FATTAH RELEASES 'REFORM' AD

Highlights commitment to Philadelphians, shows contrast to others

PHILADELPHIA, PA -- Pointing to his lifelong commitment to transforming young lives, Chaka Fattah today released his third ad of the campaign, "Reform."

Speaking directly to the voters, Fattah illustrates the choice Philadelphians now face.

"Tom Knox and Michael Nutter say they want to 'reform' government. What's their answer? Massive budget cuts, which would put neighborhood schools and services at risk," said Fattah. "With one in four of our people living in poverty, that's a plan Philadelphia just can't afford."

Fattah then lays out his vision for Philadelphia.

"My plan offers hope for our city -- seizing illegal guns; improving early learning and literacy; opening after-school programs for every child. I've spent a lifetime transforming young lives. Together, you and I will transform our city."
