I am lobbying for public contribution to clean blocks that are being resided by the people in Philadelphia. As of July of 2008, there are 1, 447, 395 people that reside in Philadelphia and clearly as of now there has to be many more people who are resided here in Philadelphia.
The Trash in Philadelphia is ridiculous, according to resources Philadelphia is the second dirtiest city in America and as well the third least attractive city in America. It is unhealthy for people to live this way and I want to help put an end to this and make some kind of change. The main supporters of my lobbying idea would have to be the City of Philadelphia Block Captains. They’re the ones who help the blocks that they live on come together so that they can live in a community in which people know one another and can create an environment that they set up to live in. The main opponents of my lobbying idea would definitely have to be the people who carelessly throw out their garbage upon the streets without thinking twice to even keep it long enough to where as though they reach a place of disposal for their trash. People go around without even thinking to do so. It really has to be the most frustrating thing that I find many people do. There needs to be a simple stop to this.
There has yet to be pending legislation Philadelphia that directly connects to my lobbying topic although there has been a resolution where people are to honor the City of Philadelphia Block Captains for the tremendous and outstanding work that they do for the block. I would like to actually like to see something even more beneficial to the blocks of the city though. I would like to propose a particular day where the block captain gets the block blocked off in order for the people of the block come together in order to clean up. Not just have a party, but indeed have day for cleaning the block in order to help the city restore its beauty. Philadelphia may be according to sources now the third least attractive city but just starting with something as small as picking up trash and help cleaning the block that is resided on for one day can help that. Nothing can be changed unless people are willing to help change that.
