Our Rev. Jen Raffensperger spoke at a rally in the state Capitol to warn against the expected passage of legislation that would put an anti-abortion amendment to the state constitution up for referendum.
“We know that when abortion care is not available, women die, and we also know that prohibitions on abortion will not curtail the number of abortions taking place, they will simply make abortions more dangerous and life threatening,” said Rev. Jen Raffensperger.

UUCYork honors MLK Day through nonviolence
UUCYork and UCCHeidelberg held a vigil on Jan 15, 2023 to talk about Dr. King's message of healing faith and to honor the lives of those lost to gun violence.
Our own Rev. Jen Raffensperger said of the event, "I think that when you ground your faith in a vision of a better world, such as what Dr. King did then hopefully enough reflection will compel you to act."

York County senator grabs protester outside $1K-per-plate fundraiser in Harrisburg. (Read the full article by Bethany Rodgers)
Sen. Mike Regan of York County grabbed a 69-year-old climate demonstrator who walked with a cane, threw him to the ground, and steped over him to enter a restaurant — where Sen. Scott Martin, R-Lancaster, was hosting a $1,000-per-plate event.
"I was just aghast," said Carol Stowell, a UUCYork member who was part of Tuesday's protest and witnessed the encounter. "I just couldn't believe that a senator would behave that way." Stowell, who has spent years pushing for a gift ban in Harrisburg, said reform advocates have repeatedly tried to work directly with lawmakers but feel stonewalled. |
