It's a great day in a great room. Again, I'd like to thank the support system, our IT folks, for doing a very aggressive and productive transformation from one of Philadelphia's most noteworthy courtrooms into the Council Chambers for today. I thank you all so much for your great work, guys. We really appreciate it. We have a quorum. I'd ask all guests and visitors to retire behind the rail, and at this time, we will start our Council session. To give our invocation this morning, the Chair recognizes Pastor Alex Velazquez of Oasis City Church. He is here today as the guest of Councilwoman Bass. I would ask all members and guests to please rise. (Members and guests rise.)
Good morning. I am not sure if we should take this opportunity to pray for the Flyers while we're here and also for the Philadelphia Phillies. But if you can bow your heads for me. Father, we thank you this morning for giving us just this great day. We pray this morning that you may give us the wisdom that is needed to tackle the difficult and just the challenging situations that we face every day in the City. Give every person, Lord God, the patience that they need, Lord God, the strength that they need and the wisdom that you gave Solomon so that we can continue bettering the people of this great city. We love you. In Jesus' name. Amen. (Amen.)
you, Pastor, for those inspiring words. Council will be at ease. (Council at ease.)
Again, thank you very much, Pastor. The next order of business is the approval of the Journal of the meeting of Thursday, February 19th, 2015, and the Chair recognizes Councilman Greenlee.
Thank you, Mr. President. I move that the Journal of the meeting of Thursday, February 19th, 2015 be approved. (Duly seconded.)
Thank you. It has been moved and properly seconded that the Journal of the meeting of Thursday, February 19th, 2015 stand approved. All those in favor say aye. (Aye.)

The Chair thanks the gentleman. The Chair recognizes Councilman O'Neill.

The Chair thanks the gentleman. At this time, I will dispense with the regular order of business and I and thank everyone who has come down today to witness their government in action. We really appreciate the fact that you are engaged and participating in this wonderful process that the Constitution and the City Charter gives us. We hope that you enjoy yourselves so much today that you actually come back again. So, again, thank you all, and continue to be a part of our wonderful government. At this time, the Chair recognizes Councilman Jones, who will present a resolution honoring Philadelphia's living legends. Would all those living legends please join the Councilman at the podium. (Councilmembers and guests approached podium.)
And joining the Councilman, we have Councilman Goode, Councilwoman Quinones-Sanchez, Councilman Neilson, Councilwoman Bass, Councilman Oh, Blackwell, and Councilman Henon.
Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. (Good morning.)
All right. Today we recognize living legends. As a result of the national African American History Month, which has its origins in 1915 by Dr. Carter G. Woodson who said that if a race has no history, it has no worthy traditions. It becomes a negligible factor in the thought of the world and stands in danger of being exterminated. We could have stopped there and just recognized names from the past, but on Germantown Avenue in Councilwoman Bass' district, there is a mural and it had a face on the wall, and there were some young people that were walking down the street, and I asked them, Tell me who mural. One was David P. Richardson. The other was Georgie Woods. And none of them had an idea who they were. And so we said that we need to recognize people constantly, not just the ones who have come before, but the ones who are here right now making a difference. Whether we talk about legends like Lucien E. Blackwell or Vernon Marks in North Philadelphia who made a difference by sitting on his step and doing his thing and providing poor people with housing, these people weren't on murals. They weren't on -- I actually brought the picture, and every time on my desk, Councilman Greenlee, I could tell the age of a person I'm talking to because they won't know who these people are. That's actually Milton Street with them when he had hair. So we're here today to recognize some people that are doing a difference today. Whether you talk about Vai Sikahema with his children's adoption program making a difference or you talk about, at the other end of the spectrum, Geneva Black, who has made the fourth quarter of life, seniors' life, look sexy. So here we are. Honoring the Philadelphia Living Legends: Geneva Black, Senator Shirley M. Kitchen, Cody Anderson, Vernon Odom, Fire Commissioner Lloyd Ayers, Vai Sikahema, Bobby Williams in the areas of government, public safety, social justice, civil rights, labor relations, journalism, community activism, business leadership. And we are also taking the opportunity to recognize a young whipper-snapper, who won't be on a mural for quite some time, but has made a significant difference. He picks winners. He started out with Seth Williams for DA. He went with Obama against the tide back then, got it right; for Mayor; went with a guy by the name of Onorato out in the western end of Pennsylvania; and then the surprise of the decade, a guy by the name of Tom Wolf. So we're recognizing him as well. Whereas
