Expect the worst from these bills and tell everyone that Missouri is dangerously close to legalizing discrimination.

Just as an update to the Senate committee hearing that was held on Senator Brad Lager's bill SB 188 to legalize discrimination:

• The hearing was packed and testimony was reportedly cut short for some of those in opposition while those in favor testified without interruption;
• Media coverage still seems to be limited to a very bland review of fix the 6 Missouri Chamber of Commerce Position rather than the moral, social, and constitutional issues of will discrimination be tolerated; and
• As soon as the list of those who testified in favor of the house and senate bills are available, they will be distributed.
