Nobody said he was nor is that what anybody in the Duggan administration thinks. Don't you think accurate representation and funding in government is important? He's doing exactly what he should and he's right.
Things are addressed. There's no more foreclosures. The city is updating and building new public and affordable housing. There's barely any current population loss. These are losses from the beginning of the decade which everybody already knew about. There's billions in private investment, thousands of new high paying jobs about to be open in the city the likes not seen in 60 years. Healthy annual budget surpluses. They're doing their jobs and leadership hasn't been this competent in a very long time.
