Congressman Chaka Fattah (D-

Philadelphia), architect of the

nationally successful GEAR

UP program that provides college

readiness and preparation for low-in-

come students, yesterday introduced a

House Resolution that spotlights Sep.

29 as National GEAR UP Day. GEAR

UP is a program long championed by

the Congressman.

“GEAR UP not only prepares our un-

derserved young people for the rigors

of higher education,

it sets them on a path

to success in the job

market that is en-

hanced by a college

degree,” said Fattah,

an education innova-

tor and advocate throughout his eight

terms in Congress.

“Even in these tough economic times,

hundreds of thousands of jobs go beg-

ging because job seekers, especially

young adults, don't have the education

and skills to compete,” Fattah said.

“GEAR UP provides preparation and

readiness skills to 6th- through 12th-

graders in our poorest schools that

translate to employment opportunities

as well as college achievement.”

GEAR UP – Gaining Early Awareness

and Readiness for Undergraduate Pro-

grams – has served about 12 million

students with about $3 billion in Fed-

eral resources since its inception in

September 1999. Fattah created and

guided GEAR UP to passage in legisla-

tion signed by President Clinton.

In Philadelphia, GEAR UP is providing

college readiness services for almost

7,000 middle-

and high-school-

ers attending, or

on track to attend,

Audenreid, Edi-

son, Frankford,

Franklin, Olney

East, Olney West, University City, Fels,

Furness, Germantown and Overbrook

HSs.

On Sep. 29 at 10 a.m., Fattah will join

US Secretary of Education Arne Dun-

can for National GEAR UP Day kick-

off ceremonies at Friendship Public

Charter School in Washington, D.C.

The program will be transmitted by

closed circuit to GEAR UP Day events

in states from Pennsylvania to Texas.

Fattah Promotes

GEAR UP In Capitol

The Pennsylvania AFL-

CIO endorsed Patrick

Murphy in Pennsylva-

nia’s 8th Congressional District

race over his opponent, former

Congressman Mike Fitzpatrick,

who lied to the organization

when he promised members he

would vote against outsourcing

American jobs.

Mary Dunne, president of the

Bucks Co. AFL-CIO, recalled

the meeting she had with Con-

gressman Fitzpatrick in the

summer of 2005. She traveled

from Bensalem to Washington

to ask that Fitzpatrick vote

against a trade deal that would

ship American jobs to Central

America. The Congressman

promised Mary and the other

working families present that

day he would vote no. But

something changed in between

that meeting and the time Fitz-

patrick walked down to the

House floor to cast his vote on

the Central American Free

Trade Agreement just a few

hours later. As documented in

later news reports, Dick Cheney

called Fitzpatrick to tell the

freshman Congressman they

needed his yes vote. That was

all it took.

One phone call from Cheney

and Congressman Fitzpatrick

flipped, breaking his word to his

constituents and becoming the

tie-breaking vote to outsource

American jobs.

“Fitzpatrick lied to my face that

day,” Mary said of her 2005

meeting with the former Con-

gressman. “You may not agree

with Patrick Murphy on every

issue, but you know when he

tells you something, he’ll stick

to his word.”
