PHILADELPHIA — Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Wolf on Wednesday announced more than $100 million in new funding for community groups working to curb gun violence across the commonwealth.
The governor made the announcement from Mander Playground in North Philadelphia, one of many neighborhoods that have seen firsthand the toll of rapidly rising gun violence in the city over the last two years.
“Reducing gun violence has to be a top priority for all of us. It is for me,” Wolf said. “Our children deserve safety.”
