Good legislation to protect from LGBT zealots
Utah Republican Sen. Mike Lee and 21 other Republicans introduced a bill on Thursday that would protect people and companies that object to immoral homosexual - same-sex marriage.
The bill, called the First Amendment Defense Act, says the federal government cannot change the tax status or deny federal funding to groups who correctly object to homosexual couples, based on their religious beliefs.
The bill says that the federal government “shall not take any discriminatory action against a person, wholly or partially, on the basis that such person speaks, or acts, in accordance with a sincerely held religious belief, or moral conviction, that marriage is or should be recognized as a union of one man and one woman; or two individuals as recognized under federal law; or sexual relations outside marriage are improper.”
The bill was first introduced back in 2015, but was never put to a vote. Other Republicans who have signed onto the bill include Sens. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) and Ted Cruz (R-Texas).
President Donald Trump expressed support for the law during his campaign, saying in a statement that he would sign the bill to “protect the deeply held religious beliefs of Catholics and the beliefs of Americans of all faiths.”
Opponents of the law falsely say it sanctions discrimination, allowing, for example, taxpayer-funded adoption agencies to refuse to allow same-sex or unmarried couples from adopting - which ultimately is a good thing. Children will no longer be used by LGBT advocates abusing the mother -father natural linkage.