Geneva A. Black has dedicated her life and service for more than 45 years to providing quality, compassionate in-home and center-based care for elderly and vulnerable residents in West Philadelphia and beyond. In 1970, Ms. Black joined the Haddington Leadership Organization as a housing coordinator and two years later became its Executive Director. Since that time, the organization was renamed Haddington Multi-Services for Older Adults, Inc. and has more than quadrupled its staff, services and positive impact in the community;
And whereas, the Honorable Shirley M. Kitchen of political service and community advocacy dating back to 1970 when she was a poll worker, to her days as a constituent service representative at Philadelphia City Hall, to her leadership as a State Representative and her current role on the Pennsylvania State Senate since 1997. Senator Kitchen's leadership has been celebrated with numerous awards including the Philadelphia Tribune's Most Influential African American Leader, the Dawn Staley Foundation Government Service Award, the Warren E. Smith Corporate Woman of the Year Award and the Distinguished Service Community Impact Award from the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, among many others; and
Whereas, Cody Anderson launched a distinguished career in radio as vice president and general manager of WDAS radio in Philadelphia. He continued on to radio and opened a family-operated public relations firm while also working with Dr. and Mrs. Walter Lomax to make 900 AM WURD radio accessible to the Philadelphia African American community. Mr. Anderson worked tirelessly with area prisons, speaking with inmates and giving them a chance to tell their stories, exemplary of his belief that everybody deserves to be heard. Mr. Anderson is also committed to service beyond the borders of Philadelphia with philanthropic contributions to Hurricane Katrina victims and vulnerable groups in Senegal, Africa where he was recognized as an honorary Chief; and
Whereas, Vernon Odom, anchor with Action News team, comes from a strong family history of journalists. His maternal grandfather, B.T. Harvey, Sr., was the second African-American to publish a daily newspaper. Vernon Odom has been with more than 35 years. His reportorial experience dates back to the Martin Luther King assassination when he was a radio reporter in Atlanta. He has covered various phases of the civil rights movement in the Deep South and early political campaigns for national leaders such as former President Jimmy Carter, Andrew Young, Julian Bond and Maynard Jackson. In November 2004, Mr. Odom was inducted into the Broadcast Pioneers Hall of Fame;
Whereas, Lloyd Ayers began his career with the Philadelphia Fire Department in 1974 and devoted 31 years to public service with the Philadelphia Fire Department, serving in every rank in the Department from Lieutenant to Deputy Commissioner. Then, Lloyd Ayers was sworn in as Philadelphia's Fire Commissioner on Wednesday, December 1st, 2004. As Fire Commissioner, he managed the 2,400-member the operations of the Philadelphia Fire Department, which comprise the 5th largest fire department in the United States. Commissioner Ayers retired from the Philadelphia Fire Department on June 13th, 2014, ending four decades of remarkable service;
Whereas, Vai Sikahema celebrated a lengthy professional football career in the NFL from 1986 to 1993 when he retired from professional football and the Philadelphia Eagles. Vai then launched his career as sports announcer in 1994 and with then-CBS owned and operated television station WCAU in Philadelphia working as a spokesperson for weekend sporting events. After the station was sold to NBC, Vai has moved on to do weekday sports announcing and currently serves as the station's sports director;
Whereas, Bobby J. Williams is a tireless community advocate who has dedicated the past 62 to struggling residents in the Nicetown-Tioga neighborhood. Williams began his community activism as a coordinator in the NAACP - first under the Philadelphia chapter President A. Leon Higginbotham, then throughout the tenure of Cecil B. Moore. Williams also founded several community organizations and became a member of countless more, all while working his way up the ladder at a men's suits warehouse and running his own dry-cleaning service. Today, Williams can be found still giving back to the community in a variety of roles with non-profit organizations throughout Philadelphia;
Whereas, Obra S. Kernodle, IV was born and raised in Philadelphia. A graduate of Roman Catholic High School, he obtained a Bachelor of Arts in Education from Florida Agriculture and Mechanical University in 2002. Before joining the Wolf for Governor Campaign, Obra worked Nutter's Administration as deputy of legislative affairs, helping to coordinate the City's Actual Value Initiative (AVI).
