AZ Anti-Discrimination Bill Aims to Protect Gay Rights, Religion

A bipartisan group of lawmakers, business leaders, pastors and gay rights advocates came together Monday at the Arizona Capitol to push for passage of a new LGBTQ rights bill that would also protect houses of worship and other religious institutions. "This is not about special treatment; it's about equal treatment and opportunity for all. Nobody should live in fear ... simply for who they are or who they love," said state Rep. Amish Shah, a Democrat who is sponsoring the bill, during Monday's press conference.
