Governor Cox

SB 296 (Antidiscrimination and Religious Freedom Amendments)

Libertas Institute opposes this bill.

This bill would prevent employers or landlords from discriminating against a person because of their "gender identity" or "sexual orientation." This proposal, along with existing anti-discrimination law, is a violation of property rights.

Libertas Institute opposes this bill. The government has no authority to violate the freedom of association to dictate to a property owner with whom he or she must share or use their own property.
