Miley Cyrus, Apple CEO Tim Cook, and former NBA star Charles Barkley are
just a few of the high-profile figures condemning a law signed by Indiana
Gov. Mike Pence on Thursday, which critics say will give businesses the
option to discriminate against LGBT customers on religious grounds. Here's
a roundup of notable people and groups that have joined the rising
backlash, including athletes, celebrities, leaders of Fortune 500
companies, and even city and state governments:
.
Athletes: A few days before Pence signed the Religious Freedom Restoration
Act, Jason Collins, the first openly gay active player in the NBA, tweeted
his opposition, asking whether he would face discrimination when he visits
Indiana for the NCAA's Final Four. Barkley, who has urged the NCAA to pull
the tournament out of the state, said in a statement, "Discrimination in
any form is unacceptable to me."

Celebrities: Ashton Kutcher, Star Trek actor George Takei, Larry King, and
columnist Dan Savage have all criticized the Religious Freedom Restoration
Act, while Miley Cyrus went as far as calling Pence an "asshole" on
Instagram. The band Wilco announced that they were canceling their May 7
show in Indianapolis because of the law, which they described as "thinly
disguised legal discrimination." Parks and Recreation actor Nick Offerman
said Tuesday that he was scrapping a scheduled stop in the city as part of
his 2015 summer tour.

Conventions: Gen Con, a gaming convention that brings an estimated $50
million to Indianapolis annually, has threatened to pull out of the state.
