To: The Georgia State House and Governor Brian Kemp
Tell lawmakers to stop Georgia's hate bill.
Georgia Lawmakers:
We respectfully urge you to oppose Sen. McKoon's religious "freedom" bill. It is clear that this legislation would open the door to discrimination and abuse in Georgia.
Take a stand for equality and civil rights by striking down this shameful bill.
Why is this important?
Freedom of religion is already protected by the First Amendment of the U.S. and Georgia Constitutions. According to the Association of County Commissioners of Georgia, this unnecessary, pro-discrimination bill would lead to "unending litigation" on the taxpayers' dime.
More than 200 Georgia faith leaders, Georgia's GOP former Attorney General, more than 10,000 petition signers, a bi-partisan pair of district attorneys, and scores of legal scholars have come together to oppose this hateful legislation.
We respectfully urge our lawmakers to do the same.
