Pittsburgh City Council considering “Woke” Bill Banning Police Traffic Stops Guest: Michael Letts

The Pittsburgh City Council is considering a “woke” bill that will ban the city’s police officers from making traffic stops for minor offenses. The Tribune-Review reported, “the controversial legislation was created to make traffic stops more ‘equitable and fair.’”

National Police Association responded, calling it “a tremendous insult to the Pittsburgh police officers who risk their safety and lives for the citizens of the city,” adding, “When you diminish law enforcement, you diminish law and order.”

Weighing in on this issue is Police officer Michael Letts, founder of InVest USA, a charitable organization that provides Active Shooter Vests to police and other First Responders.

3.) Does the Pittsburgh city council understand the consequences of this just passed ordinance?

A.) Publically denounce such poor judgment and rhetoric by elected officials.

5.) What is InVestUSA doing to help officers in these communities?
