Kenyatta Johnson for City Council

I would like to thank the Committee People of the 8th Ward for their endorsement of my Candidacy for the 2nd Council District.

Honored Meek Mill at City Council yesterday for his artistry and criminal justice reform efforts in Philadelphia, the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and across the country. Everyone deserves a second chance and Meek has shown that he’s sincere in his efforts to make sure our justice system is just and fair for all.

From 2017 to 2018, Missing persons reports for juveniles went up from 2700 to 2900 in Philadelphia. About 80% of reports were African-American youth. Where are these children?! ➡️ Have you seen these girls?
I don’t know why we don’t hear more about this, but this issue deserves way more attention than it has been getting!

Today, I introduced a resolution to bring more attention to this issue and hold hearings around missing and exploited children in Philadelphia. @ Philadelphia City Hall

"City Councilman Kenyatta Johnson was on hand at Ralph Brooks Tot Lot playground at 20th and Tasker to announce the beginning of a new street cleaning program in Point Breeze on Monday. The program started that day. He was also joined by representatives from the Urban Affairs Coalition and Ready, Willing and Able, the nonprofit contracted to conduct the street cleaning.

“Residential street cleaning on this scale is a first for Philadelphia in the 21st century,” Johnson said at the announcement. “Now it’s finally happened.”"
