Late last night, my legislative email account and at least 99 others (many of which are Republican members), received this email from a self-proclaimed Republican committee person from Hazleton, Pennsylvania. 1/
This message is the most vile, racist, sexist, anti-Semitic, bigoted, homophonic email I have ever received. But what is even more alarming is I have yet to see a single elected member of the @PAGOP reply and/or denounce this message. 2/
That is because this sort of abhorrent messaging is now a part of their platform. This is what “Make America Great Again” meant & to see the complacency from the @PAGOP makes me sick to my stomach. What happened to being the shining city on the hill? The silence is deafening. 3/
To be clear, this definition of America is NOT accurate. America is beautiful *because of* our diversity, inclusion, empathy, and progress. Our differences should always be celebrated, not denounced. We must not move backward. 4/
We will NOT move backwards. I vow to do everything I can to fight against this message and ensure we realize the America we ALL deserve. #HateWontWin

This AM, the @PAHouseGOP begins their shameless tirade to retain power by passing a “Citizens Legislative Commission” that is really a guise for the General Assembly to draw our own maps. They’re currently ramming through a constitutional amendment at an 8am committee hearing. /1
This is after @RepGrove introduced the bill with no co-sponsorship memo *just last week.* For those not following, here is a recap of why they’re making such an egregious attempt at a power grab. /2
The @PAHouseGOP gerrymandering our maps in 2012 to ensure their power. This year is a redistricting year. The legislative reappointment committee led by non-partisan academic drew fair maps to reflect the population & demographic changes in PA. /3
