Wyoming GOP: Say No to SOGI Special Rights for LGBT Behaviors!


HB 230 would impose SOGI legislation on employers in Wyoming, elevating the LGBTQ community to a special class.
The nearly 500 members who were elected locally to serve at the 2018 State GOP Convention voted unanimously to adopt resolutions #9 and #10 prohibiting this kind of special treatment.
The Wyoming Republican Party urges the members of the Revenue Committee to stop this legislation from being voted out of committee for multiple reasons including:
  1. Equal protection is granted to all Wyomingites and American citizens. No group of persons should be elevated to a position of special rights or privileges.
  2. This legislation has the potential to be enforced arbitrarily and could be used to materially harm good, law abiding citizens and business owners.
  3. Business owners in Wyoming should have the ability to employ the best candidate to fill their open position and should not have to hire someone with fewer qualifications or unsuited for the job out of fear of litigation.
Since our first email this morning HB 230 has been reassigned to the Revenue Committee. 
The Wyoming Republican Party urges the members of the House Revenue Committee to stop this legislation from being voted out of committee for multiple reasons including:
Equal protection is granted to all Wyomingites and American citizens through the Constitution. No group of persons should be elevated to a position of special rights or privileges.
This legislation has the potential to be enforced arbitrarily and could be used to materially harm good, law abiding citizens and business owners.

Business owners in Wyoming should have the ability to employ the best candidate to fill their open position and should not have to hire someone with fewer qualifications or unsuited for the job out of fear of litigation.
We urge these members of the House Revenue Committee to vote “no” on HB 230 during their meeting THIS FRIDAY (tomorrow):

  1. Incredible! This blog looks just like my old one! It's on a totally different
    topic but it has pretty much the same page layout and
    design. Wonderful choice of colors!
