I live in District 4 and Curtis Jones represents me. 
Curtis Jones hosted and sponsored a fracking resolution in order to forbid fracking from the Marcellus Shale.

Curtis Jones and I both have similar opinions about fracking. It has a negative impact on the environment. He is attempting to make changes with the power he has as a Councilman. 



The area (District 4) Councilman Jones represents in where he went to high school (Overbrook High School)
What Councilman Jones has done prior to his Councilman position:
Councilman Jones has served on numerous boards and executive committees including the Pennsylvania Convention Center Authority’s Minority Advisory Committee, Genesis II Board of Directors, and the Philadelphia Convention and Visitors Bureau Minority Advisory Council. He has also served as co-Chair of the Philadelphia MED week Committee.

Councilman Jones has served in city government throughout the past seven mayoral administrations; the councilman has been invited to the White House by both the Clinton and Bush Administration.  He has also addressed the State House by way of several of its committees on issues germane to Philadelphia, giving his insight on Economic Development.

As a result of his numerous years of experience in the Philadelphia Economic Development landscape, Councilman Jones has become one of City council’s most formidable advocates for community development and educational stability.
