Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer has signed a directive that removes a religious exemption for faith-based groups contracting with the government, possibly opening the door to forcing them to endorsing LGBT causes.
Gov. Whitmer announced Monday that she had signed Executive Directive 2019-9, an anti-discrimination measure that defines sex discrimination to include “gender identity and sexual orientation.”

Four years of this nutbag. I smell a lawsuit.
IOW, she ignores the so-called Flint Water Crisis in favor of her shallow, regurgitated partisan agenda. What a racist bitch. Thanks massmike.
An army of gay trolls follows Christian Post on Facebook, cackling over stories like this one. They love this governor because she is so (their word) “Christian.”
So was Lucretia Borgia.
This is the end, or the beginning of the end. the Left has wanted to eliminate the bill of rights, in steps.
I thought she was going to “Fix the Damn Roads!”
Wolverines, seriously, do they ever get it right?
I’d like to respond, but it’ll be a cold day in hell before I use facebook to post a repsonse.
Expect ILLINOIS to follow suit with their veto proof General Assembly and Democrat Governor.
Looks like religious discrimination. THAT’S OK with lunatic liberals
And a bunch of ads about drinking water.
Well, if Hillary won this would be matter of fact, ho hum news by now with (at least) two more leftist Supreme Court justices in place to engrave it in stone. Hopefully the fight is engaged and this evil is put down in time.
Just retired from the state soon enough that I never got to call this harridan “ boss”.

Wolverines get it right, the residents of Detroit, Flint, Saginaw and Grand Rapids don’t. And they’re just enough to nullify the upstate voters.

From the 14th Amendment:
"Section 1: All persons born or naturalized in the United States and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside. No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States [emphasis added]; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.”
"Section 5: The Congress shall have power to enforce, by appropriate legislation, the provisions of this article."
In fact, note that the 14th Amendment was recently used to reprimand UC Berkeley for abridging free speech.
UC Berkeley settles landmark free speech lawsuit, will pay $70,000 to conservative group
Patriots with religious convictions who value their constitutionally enumerated protections should also consider that Acts 22:25-29 shows that Paul used his Roman citizenship to save himself from being flogged.
Also, note that the Founding States made the Constitution’s Article I, Section 10, Clause 1 to prohibit the states from establishing protected / privileged classes which is what the Michigan governor’s action has effectively done imo.
"Article I, Section 10, Clause 1: No State shall enter into any Treaty, Alliance, or Confederation; grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal; coin Money; emit Bills of Credit; make any Thing but gold and silver Coin a Tender in Payment of Debts; pass any Bill of Attainder, ex post facto Law, or Law impairing the Obligation of Contracts, or grant any Title of Nobility [emphases added]."

All patriots in the nation may first need to come to the rescue of Michigan patriots by electing a patriot Congress in 2020 elections that will do the following.
New patriot lawmakers need to promise to do their constitutional duty to exercise Congress’s 14th Amendment powers to make penal laws that discourage activist state actors from abridging constitutionally enumerated protections, 1st Amendment religious expression and free speech in this Michigan example.
And so it starts. I fear she’ll make Jennifer Granholm look sane and statesmanlike
You know, this “gender identity” BS is for the birds, and needs to stop.
ummm..is that name from a movie?...lol?...