In 2012, Obra was part of the presidential reelection of Obama and as a Pennsylvania southeast political director. Obra previously served as the director of both Mayor Nutter's 2011 reelection bid and District Attorney Seth Williams' race in 2009. Obra currently holds the position of Deputy Chief of Staff for Governor Tom Wolf. Before serving in his current position, Obra played a key role on the Wolf campaign as a senior advisor -- it's hard to call him senior anything, but -senior advisor for the Wolf transition team and also as deputy campaign manager and political director. Obra's appointment as Deputy Chief of Staff for the youngest African American to hold such a position in a governor's cabinet. That deserves a clap. (Applause.)
Be it resolved, by the Council of the City of Philadelphia, that we hereby honor and celebrate Philadelphia's Living Legends: Geneva Black, Senator Shirley M. Kitchen, Cody Anderson, Vernon Odom, Fire Commissioner Lloyd Ayers, Vai Sikahema and Bobby Williams in the areas of government, public safety, social justice, civil rights, labor relations, journalism, community activism and business leadership in Philadelphia; also recognizing Obra Kernodle, IV as an Up and Coming Living Legend, all as part of Black History Month. Further be it resolved, that an engrossed copy of this resolution be presented to the Philadelphia Living Legends as evidence of this -- the sincerity of this legislative body. Thank you. (Applause.)
Awesome. The Chair recognizes Senator Shirley Kitchen for remarks. That's right, Senator. You know what it's like. SENATOR KITCHEN: I owe you one, my brother.
I know. SENATOR KITCHEN: I knew you had something up your sleeve, though. I really did. This is just a wonderful show of support for us and the encouragement, and I know that my fellow recipients feel like I do. The only thing missing today is the people that was on that journey with us that helped us to accomplish so many of the things. So it's good to give people their roses while we could smell much. (Applause.)
Thank you, Chairman. I appreciate that, President Clarke, all of you here. I want to thank my NBC 10 team, my morning team, Chris and Bill and Tracy and my colleagues, our NBC 10 alums who are here. I appreciate that you guys came out, members of my faith, all of you. Thank you very much, Councilman Jones, for submitting my name. This is quite an honor. I don't want to leave out my wife. Every person here could probably appreciate this: Behind every successful man is a shocked mother-in-law. I appreciate that her parents had faith that I could take care of their daughter. Thank you very much, Council President and Council. Thank you for it.
Thank you very much. And, again, congratulations to our living legends and the youngest member of the group, soon to be a living legend. The next order of business is communications.

Justin Haley, commenting on 150133. (Witness approached podium.)
Good morning. My name is Justin Haley. I'm a member of Unite Here 634. I've been a student safety staff for Motivation over for five years now, located at 59th and Baltimore Avenue. I am a fellow student safety staff. We are charged with keeping order, looking after, and ensuring the safety of the students we serve. We do this and much more. We look out for bullying and emotionally stressed students. We lend an ear and a trusting adult to talk to. We are often called the second moms and dads of the schools. We do all this while watching over hundreds of kids at one time. We thank you for passing this resolution. Thank you.
Nicole Hunt, commenting on 150133. (Witness approached podium.)
