The Neighborhood Civic PAC is a medium for like-minded Philadelphia residents to carry out public service initiatives..."it's all about the neighborhoods." The Neighborhood Civic PAC is designed to help jumpstart civic associations in various neighborhoods and resurrect ones that were once mighty and help such associations get acclimated to the political process so that they may utilize this to the advantage of the neighborhood and constituency for which they represent.

Joan is running or she isn't

Krajewski in after all?
She missed four months of work due to illness last year, and has enrolled in the city's retirement-incentive program. But despite widespread assumptions that City Councilwoman Joan L. Krajewski's seventh term would be her last, could the Northeast Philadelphia Democrat be thinking of running again after all?
That's the rumor making its way around City Hall. And Krajewski, 72, isn't exactly dispelling it, either.
"I really don't know," she said last week. "I'll tell you when I decide."
She was a bit more definitive, however, when it came to another part of the story: That her recent trip to Atlantic City with Council President Anna C. Verna had been an opportunity for Verna - who became president with Krajewski's support - to lobby against retirement.
"I don't need to go all the way to Atlantic City to have somebody put the arm on me," Krajewski said. "I like my poker." Verna did not return a call for comment.

Not exactly sure what this means but it seems that Joan is not sure whether she is going to run again
