MEMORANDUM

Posted: March 18, 2019 04:02 PM
From: Representative Jonathan Fritz
To: All House members
Subject: Sunday Music and Motion Picture Repealers
 
Our Commonwealth has thousands of regulations on the books. Many of these acts were enacted several decades ago and are simply archaic and are no longer applicable in the 21st century. In addition, the existence of these outdated laws contributes to the already complex and confusing nature of government.

To help clean up our laws, I plan to introduce two pieces of legislation that will repeal the following antiquated acts:
  • Act 308 of 1933 which regulates the playing of music on Sundays and payments for performances on Sundays.
  • Act 211 of 1935 which regulates motion picture exhibitions on Sundays.

    Please join me in co-sponsoring this legislation to provide the citizens of this Commonwealth with a more transparent and streamlined rule of law.

Document #2
