected by gun violence, I really live with it on a daily basis. It's in my mind every day. And, you know, the people being shot in my neighborhood are kids, and even worse, they're being shot by other kids. This is unacceptable. And, you know, I was glad that Councilman Phillips is putting that into everybody's head. I think we should absolutely come in here every day and say what can we do to make the children of Philadelphia's life just a little bit better. They're not asking for much. They just need to feel safe. And I feel it. I don't feel safe. I don't feel safe right now in Philadelphia, in my neighborhood, in countless other neighborhoods. We need to get a handle STATED MEETING 98 1/26/2023 this, and I'm just asking all my colleagues to think of what Councilman Phillips just said and let's think about the kids every day and see what we can do to make their lives better, because as we heard earlier, they are our future, and we need to give them a future. So I just ask that everybody think about that a little bit. And thank you, Council President, for letting me speak.
Thank you. Thank you, Councilman. It's on our minds every day all day. The Chair recognizes Councilwoman Vaughn.
Thank you, Mr. President. No one has to tell me or any Philadelphian how important this city is to the fabric of our nation's history, nor question the pride we have as residents of the birthplace of democracy. This resolution that I STATED MEETING 99 1/26/2023 importance of that pride and historical significance and conveys how adherent the Union League's decision, despite our opposition from over 100 of its members, is to honor a man who has disregarded and disrespected so much about what makes us who we are as Americans. Governor Ron DeSantis received the Union League's Gold Medal, an award first given to President Abraham Lincoln, juxtapose the actions of a President whose landmark actions led to the emancipation of hundreds and thousands of enslaved African Americans across the country with those of a prospective presidential candidate of the same party who views education about the Black experience as unconstitutional. Now, consider the deeds of the so-called patriot who inhibits the ability of children to learn how to be productive members of society while their unique selves by banning books from STATED MEETING 100 1/26/2023 stroking fear of being true to yourself via such policies as "don't say gay." Consider the needs of a man who refuses to uphold the sanctity of democracy by supporting the big lie and arresting formerly incarcerated individuals who wish to reenter and contribute to society by exercising their civic duty. Holding public office is an honor and a privilege that should be reserved for those who truly have the best interest of people at heart and want to promote equitable change, those who embody the meaning of service in every way. It should not be taken for granted or abused by elitists or the wealthiest Americans simply looking for something to do with their spare time. In other words, having money does not make you fit to run for public office. The Union League's decision to STATED MEETING 101 1/26/2023 honor to this type of person flies in the face of everything we strive to protect, everything that makes us Americans. That's why I am proud to co-sponsor this resolution with my colleague Councilmember Kenyatta Johnson and all other members that signed on condemning an organization as well as all those who support it that claims to uphold our democratic ideals, yet has exalted someone who has undermined those ideals and singled out marginalized groups time and time again. I call on anyone who values our democracy, who holds a Union League membership, has held events or socialized there frequently to cut all ties with them immediately. Let's be crystal clear. This is not how we unify our people but is exactly how one sows further discord, and the Union League should be ashamed to be a part of that. STATED MEETING 102 1/26/2023 (Applause.)
Thank you, Councilwoman. So true. That concludes our speeches today on behalf of the minority and the majority, and with that, the Chair recognizes Councilman Squilla for a motion to adjourn.
Thank you, Mr. President. I move that Council stand adjourned until Thursday -
Is this button working, because nothing is registering. We have a little technology issue. We'll figure it out. The Chair recognizes Councilman Driscoll. STATED MEETING 103 1/26/2023
Thank you, Mr. President. Today Councilmember Harrity, myself, and our co-sponsors introduced a resolution calling upon the Pennsylvania General Assembly to allow Cities and Counties of the First Class to set their own minimum wages. As a former member of the Pennsylvania House of Representatives, there are few things that are more diverse in needs than the minimum wage across our Commonwealth. While all Pennsylvanians feel the burden of inflation, those in our Commonwealth's economic engine simply must pay more to reside here than in many other communities. According to the MIT Living Wage Calculator, two roommates working full time trying to live in Philadelphia must each earn roughly 11.8 percent more than if they resided in Mifflin County, based on their 2019 analysis. While even Mifflin County, one STATED MEETING 104 1/26/2023 of living counties in our Commonwealth, is still not properly served by our current federal minimum wage, the issue is particularly acute in our city. Once again, Mr. President, we call upon the Pennsylvania General Assembly to do what 55 cities and counties have done across the nation and allow cities and counties to enact their own minimum wage laws. Fourteen years is far too long. And on another matter, if I may, Mr. President, I want to recognize the Lunar New Year. You may see this gold object on my desk here. It was a gift from the Asian community to me this week. It signifies the Year of the Rabbit. And on January 22nd and throughout the last week, I celebrated our entering into the Year of the Rabbit alongside many residents of my district. We served our community when we distributed food at Cottman and Frankford STATED MEETING 105 1/26/2023 area near Tacony Baptist Church. Households across my district, this city, and our nation were full of family, friends, and loved ones with optimism for the year to come. Unfortunately, over this past week, starting on the Lunar New Year, members of the AAPI community were targeted and attacked across the nation. Mr. President, I request a moment of silence for the 11 killed and nine injured in Monterey Park, California, for the seven agricultural workers of Asian and Hispanic descent murdered in Half Moon Bay, California, and for the victims of the shooting at Tokyo Foods in Evendale, Ohio.
Thank you. May we please have a standing moment of silence. (Moment of silence.)
Thank you, Councilman. STATED MEETING 106 1/26/2023 -
Councilman, you all are my bosses. Whatever you wish to decide.
Thank you. As I said when this body passed my resolution condemning anti-semitism, an attack on one faith is an attack on all faiths. We must do more to protect Asian Americans in our city and across the country who are ever-more increasingly being targeted. I commend and repeat President STATED MEETING 107 1/26/2023 federal assault weapons ban. I call upon the General Assembly of Pennsylvania to pass common sense safety legislation, including safe storage, no fly - no buy, lost and stolen firearms reporting, and red flag laws. (Applause.)
Guns in the hands of people who intend to use them to harm, intimidate, and kill facilitate the high violent crime in our city and across the nation. It is irresponsible to not allow this body to pass legislation to protect its citizens and, in turn, do nothing at the state level. I hope that this new season of the General Assembly is able to do better and protect the people of Pennsylvania. Thank you, Mr. President.
Thank you. Thank you, Councilman. STATED MEETING 108 1/26/2023 (Applause.)
We're with you 1,000 percent. Anyone else? (No response.)
Thank you. I just want to make sure. The Chair recognizes Councilman Squilla for a motion to adjourn.
