Political Quotes

“I have heard a lot today about discrimination against the LGBTQ community and them being kicked out of housing or whatever. No one wants that. But my question, Madam Speaker, to my friends on the other side was: Would they also agree that no one who disagrees with their views should be kicked out of their homes or lose their job? Should adoption agencies not be allowed to continue operating if they don't believe in that? Should houses of worship close because they continue teaching the traditional biblical values and principles of male and female? And I would suspect the answer would be no; that they should be fired, they should close, because the bill itself clearly states that religious rights and freedoms are not protected in this bill. And that is what is so dangerous. This is a bill of tyranny, where government is telling people what they must believe and punishing them if they do not believe and do not conform. This is a dangerous bill. It codifies in itself discrimination.”
