Going on about 4 months now as a result much tougher for the city to balance its budget and cover the things that need to be covered. The mayor has put forth her proposal, but it means that several City Employees in fact all of them, well have to do for their pay hike at least for a couple of years thats the mayors plan. At the beginning of this year. We were living in a different world. Our Unemployment Rate was at a historic low. Tourism was at an alltime high. Our hotels were full.

I want black boys growing up today to thrive because we chose to change how this city and how this country treats are young black men, not as a statistic or an f a double tragedy, but as an important part of our citys future.