My name is Nicole Hunt. I'm a food service worker for the School District of Philadelphia and I'm a representative of Unite Here Local 634. My co-workers and I feed thousands of children across the City every day. For many of them, we provide their only reliable meal. We also love and take enormous pride in what we do. We hope to get this matter resolved as soon as possible. In spite of the current situation, the members remain committed to the students, their safety, and care is our number one priority. The students are like our children, so ultimately ours is a labor of love. Please pass this resolution. Thank you.
Donna Cooper, commenting on 150005. (Witnesses approached podium.)
Good morning. Council President, Sharon and I are both testifying. Can she go first and then I go second? We're both on the list.
Thank you. Good morning. I'm Reverend Sharon Easterling. I'm the Executive Director of the Delaware Valley Association for the Education of Young Children. We're the professional association of early childhood practitioners, and we're on a mission to make every early childhood program in the City high quality so that all children have the opportunity to achieve their God-given potential. As I speak to you this morning, I'm fully aware of the myriad of pressing issues facing the City of Philadelphia. They're all clamoring for your attention and each is asserting priority status. So when I tell you that ensuring a high-quality preschool experience for every young child in Philadelphia is the single most important thing we can do to address the vexing problems of multi-generational poverty, education funding, student outcomes, crime, and the escalating costs of incarceration, a skilled workforce, an insufficient tax base, and the runaway costs of chronic health problems, I'm pretty sure you'll be skeptical. But more than 40 years of research bears out these benefits. Consider this one fact: If I told you that we have the ability to reduce the number of children in each grade in the School District of Philadelphia who need special education from 1,500 students down to below 500, saving $5 million per class, for a total of $60 million in savings in that one area, I think you would be impressed. Well, that's exactly what the evaluation of Pre-K Counts in Philadelphia demonstrates, reduction of special ed from 14 percent down to 4 percent. Unfortunately, despite the proven benefits of high-quality early childhood education, the state only funds a fraction of eligible children, and the City has even less skin in the game. But the benefits of universal pre-K is only part of the story. There is another fact that we ignore at our own peril, because the majority of our young children in the City are in child care programs that are substandard because of chronic underfunding. We can ignore this silent crisis today, but ultimately we'll pay the price when these children grow up and their challenges become more costly to remediate. So if we know that universal high-quality pre-K has such a great return on investment and less than a third of our children are getting these services and the remainder of children are in poor to mediocre quality, what do we need to do to move forward? What we need is a plan to fund universal pre-K in Philadelphia. We need a plan that is embraced and owned by the leaders of this city, and we need to build public will to support that plan. Thank you very much.
I'm Donna Cooper. I'm the Executive Director of Public Citizens for Children and Youth and I'm here today to thank Councilwoman Blackwell, the Chair of the Education Committee, for managing a process to bring together this terrific resolution to put a pre-K measure on the ballot and to also thank her colleague, Blondell Reynolds Brown, for making sure this happened, and ultimately, Council President Clarke, to thank you for putting this on the docket today. I know that and we all know it's a very crowded ballot. We know that we should take our Charter very seriously. It is a sacred document. But I also know that the vote today to put this measure on the ballot is about the future of our city. I cannot emphasize more strongly that a vote to put this on the ballot will change the trajectory of our city. I want to thank you for a yes vote on this measure, because you will be voting to reduce child poverty. I want to thank you for a yes vote on this measure, because you will be voting for our children to start school ready for school success. I want to thank you for a yes vote on this measure, because you will be making sure more of our children graduate high school, go to college, and graduate college. I want to thank you for a yes vote on this measure, because you will be decreasing the number of children who are arrested and incarcerated. And, finally, I want to thank you for voting yes on this measure, because you will be voting for the prosperity, the vibrancy, and the competitiveness of our city. And I want to invite my friends who helped us collect these 4,000 petitions that we're bringing into Council right now that recognize your courage to put this on the ballot and your belief that the voters will say yes and your willingness to vote today to help the dreams of our children come true. And if you'll just stand. A few of us are in the room today. Kadeesh, stand up and Sean and Sharon for helping get these petitions. Thank you very much, City Council of Philadelphia. (Applause.)

