Hawkins to Release Marshall Plan to Rebuild Syracuse on Fri. Oct. 13

Howie Hawkins, the Green Party candidate for Mayor of Syracuse, will hold a news conference on Friday October 13 in front of the Main State at the State Fairgrounds to call for a state and county-funded Marshall Plan to rebuild the city, including addressing the problem of segregation in housing and schools. The Marshall Plan was used to rebuild Europe after WWII.

Hawkins’ plan also includes job creation and anti-poverty initiatives.

Hawkins will hold the news conference at the Fairgrounds to highlight how the state and county have poured $120 million in and around State Fairgrounds in last few years while ignoring poverty in the city.
