Webinar: Empowering Local Communities to End Gun Violence – Feb 2
Posted by CeaseFirePA on January 26, 2021
For years, the General Assembly has failed to address the epidemic of gun violence while handcuffing local officials from taking action to save the lives of their constituents. In the fall of 2020, CeaseFirePA Education Fund joined with the CIty of Philadelphia and survivors to sue the state for creating a danger for Pennsylvanians.
Join Scranton Mayor Cognetti, CeaseFirePA’s Executive Director, and the Public Interest Law Center’s Ben Geffen for a discussion about the dangers of preemption, the legal path to safer communities, and what local officials can do to address the violence in their communities.
Date and Time: February 2, 2021, 12:00 PM
