Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Off the top of my head I can't remember everything. However, he worked with several PACs to get a budget increase to the local schools, he and several members of the town's staff retained money from several major corporations, like PNC, to fund a fairly diverse set of extra-curricular activities and clubs for the local school as well as cover the costs to the students for those activities. Braddock had pretty much no where for people under 21 to do anything so he worked with a number of groups to get a pretty decked out community center built that, beyond a place to hang out and play, offered martial arts, classes in visual arts, music lessons, after school tutoring, and, IIRC, Wiz Khalifa put in money to add a studio with classes on sound engineering, production, etc. He and his wife opened a free grocery store available to those without food. They laid the ground for a government run, non profit, grocery store to address the food desert situation as well as provide more affordable food. He worked with a number of local community leaders, from churches to business owners, to reach out to kids getting into trouble with police, give them part time jobs, teach trade work, etc.
He fought very hard to get a lot of infrastructure improvements as well. Roads, public buildings and facilities, etc. He also helped get funding for a free to user day care.
