Alameda County supervisors will vote Tuesday on a proposal to make it illegal to watch a sideshow.
The proposed law would make it illegal to watch a sideshow, with spectators potentially facing arrest and penalties. The topic will be discussed and voted on during today's meeting of the Alameda County Board of Supervisors.
Alameda County Supervisor Nate Miley and Alameda County Sheriff Yesenia Sanchez collaborated to draft the proposed ordinance. They argue that it is necessary to crack down on illegal sideshows. The First Amendment Coalition wrote a letter to the Alameda County Board of Supervisors, opposing the ordinance on the grounds that it violates people’s constitutionally-protected rights.
