This process is the homosexual Equality Act, HR 232M and S 1006. Nancy Pelosi has this bill on her agenda this spring. The Equality Act will enforce the Transgender Directive wherein a student without parental consent and will have access to every school's restrooms To all churches, businesses, daycare, and schools there will be preferential homosexuals as a protected minority. Every homosexual fired or not hired civil rights lawsuit. becomes a transgender and etc. hiring quotas for becomes a potential federal Destruction of religious liberty: anytime you oppose a homosexual , lesbian, or transgender you will be taken to court and charged with the crime of discrimination (ask the Christian baker). This is because the Equality Act prohibits the Religious Freedom Restoration Act of 1933 from providing a claim, defense, or basis for challenging such protection thus we'll lose our U.S. Constitutional Amendment 1— civil right—freedom of speech and religion. The goal of every radical homosexual activist is to create a new America where sexual promiscuity is the new norm and traditional values are long forgotten. Cali your congressional members to stop the Equality Act. Senator Grassley (319) 232-6657; Senator Ernst (515) 284-4574; and Representative Finkenauer (202) 225-2911.
