3-12-18 State Legislative Update – Faith-Based Adoptions and Hate Crimes (Again)
Hate Crimes Legislation is never considered dead until the legislative session is over. And that cannot be truer concerning the resuscitation of the “hate crimes” bill. Last Thursday, in a crafty maneuver, the “hate crimes” bill found new life by placing the “hate crimes” language into SB 373. The bill passed out of the House […]
