Indianapolis City Council aims to draw a line in the sand: “No thanks, RFRA”
The members of Indianapolis’ City Council are on the hustle to pass a resolution that will choke out the Religious Freedom Restoration Act’s damaging new policies. Drafted by Council Vice President John Barth, the proposal is written under the notion that RFRA is “not a true representation of our city as a welcoming and inclusive place.”
The measure states:
“The city of Indianapolis is committed to protect the rights of all citizens, regardless of sexual orientation, race, gender identification, ethnicity, religion, or creed, and has already passed bipartisan legislation to provide protections.”
The proposal goes on to highlight how RFRA removes protections for Indiana’s citizens from health care to domestic violence, not to mention workplace rights and their overall comfort and safety while they’re in the state.

So many thanks to the Indianapolis City Council and props/good luck to PROP 15!
