PA State Lawmaker Apologizes For ‘Nazis Were Just Doing Their Jobs’ Remark

HARRISBURG, Pa. (AP) — A Pennsylvania state lawmaker protesting a gas pipeline project in her neighborhood is apologizing for saying “Nazis were just doing their jobs too” in response to complaints that demonstrators were preventing workers from doing their jobs. Democratic Rep. Danielle Friel Otten said Thursday on Twitter that her language was insensitive and that she sincerely apologized. She earlier had accused oil-and-gas industry consultants of stirring up outrage and said the fight wasn’t with the workers.
