Episode Details

The Committee of Seventy was founded more than 120 years ago to make Philly politics less corrupt. So is Philly less corrupt than it was then? Would abolishing the Sheriff’s Office, ending judicial elections, and imposing term limits fix our politics? Host Trenae Nuri visits Lauren Cristella, president and CEO of the Committee of Seventy, for our weekly Wednesday politics episode to find out how to improve civic engagement and our political system. Go here to listen to our May interview with Sheriff Rochelle Bilal.
