from The Week in Philly from KYW Newsradio · host Audacy
The Pennsylvania Legislative Reapportionment Committee has made an important decision in the midst of redistricting with regards to incarcerated people. Up until now in Pennsylvania, They have been counted as residing where they were incarcerated, but now when it comes to state legislative districts they will be counted as a resident of where they live when not incarcerated. We wanted to talk more about what is called prison gerrymandering, so we caught up with Dr. Rory Kramer - Associate Professor of Sociology & Criminology at Villanova University.
