Only in America : Mississippi House Passes Discriminatory “Religious Liberty Accommodations Act”
Today, the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) Mississippi blasted the state House of Representatives for advancing H.B. 1523. Sponsored by House Speaker Philip Gunn, this vile piece of legislation will allow individuals, religious organizations and private associations to use religion to discriminate against lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) Mississippians, in some of the most important aspect of their lives, including at work, at schools, in their family life and more. The bill was passed by a vote of 80-39, and now heads to the Senate.