Thank you, Mr. President.

Thank you very much. Are there any speeches on the part of the minority? And, again, I ask you all to raise your hands because we do not have the screen. The Chair recognizes Councilman Oh.
Thank you very much, Council President. I just wanted to alert the public, as I know Councilwoman Blackwell has as well, that since there has been a law changed regarding tax-exempt properties, that there's now a requirement that documentation be filed to ensure that non-profit organizations are using the non-profit manner. Unfortunately, what has happened is the Office of Property Assessment, which had dated letters January the 21st, did not send out the letters until February the 13th, and many organizations are receiving those packages or those letters now, and they are alarmed to find a deadline of March 31st for tax year 2016. The requirements are burdensome: a copy of the organization's articles of incorporation; a copy of the organization's Internal Revenue Service letter of determination for 501(c)(3) recognition; a copy of the organization's charter and bylaws, including all amendments; a copy of the most recent income and expense statement; a copy of the organization's current statement of assets and liabilities; a copy of the organization's most recently filed IRS form 990; a statement of all fundraising activities conducted by the organization; leases entered into by the organization for space at the subject property; and a copy of the recorded deed for the subject property. Failure to comply with documentation requirements will slow the processing, but failure to meet the March 31st deadline will have serious consequences for tax-exempt entities, because they will lose their tax exemption and become fully taxable for the year 2016 and future years going forward. Small churches, volunteer organizations, ethnic groups which have non-profits and they may not speak English are at this time, many of them, unaware that there is a new requirement, that there are forms to be filled out, documentation to substantiate, and a deadline of March 31st. I was at a meeting last night of a veteran's organization and as I walked in, they were talking about this issue, that they don't have regular meetings, they don't have full-time officers. They just got the letter, and they are now just aware that they are looking at this big tax issue. And so it is important that the Office of OPA provide a new deadline, and what I have done is to introduce a bill to set the -- to extend the deadline to June the 1st, adding another 62 days. The important issue here is that we fast-track this and we let organizations know, one, is they have this law; second, is that they have to comply with it. And I know that there are other issues that are going on, but at least in terms of the many organizations that are reaching out I think to all of us, that we are extending the deadline, at least if the bill passes. Thank you very much.
Mr. President, I will be sending around today to my colleagues a press release from the Business Wire to show that UIL was bought by Iberdrola USA company, a foreign company operating in the United States. My only question today is, what did UIL know and when did they know it? Thank you.
Thank you, Councilwoman. Councilwoman, that name sounds familiar. UIL is -what is that?
Sounds familiar. Thank you. Thank you, Councilwoman. The Chair recognizes Councilman Johnson.
Thank you, Mr. President. I want to concur with the statement by my colleague Councilman Office of Property Assessment and the requirement for non-profit organizations to file their tax-exempt status by March the 31st. I have been in contact with members of several churches, including the President of the Black Clergy of Philadelphia, who also reached out to Councilwoman Jannie Blackwell regarding this issue. We know that churches are traditionally tax exempt, and if this measure moves forward as is without the churches being notified about the actual deadline, it can have a significant and dire impact on their overall operations. And so I wholeheartedly support Councilman Oh's legislation, and we will be vocal as they move forward to make sure those who are doing the good work in the non-profit area aren't penalized based upon legislation based upon a policy that came out of the Office of Property Assessment. Also, Mr. President, today I a dollar-for-dollar tax credit to businesses which contribute to job training programs here in the City of Philadelphia. This bill will make skilled labor positions more available by encouraging businesses to invest in low-cost skill certification programs. It will employ folks with higher paying jobs, increase our tax base, and is the exact type of investment governments should be making in our workforce. Generosity.com, a columnist and Urban Affairs Coalition manager of partnerships and outreach and a constituent of mine, Tivoni Devor, made a compelling argument to connect tax credits to job training, which was found in the Philadelphia Business Journal article "Generosity: Why Philadelphia should invest in skilled labor development." This article was the impetus for the program. And so as we move forward, I Democratic National Convention coming here to the City of Philadelphia. We also have the Pope coming here to the City of Philadelphia. But also as we focus on closing the gap between the rich and the poor, we continue to have an agenda of helping people get jobs; most importantly, a skilled workforce. And so I just want to make that known to the public. Thank you, Mr. President.
