John, Happy Thanksgiving!

I hope that you’re able to enjoy today’s holiday safely with your loved ones. I’m thankful to be spending the day with my wife and son.

Thanksgiving is a time for us to not only reflect on what we’re thankful for, but also to help those in our communities who are in need. Last weekend, my team delivered turkeys to nurses at Einstein Hospital, where they will go to sick patients in need of a proper Thanksgiving dinner.

As I’m reflecting on what I’m thankful for today, I'd like to take a moment to thank you for your support of me and my work on Council. It’s my honor and privilege to serve you and work towards a better future for all Philadelphians, and I couldn’t do this without you.

Have a safe and happy Thanksgiving,

Councilmember Derek Green
