“I’m here to finish the job”: Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney reflects on a(nother) tough year

from The Week in Philly from KYW Newsradio · host Audacy

Does Jim Kenney really want his job? Philadelphia’s mayor brought this question upon himself on July 4th, when he said during a media briefing, “I’ll be happy when I’m not Mayor and I can enjoy some stuff.” The comments came in response to a non-fatal shooting incident during the city’s Fourth of July celebration, but those words have dogged Kenney ever since. So, how much truth was there to what he said? KYW Newsradio City Hall Bureau Chief Pat Loeb asks Kenney about that night and more in her annual year-end sit down with the Mayor, who was eager to defend his record despite gun violence continuing to roil the city.
