Minsters join the fight for gay rights

Thursday, November 13, 2008

About a hundred religious leaders across Ohio are pushing for an expansion of the state's civil rights law that bans discrimination in housing, hiring, public accomidations, and credit. In addition to the current ban on discrimination based on race, gender, nationality, and religion, they want to add sexual orientation. It's an idea that's been around for decades but has never passed the Ohio legislature. Adn a group of other religious activists are hoping to keep it that way.

WKSU's statehouse correspondent Bill Cohen reports:

Listener Comments:

I thank the Minsters that are fighting for gay rights. Phill Burris should not speak for all gay people he has no idea on how much we love God, and our country.
