Politician who slammed Ramadan message under fire for slur
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}A Pennsylvania politician who apologized for criticizing a church that wished Muslims a "blessed Ramadan" is under fire again — this time for a slur referring to Mexicans on his Twitter page.
The York Daily Record reports (http://bit.ly/2mAYLuu ) Spring Grove school board member Matthew Jansen insists his Twitter account was hacked.
More than 50 people attended Monday night's school board meeting to demand his resignation.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Jansen acknowledged in February that he might have used the slur previously. But he says he's had a change of heart and would never use that language now.
Last summer, he left an angry phone message at a church in his neighborhood over a sign wishing a "blessed Ramadan" to Muslims.
He later apologized and attended a worship service at a Harrisburg mosque.
