Controversy
In 2012 she has caused controversy for abusing Philadelphia’s Deferred Retirement Option Plan (DROP). DROP allows city workers to collect salary and build up pension money during the last four years of their employment. So to game the system she will retire from her sixth term as councilwoman, collect $478,057, and then be sworn in on Monday to serve her seventh term[3]
