i support DROP as an earned benefit for municipal workers who make less money than they would in the private sector, but this loophole is an affront to tax payers and makes the average citizen hate politicians. just a terrible look inquirer.com/politics/philad…

This Philly City Hall power couple stands to reap up to $750K by briefly retiring — then continuing...

City Councilmember Curtis Jones Jr. and City Representative Jazelle Jones are both set to benefit from DROP, a city retirement incentive program which sparked a major scandal in the early 2000s.

"Making matters worse, the district has growing costs it cannot control. For example, its annual charter costs have risen by $587 million over the last three years, despite flat enrollment..." inquirer.com/opinion/comment…

Schools crisis isn’t overspending. It’s underspending. | Opinion

Even with significantly increased state funding over the last two years, the district continues to wildly underspend by a billion dollars annually, according to state law.
