It’s the Friday News Roundup. We’re talking about how Philly’s District Attorney is teaming up with a national coalition of prosecutors to push back against ICE.

Plus, Mayor Cherelle Parker speaks out about the slavery exhibit removed from the President's House. Host Trenae Nuri and senior producer Abby Fritz also discuss how the city is still digging out from Sunday’s snowstorm.
