A proposito di questo titolo

Allegheny County Council is considering a bill to prohibit county employees from working with ICE agents, including the sheriff’s department and district attorney’s office. It’s not clear whether council has the authority to enforce those rules, but county executive Sara Innamorato says not only will she sign the bill, but that it’s worth a potential lawsuit to try and protect our immigrant neighbors. Host Megan Harris is Downtown with Innamorato talking about how the county has been working with federal agencies in the midst of ICE, how her office plans for worst-case scenarios, and why it’s up to individual school districts, hospital systems, and municipalities to save themselves if they want to keep DHS out of their facilities. Plus, Innamorato explains a yet-to-be-announced executive order to help make child care more affordable, an ambitious new order to better streamline options to buy a home in Allegheny County — including establishing its own land bank — our likelihood for landslides this spring, and she also breaks a little news: that the county is already in talks with the Steelers about using taxpayer money to fund upgrades to Acrisure, and/or helping fund an entirely new facility to replace the stadium, which opened in 2001. We’d need a roof to land a coveted Super Bowl; Innamorato says “that’s probably out of the budget.” Learn more about the sponsors of this February 18th episode: Heinz History Center Living Memory Become a member of City Cast Pittsburgh at membership.citycast.fm.
