Every American should be concerned when any American’s religious freedom is trampled upon, which is what this legislation would do today. The Supreme Court very carefully said, that you should not trample on religious freedom in America unless there is a compelling reason to do it, and if you have to do it, it has to be as light as possible. The Hobby Lobby decision carefully upheld that… Any time any American’s freedom is trampled upon, every American should be deeply concerned.”
