The Joshua Conant Ordinance

Port Huron City Council passed “The Joshua Conant Ordinance” on Monday, requiring security staff to be trained on positional asphyxiation. The move follows the tragic death of Joshua Conant, who died after an altercation with bouncers outside Roche Bar in November of ’23. Conant’s mother fought tirelessly for the rule change. The ordinance was celebrated by the community, with hopes it will prevent future deaths. Local officials, including Rep. Joe Pavlov, plan to push for a state version of the law, drawing on their own personal losses to support the cause.
