Indianapolis City-County Council approves anti-RFRA resolution

[NuclearDem]

INDIANAPOLIS -- The Indianapolis City-County Council approved a resolution opposing the Religious Freedom Restoration Act.

Crowds cheered after the resolution was approved 24 to 4 at Monday night's meeting.

The resolution, drafted by Council Vice President John Barth (D), states that RFRA is "not a true representation of our city as a welcoming and inclusive place" and is bad for local businesses.

Proposal 120 also encourages the Indiana State Legislature to amend the civil rights section of the Indiana Code to include sexual orientation or to specifically exempt locally enacted human rights ordinances from Senate Enrolled Act 101 (RFRA).

2. Geez...are republicans stupid!

I love this part!! "Proposal 120 also encourages the Indiana State Legislature to amend the civil rights section of the Indiana Code to include sexual orientation or to specifically exempt locally enacted human rights ordinances from Senate Enrolled Act 101 (RFRA)."

In an attempt to force their religious views on everyone....they lost what they had before.

Just like the idiot gun owners who demonstrated their right to open carry...managed to get themselves banned from every business establishment.
