What is it with these brainless liberal jackasses who are attacking Indiana for passing the exact same Religious Freedom Restoration Act that Bill Clinton signed into federal law back in 1993?
Liberals are attacking the Indiana law as something crazy, that “gives business owners license to discriminate”, but the reality is that the law is designed to stop the government from infringing on religious freedom of Americans, which happens all the time.
In fact many states already have the same law, but it was passed by a Democrat so it must be OK.
It’s only a problem when a Republican passes it. Typical Democrat Hypocrisy.
Currently, 19 states have a Religious Freedom Restoration Act (AL, CT, FL, ID, IN, IL, KS, KY, LA, MO, MS, NM, OK, PA, RI, SC, TN, TX, and VA). Ten other states have religious liberty protections that state courts have interpreted to provide a similar level of protection (AK, MA, ME, MI, MN, MT, NC, OH, WA, and WI). With some exceptions (such as Mississippi), the state versions are almost exactly the same as the federal version.
What a fucking joke! maybe if all of these brainless liberal jackoffs would do a little research before they start attacking things, they would know it was a law passed by the first black president, Bill Clinton, and a host of other Democrats. Dumb Asses!
Yesterday Governor Mike Pence of Indiana signed into law the state’s Religious Freedom Restoration Act. The action has drawn sharp criticism by people and politicians who directly oppose religious freedoms and by those who are simply unaware of the Religious Freedom Restoration Act, the federal model for Indiana’s new law.
Here is what you should know about these types of religious freedom legislation:
What is the Religious Freedom Restoration Act?
The Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA) is a federal law passed in 1993 which is intended to prevent other federal laws from substantially burdening a person’s free exercise of religion. The legislation was introduced by Rep. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) on March 11, 1993 and passed by a unanimous U.S. House and a near unanimous U.S. Senate with three dissenting votes. The bill was signed into law by President Bill Clinton.
According to the text of the law, the purposes of the RFRA are:
(1) to restore the compelling interest test as set forth in Sherbert v. Verner, 374 U.S. 398 (1963) and Wisconsin v. Yoder, 406 U.S. 205 (1972) and to guarantee its application in all cases where free exercise of religion is substantially burdened; and
(2) to provide a claim or defense to persons whose religious exercise is substantially burdened by government.
