Christian Nationalist GOP Lawmaker Cites the Book of Genesis to Explain Her Vote

A far-right Christian nationalist Republican state lawmaker in Pennsylvania is citing the Bible to explain her vote against legislation.

Borowicz figured prominently in last year’s report by Mother Jones, “Christian Nationalists Are Closer Than You Think to Running America.”

In 2019, on the day the first Muslim woman was to be sworn into office in the Pennsylvania state legislature, Rep. Borowicz delivered the morning prayer, and used the name of Jesus Christ thirteen times, while asking God to “forgive us.”

Last year, Rep. Borowicz introduced a “Don’t Say Gay” bill while bragging it goes even further than Florida GOP Governor Ron DeSantis’ bill did. She also called for the Pennsylvania Secretary of Education to resign, “because LGBTQ-inclusive curricula and other resources were featured on the Pennsylvania Department of Education site,” according to WITF.

And just last month Rep. Borowicz made several false claims about COVID-19 in another speech explaining her opposition, this time to what appears to be a resolution directing a state commission to “conduct a study on the Commonwealth’s preparedness to respond to public health emergencies.”
