Don't Waste Time on "Sagging Pants" Laws

Don't Waste Time on "Sagging Pants" Laws

The Issue

Opportunistic legislators and fashion police around the U.S. have targeted sagging pants with laws forcing people to hike up their waistband. Not only are these measures a waste of time and energy, they're an invasion of civil liberties that targets the clothing choice of an urban, mostly minority population.

Sign the petition below to urge Florida Sen. Gary Siplin to drop his fight against drooping pants so we can focus on real issues facing our communities.
