The New York Daily News reports:
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) is declaring war on the Equality Act, calling the effort to defend LGBT rights an attack on people of faith.
The far right-wing lawmaker says the act will force Christians to approve abortions and would treat transgender people the same as those born as a boy or a girl. She also asserted it uses protecting gay rights as a smokescreen to prevent religious people from living according to their beliefs.
“It has everything to do with attacking God & believers,” Greene said. Greene called the act “disgusting” and asserted it attacks women’s rights, without elaborating.

The so called #EqualityAct is evil.
Disguised as #LGBT rights, it expands governmental regulatory reach that destroys women’s rights, religious rights, and rights of the unborn.
It is a direct attack on God’s creation, He created us male and female.https://t.co/2YJnepwlN5

Just to make myself clear,
I WILL BE VOTING NO TO THE DISGUSTING, IMMORAL, AND EVIL #EqualityAct!!!
It has nothing to do with stopping discrimination against the LGBT community, that could be done easily without this.
It has everything to do with attacking God & believers.
