Pittsburgh DSA is turning out members and allies to attend a session of Allegheny County Council's Public Safety Committee, where members of the committee will be discussing an ordinance to amend the Allegheny County Code of Ordinances to add a new “Jail Rape Elimination” article to strengthen protections against rape and sexual assault at Allegheny County Jail. This is an issue which disproportionately affects transgender arrestees and inmates. We will be showing up at this meeting as a visible form of public support for the ordinance.
