Philadelphia Lawmakers Move Ahead on More Restrictive Curfew Law
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) - Prompted by this summer’s “flash mob” violence, a Philadelphia City Council committee today approved changes in the city’s curfew law that make it more restrictive.
The vote came despite objections from the ACLU, which called the bill unconstitutional.
The Committee on Public Safety signed off on Mayor Nutter’s plan to make the curfew hours earlier. Representatives of town watch groups and antiviolence groups testified in support of the measure, but the local ACLU was opposed.
