Multiple protections against discrimination

Multiple  protections against discrimination

The  response to the Editor’s article about the possible elimination of the Lancaster County HRC is absolutely false. There are now MULTIPLE layers of services afforded to those who think they have been discriminated against. The city (given the dire financial situation they are in, they should follow the lead of the county and terminate their commission too), the county and the state have such agencies.

Many counties within the state did not jump on this bandwagon and preferred to let the state agency do its job. The state agency is responsive and effective. Additionally, there are numerous other special interest agencies that work to protect their respective constituencies.

Thank goodness we have two commissioners are who are not interested in continuing to waste our precious tax dollars on duplicated services. I look forward to waking up tomorrow and reading that commissioners Martin and Stuckey terminated this waste of space agency.

"....I have never made it a consideration whether the subject was popular or unpopular, but whether it was right or wrong; for that which is right will become popular, and that which is wrong, though by mistake it may obtain the cry or fashion of the day, will soon lose the power of delusion, and sink into disesteem." Thomas Paine, Common Sense, on "Financing the War", March 5, 1782
