This MMPTV update features an informative discussion with Stan Shapiro, who spent 22 years as Chief Staff Attorney for Philadelphia City Council and currently co-chairs Neighborhood Networks.  Stan talked with us about the new city and state budgets and how working families and communities are being impacted by proposed cuts to public services and safety nets.  He also spoke with us about the ways that Philadelphia based institutions and corporations are contributing to the growing gap in the budget, and how this situation could be remedied.

This MMPTV update includes powerful stories from people who would be impacted by Governor Corbett's proposal to eliminate the statewide General Assistance Program and to cut the General Assistance related health care. 65,000 Pennsylvanians risk losing their only source of income--$205 a month.  This represents the single biggest cut in the proposed state budget.

Considering that Pennsylvania spends an average of $42,339 per year on an inmate, versus $1,845 per year on a General Assistance recipient, we see this not as a matter of cost savings, but a matter of priorities.

In this MMPTV update we discuss the recent demonstration led by the Dream Activists of Pennsylvania.  The protest focused on the release of Miguel Orellana, a 25-year old Dream Act eligible student who has been held in York County Prison for over 7 months. During this time in detention, Migeul sadly missed the birth of his second child.  But many people are fighting alongside Miguel so that he can be released and return to his family.  This event reveals the powerful unity across many immigrant and undocumented communities who are taking a stand for human rights.

The Stop Online Piracy Act (SOPA) and Protect IP Acts (PIPA) now on the floor in Congress will cripple journalism, independent creative expression, and life saving services by making it possible to shut down a website for a single link. Passing these bills means sacrificing millions of American's freedom to openly exchange information.
