PUBLIC ADVOCATE SUPPORTERS ACTING "MISS. LAWMAKERS FEEL PRESSURE OVER RELIGION BILL"




The Associated Press is reporting:

Lawmakers in conservative Mississippi find themselves in a tug-of-war over a religious-practices bill that some say is uncomfortably similar to one recently vetoed by Arizona's Republican governor.

A group that lobbies for the state's influential Southern Baptist Convention is urging lawmakers to pass the Mississippi Religious Freedom Restoration Act.

(Public Advocate note: our organization is promoting phone calls to state legislators in several states

considering the protection of religious liberty being considered).
