Tony Perkins Praises Arkansas

"It might not be home to the Alamo, but the call to Remember Houston is fueling conservatives across the country to stop the attack on the freedom of belief through special gender identity bills. In Arkansas, state leaders made it clear that local governments, like Fayetteville, couldn't adopt these onerous special rights measure that trample freedom and drive away business. The measures have become a privacy and safety nightmare for parents, who shudder to think of their daughters sharing public restrooms, showers, and locker rooms with grown men who abuse the 'gender identity' language to prey on the opposite sex. Gov. Asa Hutchinson (R) has already said that he'll let the bill become law, which gives conservatives -- not just a victory, but a roadmap for other states to do the same. Our hats go off to Arkansas leaders for paving the way in the fight to uphold the freedom of every American, regardless of their religious views." - Hate group leader Tony Perkins, praising the Arkansas bill that bans any municipality from enacting LGBT rights ordinances.

ARKANSAS: Activists Urge Governor To Veto Statewide Ban On LGBT Rights

Last week the Arkansas legislature approved a bill that bans local municipalities from enacting LGBT rights ordinances. Gov. Asa Hutcherson, while expressing some discomfort with the bill, has said that he will allow it to become law without his signature. Local activists yesterday launched a social media campaign which demands that Hutcherson veto the bill. Tweet Hutcherson here and visit his Facebook page here. Activists request that your messages be respectful.
