“Good intentions have too often produced little more than lip service. In the Young Men’s Initiative we may finally have an effort where ambitious vision, planning and resources replace platitudes and promises.
“I applaud the mayor for his commitment to dealing with problems that have devastated many minority families and communities for generations. I thank him and Mr. Soros for their generosity.
“I stand ready to help the administration however I can. I also stand ready to hold the mayor’s feet to the fire on this initiative.
“Many of the communities I represent, and our city and country, desperately need this initiative to succeed.”
