2 Philadelphia City Councilmembers Introduce Bill To Prohibit Guns From City Recreation Centers, Playgrounds
PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- Two members of Philadelphia City Council have introduced a bill to prohibit guns from city recreation centers and playgrounds.
The legislation, which was introduced by Council President Darrell Clarke and Councilwoman Cindy Bass, follows a series of shootings at playgrounds and rec centers over the summer.
In order for Philadelphia to enact such a rule, companion legislation must be passed by the state legislature in Harrisburg.
