Had a wonderful time visiting #PHLpreK providers Miss Marty's Preschool, Learning My Way Montessori, & Little Einsteins Early Learning Center. I’m thankful for our partners who supported this program since the beginning. Now, 13,000+ kids have benefitted from free quality pre-K. https://t.co/UbECf00VjE — PolitiTweet.org

Comments like this are not only ignorant—they're dangerous. The AFT protects the interests of our teachers and the students they serve, and Randi Weingarten has been a champion of public education her entire career. This rhetoric does nothing but divide us.https://t.co/P8cUUHvKD9 — PolitiTweet.org

We successfully assisted asylum seekers from Texas last week and we continued to do so today. These folks are looking for a brighter and more hopeful life in America. We're proud to welcome them and provide them with the services and support they deserve. https://t.co/KJJ5GyKZ8t — PolitiTweet.org

The cold can be dangerous, particularly for people experiencing homelessness. If you see someone outside who may need help, request a street outreach team any time, any place, by calling 215-232-1984. https://t.co/C3lIpeXemH — PolitiTweet.org

Praying for the victims and loved ones of all those harmed in this tragic mass shooting. To the LGBTQ+ community, we stand with you during this devastating time. Our country is awash in guns—it's beyond time to take legislative action and help stop this. https://t.co/AavZobVi2r — PolitiTweet.org

As we kick off the holiday season, I want to thank @PhillyPolice for all that they do. PPD members like Officer Todd are always ready to help, support, and keep our residents and visitors safe. Thank you. https://t.co/osyXXXcrbU — PolitiTweet.org

I join all @PhiladelphiaGov employees in mourning the loss of Ikeem Johnson, a dedicated and driven @PhilaStreets sanitation worker. Earlier today, Ikeem was killed by gunfire while on the job. My condolences to everyone who knew him. https://t.co/QWm7OMV7mD — PolitiTweet.org

#PHLpreK continues to expand and offer free, quality pre-K to thousands of families. The program has more than doubled in size from 2,000 seats at 89 locations in 2017 to 4,300 seats at 180 locations this year. We are proud to have served more than 13,000 children so far! — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Jim Kenney @PhillyMayor

It was great visiting Amazing Kidz today to celebrate their expansion. The importance of high-quality early childhood education cannot be overstated, and Amazing Kidz has been a great partner to #PHLpreK and early childhood learning. https://t.co/1morbmWbfy — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Jim Kenney @PhillyMayor

By deploying civilians to support @PhillyPolice’s work, we can allow uniformed officers to focus on critical law enforcement tasks. This is a major step forward as we work to enhance public safety. https://t.co/EmA2BJgliV — PolitiTweet.org

I want to thank @PhilaOEM, @PhillyOIA, and all our community partners and agencies who have been working tirelessly to support this operation. I also want to acknowledge the outpouring of support from Philadelphians. Thank you. https://t.co/KJJ5GyLwY1 — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Jim Kenney @PhillyMayor

All of the folks who arrived here today have been screened by U.S. Customs and Border Control. Most will continue traveling to meet family elsewhere. Many, if not all, are seeking asylum because they face dangers in their homeland because of their race, religion, or politics. https://t.co/x07uHMZBqJ — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Jim Kenney @PhillyMayor

Today’s arrival of the bus from Texas with individuals seeking asylum went very smoothly. Philadelphia is a proud Welcoming City, and today is a great reminder that our communities work best when people feel welcomed and are provided the support they need and deserve. https://t.co/unK45gAj46 — PolitiTweet.org

It is disgusting that Gov. Abbott's administration continues to implement their purposefully cruel policy using immigrant families as political pawns. @PhiladelphiaGov agencies and partners are working to welcome, assist, and provide support to these individuals and families. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Jim Kenney @PhillyMayor

Late this afternoon, the City received confirmation of roughly 30 individuals seeking asylum traveling to Philadelphia from Texas. As a proud welcoming city, Philadelphia will greet our newly arrived neighbors with dignity and respect. https://t.co/KJJ5GyLwY1 — PolitiTweet.org

Nefertiri Sickout is a remarkable leader who has worked diligently, since the start of this administration, to help create a more equitable and inclusive government and city. I am proud to have served alongside her and wish her the best in her next endeavor. — PolitiTweet.org