Thank you, Councilman. The Chair recognizes Councilwoman Blackwell.
Thank you, Mr. President. And I certainly thank my colleagues for all they've said about this issue of the Office of Property Assessment. The bill I introduced, the difference between mine and Councilman Oh's is that he postpones it until June and mine takes that section of the bill out, so that it will be as it bill was introduced. As was said, I did talk to the head of the Black Clergy, Pastor Terrence Griffith. I've talked to many ministers in my area. I've talked to my own church, Sharon Baptist Church, and in fact, on my way here, upstairs I ran into a couple women that were here just for this issue from the church. So certainly for all those who are representing churches around the City, we thank them for coming, and we ask that they will come back when we have a public hearing to express their concerns. I've talked to so many churches, from Metropolitan, many other churches who are very, very upset. Some churches received notification that they're supposed to file all these forms already referenced by Councilman Oh and some did not. Some churches received them themselves personally. Some have other people who received them. telling me about the Veterans of Foreign Wars, a vet post, where some have some issues in parts of the post in various members' names. So it appears that for the OPA to send out some notices that some got, some churches did not get and other non-profits, we really weren't ready for this aspect of this issue. Councilman Bill Green initially introduced it, and obviously he's not here. We have our own issues on the School Reform Commission we deal with.
Oh, my goodness. So, again, we thank everyone for coming, and we ask all those members from the various churches as soon as we have a public hearing date -- we had to introduce the bill here today -- we will let them know, and it has to be public in three papers, and we hope that they will come back so that we may have a full discussion and really pass the legislation we introduced today to do away with this reporting. Thank you very much.
Thank you, Councilwoman. This being the people's Council, I'm sure we'll collaborate and come up with a reasonable solution to this very troubling issue.
Thank you. The Chair recognizes Councilwoman Tasco.
Yes. Mr. President, I'd just like to introduce two new staff members for the 9th Councilmanic District, Mrs. Gwen Redman, us today. She's a strong community worker and leader in the 50th Ward, and we welcome her. (Applause.)
And she's a great cook. And Mr. Frank Iannuzzi, who is a young man who just finished law school -(Applause.)
-- with honors, and he's here sharing the spot which Derek Green held for many years before leaving to run for Council at large. Thank you.
Frank was actually a member of our Fellows Program in City Council.
During the discussion about one issue, I stopped and thought, Wait a minute, don't you want to come work for me. So he's a great person. I happen to know his parents and I didn't know I knew his parents.
Great training ground. And I suspect the Councilman is going to talk about the new hire. Councilman Johnson.
Thank you, Mr. President. I want to also acknowledge, in the spirit of my colleague Councilwoman Marian Tasco, a new addition to my staff, Ms. Jasmine Sadat. She's a graduate of Spelman College as well as -(Applause.)
-University of Berkeley - California. Jasmine, can you stand. She's the liaison for Planning and Community Engagement. I want to
Thank you. Mr. President, I neglected -- I would ask that you recognize and ask to stand members of the Black Clergy and other churches and other representatives who are here.
Thank you, Councilwoman. I'd like to ask the members of the Black Clergy and other churches please stand. (Applause.)
