Juneteenth symbolizes freedom and the triumph of emancipation. It’s a day of reflection and celebration. We’re proud to designate #Juneteenth as an official City holiday. It’s a small step that represents our commitment to the magnitude of work that lies ahead. #BlackLivesMatter — PolitiTweet.org

Philly: You didn’t just flatten curve—you suppressed the virus and saved thousands of lives. #ThankYouPhilly Let's continue our progress so we can look back and say that we #ReopenedWithCare.

We must commit to reopening carefully. We've seen examples where that hasn't happened. COVID-19 rates are rising in 20+ states. In fact, rates are higher than ever in states like Arizona and North Carolina, and others like Florida saw a second wave 4-6 weeks after reopening. — PolitiTweet.org

We will still restrict some activities that are allowed by the state, and we’ll have stricter guidance. Philly is uniquely at risk as the most densely populated county in the state with the highest number of cases and deaths. We don’t want to see a second wave. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Jim Kenney @PhillyMayor

We continue to make progress. COVID-19 daily case counts are falling, residents are wearing masks, & hospitalizations are dropping. If this continues, we will be ready to carefully enter the green phase in early July, possibly July 3. https://t.co/rOu5dzOpUS — PolitiTweet.org

June is World Elder Abuse Awareness Month. Over 4,300 reports of suspected elder abuse, neglect, and financial exploitation were investigated last year. In this time of isolation and social distancing, our elderly residents are even more susceptible to becoming victims. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Jim Kenney @PhillyMayor

The COVID-19 epidemic is not over. Residents and businesses must follow @PHLPublicHealth guidance to keep people healthy and to keep our case count down. See a restaurant that's not adhering to rules, like spacing tables six feet apart? Don't eat there, and report to @Philly311. — PolitiTweet.org
