Advocates and Celebrities Call on Oklahoma Governor to Veto Anti-LGBTQ SB 1140
Human rights advocates and celebrities are calling on the governor to veto SB 1140, dangerous anti-LGBTQ legislation that would allow publicly-funded adoption agencies to discriminate against LGBTQ prospective parents, single mothers and interfaith couples, among others. Children shouldn’t pay the cost of discrimination and neither should taxpayers. That’s unacceptable.
My beloved Oklahoma. Please no. t.co/pHIlJC1VL1

Last month I happily tweeted that none of the 120 anti-LGBT bills intro’d in state legislatures this year had passed. Oklahoma’s #SB1140 broke that streak. So many kids need loving homes. @GovMaryFallin think of them & use your veto t.co/eoK9ImBma8