Thank you. Thank you so much. Given the challenges that we face every Council session, it is always good to have the clergy in the house. And please say a prayer for us. Thank you so much. There being no additional speeches -- Councilwoman
Thank you. Councilman Johnson keeps stealing the microphone from me. Thank you, Council President. I just wanted to add to today's discussion some important points. I definitely want to thank Councilman Greenlee, who has worked with all of us on some of these Charter changes. As was stated, the Charter is an important document and really should reflect the spirit in which we operate this government between the executive, the judicial, and the legislative branch of governments. I want to congratulate Councilwoman Blackwell on her Commission for Universal Pre-K. It goes without saying the value and the importance of that issue, and all of us will continue to support her on that. I also want to congratulate Councilwoman Brown and Tasco on the one of the most important things we can do as a legislative branch and as government is to ensure -- as Councilwoman Brown often says, if women are not on the table, they're on the menu. And I think that reestablishing the Women's Commission is an important value to not only us in the legislative branch but also to the executive branch. So I look forward to working with them on that establishment. And I want to thank my Council colleagues. Every single Thursday we're here and we vote on very, very important things, and a couple months ago I called out to those people interested in the second floor to look at what's going on in the fourth floor, and I think today is a reflection of the thoughtfulness of the legislative process and what we've done, and I want to thank all of my Council colleagues, Councilman Goode, for working with me on the language access issue. I think that with all of the has done through the Executive Order, through MOIMA, some of the immigration work that I worked with with Councilman Kenney, ensuring that we give the voters an opportunity to express their support for the important issues of this legislative body is hugely important. Language access, as we've seen, has become an issue as we deal with public safety issues and as we've dealt with a lot of the immigration issues but, more importantly, this allows us to engrain in our Charter the value of Philadelphia becoming this global city that we talk about. We've talked about the growth of immigrants, new immigrants, in the City, the economic clout that they bring, the vitality to the neighborhoods throughout the City of Philadelphia. Having an articulated plan and, more importantly, goal-setting for the departments is hugely important, because it sends a signal that, yes, English is the primary language, but we are very people feel like they have access to their government. As someone who has represented parts of the Northeast with a growing Russian community, Brazilian community, we all know the importance of the Asian and the Latino community and the growth of the City. They now represent 20 percent of the citizens of the City of Philadelphia. This is an important right step, and I'm very proud today, as I am every day, of this Council and the work we do and the support that we receive and I receive as we move forward these very important issues. So thank you to my colleagues and thank you to all of our stakeholders who work with us on all of these issues every single day. Thank you, Mr. President.
Thank you, Councilwoman. There being no additional speeches, the Chair recognizes Councilwoman Reynolds Brown for a motion.
Yes. Mr. President, before I get to my duty, I would be -- it's important that I say thank you to all members, both the women and all the enlightened men of Philadelphia City Council, for supporting Councilwoman Tasco's and our measure to make the Commission of Women a permanent fixture in government, presuming we get a yes vote from the voters. And the compelling argument for me is, right now women make 77 cents on the dollar, women of color make 64 cents on the dollar, and Latino women make less than that, and that number has only changed two cents in the last ten years, and at the rate we're going, my daughter will be 75 years old before women are making a dollar to a dollar for men. So I thank members for understanding that this was an important measure. Secondly, as we celebrate or last few days of African American History Month, I want to encourage and remind my colleagues to please join us in City Council for the third annual celebration of African American History Month, coming to our members with leadership and your consent, Mr. President, and this year we have music, art, dance, poetry, and a special reading by all members of Council wherein we will read Congressman John Lewis' speech as was given to the march on Washington. So all are invited, along with our special clergy who are joining us today. Please join us in Council Caucus, and please remember our friendly rule: If you don't stay for the program, then you simply cannot enjoy lunch with us. Thank you, Mr. President.
Yes. So I adjourned until Thursday, March 5th, 2015 at 10:00 a.m. (Duly seconded.)
Thank you. It's been moved and properly seconded that Council stand adjourned until Thursday, March 5th, 2015, 10:00 a.m. All those in favor? (Aye.)
The ayes have it.
