Philly Needs to Say No to National Guard

Philadelphians want our city to stand up and push back against the Trump administration, says Councilmember Kendra Brooks. We need to say no to the National Guard and hold ICE accountable, she says.

Brooks also spoke to the Hall Monitor about the importance of funding Philly’s senior centres and protecting reproductive health care.
