4. Hopefully this will go the way it did the last 3 or 4 years

I can't remember how many times we have fought this.

Every year they either don't get out of committee or it gets passed with all the discrimination scrubbed out of it.

EVERY SINGLE YEAR we have to deal with RFRA bills.

Still the first thing out of the house is this with tons and tons of discriminatory rhetoric. They never learn. The authors change names but the bills are essentially written by a couple of them and one of the very worst is a Democrat.

The stuff going through our legislature has taken a huge turn from crazy to painfully painfully off the charts bizarre.

Discrimination sure riled up the people, thank god for activism and upset citizens.

I don't know if Susan Wagle actually was going to put this through or not. Loud outcry and objection by the Chamber of Commerce was enough to make certain it did not sail through as is.

The House is trying to revive it but I am not terribly worried yet.
