The Fed needs to crack down on bigot elected officials like this and fast. Otherwise, it is going to set a precedent that will fracture this country from the inside. And of all things to begin that fissure it's homosexual advocates discriminating against Christians and other states. Just as in Texas. Governor Abbot allows religious discrimination against homosexual families. From the article: "Texas Gov. Greg Abbott this month signed a law that allows child welfare providers to deny services because of “sincerely held religious beliefs,” a provision that critics interpreted as permitting adoption agencies to deny services to gay families." That's illegal! It is no more right than is this California decision. Just to see the impact of this AG's decision.
