Chamber: house
Context text: I oppose SB4 because the lack of a religious exemption. This bill will not stop the lawsuits that continue to go through our judicial system, but it will tip the scales against our religious institutions. I supported an amendment to create a religious exemption. These exemptions are common in other states’ statutes. This issue could have been resolved today in a bipartisan manner, but now will continue to be an issue that will need further debate and heartache.” Rep. Bollin, having reserved the right to explain her protest against the passage of the bill, made the following statement: “Mr. Speaker and members of the House: I am opposed to the expansion of the Elliot-Larsons Civil Rights Act because there are no protections or consideration for religious liberties or exemption. Courts have rendered that these expansions are already protected under the existing law. “ Rep. Lightner, having reserved the right to explain her protest against the passage of the bill, made the following statement: “Mr. Speaker and members of the House: The passage of this bill is something that is duplicative. There has been a court case that already identified sexual orientation and gender identity under the protected category of sex.” Rep.
