Thousands call for Rep. Brian Sims to resign over abortion protest videos as pro-life rally launched in Philadelphia
The outcry surrounding Pennsylvania state Representative Brian Sims’ haranguing of anti-abortion rights protesters outside a Planned Parenthood clinic continues as thousands call for him to resign and a “Pro-Life Rally Against Bullying” event is organized in response.
“Elected officials should not use their positions of power to harass citizens who are peacefully protesting. I hope our state and federal prosecutors will undertake review of this matter with the seriousness it deserves and uphold the role for which they were elected to, which demands holding people accountable for their actions,” DiGiorgio said in a statement.
“It's bad enough that a grown man would be trying to dox three teenage girls. It's even worse that he is an elected official,” wrote Joe Garecht on the fundraiser’s description page. “This is a peaceful, winsome demonstration of brotherly love to sidewalk counselors, women, and Rep. Brian Sims,” the group wrote in the Facebook event page for the demonstration. “We hope more lives are saved. Changed minds save lives.”
