Over the weekend, Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro sat with his family to celebrate the Jewish holiday Passover, which celebrates freedom, acknowledges the agony of slavery and oppression, and shines a light on current injustices around the world.
Their holiday was interrupted by roaring flames after a man scaled a fence and set fire to their home.
Governor Josh Shapiro sent a message to America: "We have to be better than this!"
That's why we're emailing you today, Folks:. We cannot meet this moment with silence. We can no longer hear the angry shouts of politicians who seek to divide us, who demonize our neighbors, and who promote violence and hatred.
We must stand with those who seek to unite us, who understand that we are stronger when we work together, and that we are bound by the same goals of making our world a better place.
Do not wait. Please add your name to our petition today to condemn this attack and call on our leaders to tone down their rhetoric and work towards compromise and peace.
Thank you for standing with us.
