This kind of legislation was dead in Georgia until it suddenly passed last week.
I think it passed literally as a reaction to the March 1st primary results where the corporatist backed candidate, Rubio was the big loser and Donald Trump the big winner with Ted Cruz finishing second.
The GOPe is desperate to reconnect with the base and I hope Governor Deal signs the bill and Ted Cruz demands he do so along with Donald Trump.
Trump is gay-friendly.
