PARSOL ยฉ 2021-2025

Please note that PARSOL does not condone any form of non-consensual sex, including any sexual activities with individuals under the legal age of consent. People who commit sexual crimes should be prosecuted. That procedure should be Constitutional, fair, and consistent with the legitimate best interests of all Pennsylvanians and based on best evidence-based practices. Once an individual has completed his or her criminal sentence, their debt to society should be considered as paid. No law, whether criminal or civil in nature, should prolong or add to that sentence.
