Liberty Bells, Cannabis Testing & Mineo's Makes the NY Times
Manage episode 428482413 series 3300818
It’s the Friday news roundup! If you have a medical cannabis card, you could become part of a protected class here in Pittsburgh. Our state has a new license plate but not everybody loves it. And a local pizza place made it on a New York Times “best of” list, but not in the way you might think. It’s a week of weird news!
We always cite our sources:
- Mineo’s made it onto a New York Times “best of” list.
- Pittsburgh City Council is considering a bill that would make medical marijuana patients a protected class.
- The state’s medical marijuana law has a lot of gray area when it comes to employment protection.
- Pennsylvania has a new license plate and a lot of Pittsburghers think it’s too Philly-centric when there are plenty of state symbols that could’ve been included instead.
- If you love the new design, you can sign up to receive the plate when it debuts next year (and if you’re getting a vanity plate, just make sure it’s not too raunchy). There’s also the hellbender plate!
- City Council approved a fund to support festivals that were hurt by the pandemic, but it’s not clear where the money will come from.
- Council is also considering renaming the City-County Building’s pressroom in honor of former reporter and communications director Tim McNulty, who died last weekend of cancer.
- Celebrate the Steelers’ 91st birthday or take a tour.
