Connecticut Gov. Dannel Malloy signed an executive order Monday to ban state-funded travel to Indiana as a protest to that state’s new religious objections law, which critics are slamming as discriminatory.
Malloy, who called the legislation “disturbing, disgraceful and outright discriminatory” against the LGBT community, according to the Hartford Courant, also suggested it would be “a wise choice” to move next year’s Final Four of the NCAA college basketball tournament out of Indiana.
"When new laws turn back the clock on progress, we can’t sit idly by. We are sending a message that discrimination won’t be tolerated." -DM
You go, Gov! I am so glad I live where I do.
