We'll be there tomorrow!

Philadelphia gardeners and farmers, who have turned neglected land into beloved community spaces, deserve our admiration and support. Yet despite providing a wealth of benefits to our city, most community gardens in Philadelphia are at risk.

On vouchers: 'Funding private schools will not move the Commonwealth a single dollar closer to its constitutional mandate, because that mandate is clear: The General Assembly must support and maintain a contemporary, effective public education system' pubintlaw.org/wp-content/upl…

Voucher programs allow public dollars to be used in discriminatory ways, and they cause catastrophic academic losses.

They also don't move us a dollar closer to complying with the Court's order to fund effective, contemporary public schools for all. pubintlaw.org/wp-content/upl…

BREAKING: Along with Public Interest Law Center and Dechert, we've sued Butler County for refusing to count provisional ballots from two voters who forgot to include the secrecy envelope with their mail ballots in last week's primary.

We'll keep working to count every vote.

NEW: Our clients, two Butler County voters, were denied the ability to vote by provisional ballot after their mail-in ballots were rejected--blocking them from making their voice heard.

We sued the county with ACLU of Pennsylvania to protect this vital safety net. pubintlaw.org/cases-and-proj…

We urge PHLCouncil to confirm Joyce Wilkerson's nomination for Philadelphia's Board of Education today #PhlEd

Joyce Wilkerson provides stable leadership, strong advocacy for sufficient resources, and the effective oversight of charter schools that is the Board of Education's legal, ethical, and moral obligation. She should be confirmed. #PhlEd
pubintlaw.org/cases-and-proj…

Fiscal stewardship and effective oversight matter to all #PhlEd public school students.

Our senior attorney Dan Urevick-Ackelsberg writes that Wilkerson & Streater are 'dedicated public servants, who act with integrity, and who have a record of caring for all the children of Philadelphia.”

Philadelphia City Council’s attempt to upend the nomination of Joyce Wilkerson is bad news for the future of Philadelphia public education.

What would constitutional public school funding mean in Pennsylvania?

For a typical Lancaster classroom, Supt. Keith Miles writes, it would mean enough support to meet students' needs--whether that's help learning English or mental health support. lancasteronline.com/opinion/column…
