Phila. is proposing a ban on outdoor feeding of the hungry and the homeless, threating a fine of $150 and other punitive measures. This violates both civil rights and religious freedoms guaranteed by the Constitution.
Feeding people is a right, not a crime.
Phila. is the 2nd hungriest district in the country and the need is vital and severe. This proposed law is costly, unnecessary and just plain wrong.
Eliminate the ban on outdoor feedings now!
