New Allegheny County Jail tablets expand access, connection

New tablets at Allegheny County Jail are giving incarcerated people another way to stay connected with loved ones while providing access to educational, wellness and legal resources. The jail distributed the devices as the final step in its communication contract with GTL/ViaPath, according to a community announcement. The contract runs through March 2029 and provides the tablets without cost to Allegheny County taxpayers. The ability to communicate is a central part of the program. Incarcerated people receive 30 minutes of free phone calls each day, while the tablets provide another way to communicate and access services. “Because we know that it is important for individuals who are incarcerated to maintain contact with their loved ones, we prioritized affordable communication by significantly reducing fees and incorporating more free minutes per person per day,” Interim Warden Connie Clark said. Calls beyond the free 30 minutes cost 3.5 cents per minute, down from 16 cents. Video visitation costs 7 cents per minute, down from 25 cents. Tablet replacement costs dropped from $350 to $255. Tablets provide more than communication The significance of the devices also extends beyond keeping in touch with family and friends, according to the announcement. The jail launched its tablet

Allegheny County Adopts Employer-Funded Paid Parental Leave Law

On October 22, 2026, Allegheny County Executive Sara Innamorato signed legislation to establish a mandatory paid parental leave program, which also expands Allegheny County’s paid sick leave law. Allegheny County, Pennsylvania is the first locality to adopt its own paid parental leave law in the absence of any state-level mandate. The new law further stands out in that it does not fund the program with payroll tax contributions, but instead requires employers to bear the full cost of funding the required leave benefits. As enacted, the legislation is not as far-reaching as originally proposed (and described in our previous blog post); an extended public comment period, a public hearing, and “ an unprecedented flood of written comments ” from community business leaders led to compromises that that narrowed the scope of the legislation. The enacted legislation reduced the paid parental leave benefit from 18 weeks to 12 weeks, narrowed the employee eligibility requirements, and created a small business exemption. Below is an overview of what the new law will require of employers when it takes effect, just under a year from now. Paid Parental Leave Requirements The new paid parental leave component of Article XXIV of the Allegheny County Health
