Arkansas, Indiana governors sign amended religious freedom laws

Ver todas las etiquetas

The governors of Arkansas and Indiana on Thursday quickly signed revised versions of their respective religious freedom laws, hoping to quell a national uproar that united business leaders and gay rights activists who fought the measures...[saying] that the laws would allow discrimination against gays and lesbians who could be deprived of goods and services in the name of religious belief... [Indiana's] amendment offers some protection against discrimination based on sexual orientation or gender identity...[but] stops short of being a separate anti-discrimination law, which some...had sought... The Human Rights Campaign, a national advocacy group for gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people, said more battles would come. [Refers to opposition to provisions allowing discrimination & support for amended laws by Apple, Walmart, Eli Lilly, Salesforce, NCAA]
