| Message | We are pleasantly surprised to see the HA propose this legislation, and this is certainly something we can support. Our only qualm with this legislation is that it would deprive local governments and businesses of autonomy in this area. However, given that positive descrimination is an issue that the RHP is particularly passionate about, and something that, we believe, is one of the most absurd and destructive products of political correctness, we can make a compromise in this instance. We will support this legislation. |
