Source: Associated PressSaturday, November 5, 2016 PORTLAND, Maine (AP) — Maine Republican Gov. Paul LePage is backing Mississippi‘s appeal to reinstate a law letting merchants and government employees cite religious beliefs to deny services to same-sex couples.

The Portland Press Herald reports that LePage is listed, as an individual, in the “friend of the court” brief filed by those states. Maine voters added protections for gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people to the state’s Civil Rights Act in 2005. And Maine voters legalized same-sex marriage in 2012. In May, LePage, again as an individual, joined officials from 10 other states in suing over a federal directive that public schools should let transgender students use bathrooms or locker rooms that match their gender identity. ###Read more: http://www.lgbtqnation.com/2016/11/maine-gov-lepage-supports-mississippi-law-allowing-anti-lgbtq-discrimination/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
