“Thou shalt not travel to Mississippi” demand the governors of Washington, New York, and Vermont. Mississippi’s new legislation is believed to be mean spirited and discriminatory and thus these governors feel it is in their power to limit travel of their own citizenry.
Reminiscent of the big brother behavior of the Mayor of San Fransisco, who made similar demands of city employees banning travel to North Carolina, these governors are overstepping their authority.
The mayoral panties are all twisted up because North Carolina has passed legislation preventing anti-discrimination protection for lesbian, gay and transgender people thus nullifying a Charlotte ordinance that allowed for transgender bathroom use of the opposite gender.
City workers were banned by the Lee from “non-essential” travel to North Carolina, Truth and Action reports.
The Mississippi legislation is viewed as discriminatory against the LGBT community, yet in actuality it protects all citizens of Mississippi from government over reach by protecting “sincerely held religious beliefs and moral convictions of individuals, organizations and private associations.”
Citizens of Mississippi who hold religious convictions are given the freedom to exercise their faith without repudiation. Under this legislation, people of faith will be protected if they deny wedding services to same-sex couples. It also allows employers to take their religious beliefs to inform such work place values such as dress code and bathroom or locker access.
The legislation does not remove civil rights from any one group, but strengthens the First Amendment for all.
Lot of hot here from these ridiculous governors! No travel to these states! Really? The American people need to push back on this c**p!
No one can ban you from going to any state you choose
THIS IS WHAT lIBERALS CALL FREEDOM.
What would you do if a tranvestite exposed himself to your young daughter. They have no right to use the other genders bathrooms or locker rooms. It is a perversion to think it is ok to be a man but want to be a women and use a women’s locker room.
I know exactly what I am… and it’s not a hateful person that’s scared of anything and everything that’s different than me…
Good way to put it! Hi five!
Um isn’t there an amendment allowing interstate travel state to state
Governors in New York, Vermont, and Washington have banned state employees from most work-related travel to Mississippi after the southern state enacted a discriminatory anti-LGBT law on Tuesday.
The very people we don’t want down here! Hell, only a couple of days and this bill has done exactly what we wanted. Pass more Governor! Intolerant liberals will purge themselves. Hahaha
