Today Family Council is releasing two new policy briefs on the recently-passed “nondiscrimination” ordinance in Fayetteville (Fayetteville Chapter 119).
The first policy brief analyzes the last-minute amendments adopted by the Fayetteville City Council prior to passing the ordinance.
The second policy brief reexamines the ordinance as a whole and the unintended consequences it carries.
Of particular importance are that the ordinance:
- Still opens churches, private schools, and religious people who own businesses to the threat of criminal prosecution;
- Opens some ministers, individually, to the possibility of criminal prosecution; and
- Still does not prevent a man who claims to be a woman from using the women’s restrooms, showers, locker rooms, or changing areas at businesses and public locations.
