Today, the Human Rights Campaign (HRC), America’s largest lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) civil rights organisation, and Freedom Oklahoma, the state organisation working to advance equality for LGBT Oklahomans, strongly condemned the introduction of a new anti-transgender bill in the Oklahoma State Legislature.
Following a vote today by Mississippi Senate Judiciary A to advance H.B 1523, Human Rights Campaign (HRC) Mississippi called on the Mississippi Senate to put a stop to the discriminatory anti-LGBT bill. If passed, H.B. 1523 would allow individuals, religious organisations 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 school, in their family life and more. The bill passed out of committee by a voice vote.
Bill is one of twelve other anti-LGBT bills under consideration in the Mississippi State Legislature this session.
