Our administration knows that for many, trust in law enforcement has been ruptured, and to recover that trust we must recognize that fatal encounters with law enforcement have disproportionately involved Black and Brown people. — PolitiTweet.org

Two years ago, George Floyd’s murder crystallized for everyone the real, deep and pervasive impacts of systemic racism. His death represented the countless Black Americans tragically killed by police, and it catalyzed a long-overdue reckoning about systemic racism in our country. — PolitiTweet.org

Today, @POTUS signed a historic executive order to advance effective, accountable policing and criminal justice practices in an effort to build public trust and strengthen public safety. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Jim Kenney @PhillyMayor

Every person should be outraged and distraught that we accept these tragedies as unavoidable instead of making them impossible through legislation and policy change. We cannot accept continued violence as a way of life in our country. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Jim Kenney @PhillyMayor

Philadelphia grieves with the people of Uvalde, Texas. This is devastating. Every act of violence with a gun—from the street corner argument that ends in gunfire to the mass shooting in an elementary school—is a statement of policy failure for this country. — PolitiTweet.org

Mayor Jim Kenney @PhillyMayor

Thanks to @POTUS’s infrastructure law, Philadelphia has received over $20M in funding to support our rivers, roads, and bridges—including $13M to dredge the Schuylkill River. This is an exciting investment in our city’s rich rowing history and culture. https://t.co/dJlIzqrbic — PolitiTweet.org
