‘Own what you are’: CNN host exposes Indiana law backer as gay conversion therapy promoter
CNN host Chris Cuomo on Tuesday advised the leader of a so-called pro-family group to own his anti-gay agenda after he supported an Indiana law that would allow businesses to discriminate against LGBT people.
More often than not, what seems to be the momentum for this Indiana law are Christians who are a majority certainly not a minority in this county saying that doing business with certain types of people is offensive to their religion, Cuomo pointed out during an interview with Indiana Family Institute Policy Director Ryan McCann.
The outcry is coming from organizations like yours that are Christian based with an animus toward the LGBT community, the CNN host added. Own who and what you are. Theres nothing wrong with that, youre allowed to believe it. But youre not about [fighting against religious discrimination of] Native Americans.
McCann, however, refused to acknowledge Cuomos assertion that the Religious Freedom Restoration Act would be used to discriminate against LGBT people. But he also dodged questions about whether his group would support making sexual orientation a protected class.
