Washington Republicans, Don't Legalize Discrimination!
- by: Care2 Team
- recipient: Washington State Republicans
A 2006 law in Washington made it illegal to discriminate against people based on their sexual orientation, but that isn't stopping Washington Republicans from trying to legalize discrimination against the LGBT community.
12 Republican state senators want businesses to be able to refuse services based not only on their religious beliefs, but also on their "philosophical" beliefs or "matters of conscience".
All citizens of Washington should be treated the same, regardless of who they love. Please tell Washington Republicans not to legalize discrimination!
Dear Washington State Republicans,
You all are pushing a bill that would allow businesses to discriminate against people based on their sexual orientation, despite the fact that a 2006 law made it illegal to do just that.
The bill wouldn't only allow businesses to discriminate based on their religious beliefs, but also on "matters of conscience" and "philosophical beliefs".
Everyone deserves equal treatment. Please do not legalize discrimination.
Thank you for your time.
