jesse's lobbying idea
What I am lobbying for is a stricter curfew instead of increasing in fines. Jail time should occur for repeating offenders who break this law. For example A first violation of Philadelphia's curfew law will result in the imposition of a $250 fine and/or community service. Parents are held responsible for the actions of their teens. The fine for the first offense of breaking curfew is $300 and up to $500 for the second offense.
People who support the curfew would be all adults for example Polices, City Council, Mayor, Parents and many other adults out there.
People who don’t support the curfew is teens who think they can disobey rules when being told.
According to love to know.com/ facts about teenager curfewsOf the 72 cities that have daytime curfews, all showed a drop in truancy and daytime burglaries.
The motivation for me choosing the Curfew policy for teens was because this has been a re- occurring issue that is always talked about on the news day and day out. Teens still disobey the rules no matter what is said to them. The majority of teens have a no care attitude and that they would do anything that they want to do in liferesources:
