76ers first declared they need NO HELP from the city. NOW, they want free land and tax breaks. Crooks.

The people won another vote delay. 💪 Hundreds of us came out in the rain to bear witness to a disastrous deal, and the hearing was immediately recessed until 4pm. City Council DOESN’T HAVE THE VOTES to pass this rushed deal and we won't let up. Pack City Council at 3pm.

Chanting again in Philadelphia City Council as a Sixers arena vote nears. Session was halted at 9 this morning. Members may try a vote this afternoon. @Fox29.

She hid our reply, so let's say it here: This is a sellout deal and you know it Councilmember Dr. Nina Ahmad (At-Large). You caved to billionaires, sold out the people you claimed to represent, and barely got two dimes to rub together for it. What an embarrassment.

Our communities showed up bright and early to pack Philadelphia City Hall! You can use any entrance to get in and enter City Council chambers & watch today's vote #NoArena

What City Council did today was a disgrace. Our full statement below:

My statement with Councilmember Nicolas O'Rourke on the news about the arena:

Mayor Parker: "This is a curveball nobody saw coming." Chinatown advocates, journalists, community members who don't trust billionaires before the public interest:

"I can't believe I spent years on this shit"

Anyway, here we are. City officials got played on the Sixers arena — and then they tried to play us inquirer.com/opinion/arena-…

Billionaires may shape Philly’s landscape, but they do not define our character In this entire Sixers debacle, you know what the most Philly part was? The No Arena Coalition protests. 1/2 inquirer.com/columnists/six…
