I honestly never thought the day would come where she would actually step down but it just happened and I am sitting here staring at my computer screen in total shock. Thank you so much to everyone who jumped in even when things felt completely hopeless because we really pulled …

This is not a campaign slogan and this is not a tool of any political candidate. This is a petition to let current mayor of Penn Hills, Sara Kuhn, know that we will not stand for her insults, belittling comments, or screaming any longer. On March 18, 2019, Mayor Kuhn behaved in a manner unbecoming of any local official when she screamed at and threatened to remove a group of citizens from a Council meeting who had legitimate questions about corruption and mismanagement in Penn Hills. It is clear that Mayor Kuhn needs to be reminded that she serves the people, not the other way around. (Photo courtesy of Pittsburgh Tribune Review)

I honestly did not think this many people in town felt the same way I do about the shouting and the total disrespect at those meetings. It feels like the tide is finally turning and it is honestly wild to see so many names popping up on my screen because I felt so alone when I started this.

I'm a new resident in Penn Hills, and find this sort of behavior appalling. I'm signing because I want to keep media attention on the Mayor and Council. We deserve better.
The entire council should also apologize for sitting passively while a citizen was being so mistreated. Whether or not they agreed with the mayor, they should not have allowed this women to be verbally assaulted and denied her right to speak. A shameful display of a bully surrounded by cowards.
The mayors actions were so disrespectful. This is my first exposure to her and she is quite the bully. Looked like even the council was afraid of her. Just because you are loud doesn't make you right.
This absurdity needs to stop. Refusing to grant the floor to a resident whose question was approved for the agenda is completely against the Democratic process. We have a right to be heard! The only conceivable reason for the Mayor's actions is to cover up the egregious actions of our local government.
Respect, no matter what the situation is, should be done everyday with every person. As a retired educator, we would have been fired for this type of behavior. This is a disgrace for any person, especially a public servant.
I moved out of Penn Hills because of the crap like this! She needs to go find another job.
No citizen should be silenced, the mayor works for us. Corruption at any level is not acceptable, and the mayor acted inappropriately.

The mayor was out of line and disrespectful. This is unacceptable behavior for a public servant. Not only that, she disregarded the law! An apology is the least she could offer not only the woman who was belittled and screamed at, but also the residents of Penn Hills as a whole.
