Religious Freedom Conscious Exemption Gets Tenitive House Approval
April 8th, 2015 by Mike Vasilinda
Legislation is moving through the Capitol allowing adoption agencies to deny adoptions to gay couples based on religious freedom. A broader bill in Indiana has created a national outcry. Today, Governor Rick Scott was asked if he feared a similar outcome in Florida. His response not directly on point.
“We have a great state. We’re probably the best melting pot in the world. 250 languages are spoken here. We’ll have over 100 million tourists here. 250,000 people moved here last year and it looks like we’ll have even more people moving here. This is a state that people want to move to. We are doing the right thing in our state”
The measure received tentative approval in the state House today. It could be voted upon for the final time tomorrow.
