| Subject: Idiotic Faggot in Government: Texas state lawmaker derails conservative-backed bill to 'Save Chick-Fil-A' Sat May 11, 2019 5:48 am | |
| An openly gay member of the Texas House derailed a bill backed by religious conservatives to block communities from taking “adverse actions” against Chick-Fil-A or other businesses. State Rep. Julie Johnson (D) used a procedural maneuver to shut down the debate over the so-called Save Chick-Fil-A bill late Thursday, The Corpus Christi Caller Times reported. "Hopefully, this is the day ... discrimination against the LGBT community dies in Texas," said Johnson, a freshman member. The bill was introduced by Republican state Rep. Matt Krause to prohibit cities and other governmental entities from taking "adverse actions" against businesses that publicly espouse religious convictions. Advocates argued that the bill could be used to target LGBT groups.
