Fern for PA
Candidate for PA House District 120
Last night wasnโt just about an ordinance. It was about protecting our quality of life.
The community showed up in force to make their voices heard, and the message was clear: if any ordinance moves forward, it must be as strong and protective as possible. Our water, our neighborhoods, our environment, and the character of the Back Mountain are worth fighting for.
Thank you to everyone who attended and spoke up. When a community comes together, its voice cannot be ignored.

We've been listening since day one, and NEPA has been loud and clear: we don't want big data centers taking over our community. ๐
ICYMI, we sat down with Capital and Main to talk about that fight and why it matters so much for our district.

Dallas Twp Data Center Ordinance Meeting is live now
When some elected officials tried to cancel and reschedule the public hearing on data centers, Fern Leard showed up and spoke out.
The people of Dallas Township have spent months researching, organizing, attending meetings, and making their voices heard. Moving the goalposts at the last minute only deepens the frustration and mistrust so many residents already feel toward government.
Fern made it clear: transparency matters, public participation matters, and the people deserve a fair and open process.
Government works best when it listens to the people, not when it tries to avoid them.
Fern will continue standing alongside residents, demanding accountability, transparency, and a process that puts the community first.

See you tonight.

This campaign is about one thing: making Pennsylvania more affordable for the people who actually live and work here. ๐
Lower utility costs, property tax relief, and getting all the bad actors out of Harrisburg. This movement has always been about people before parties. We have always been about bringing the working class together and will continue to fight to create legislation that we can feel in our everyday lives. That's what we're building. Join us.
