RUSH EXCERPT:
O’ROURKE: “To be clear, you are free to believe anything that you want to in this country. To associate with whom you please, to practice your faith as you best see fit. But you are not allowed to discriminate against people in this country. To violate their civil rights or their human rights. And so what I’m talking about is making sure that we follow the letter and the Spirit of the law. And that as president I will sign into law the equality act to make sure that we do not deny the civil rights and human rights of any of our fellow Americans based on their sexual orientation or gender identity.”
