PHOENIX - Four years after igniting a national uproar over immigration,
the Arizona Legislature has jumped into the battle over gay rights with a
piece of legislation that had opponents on Friday predicting business
boycotts against the state.
.
The legislation allows business owners with strongly held religious
beliefs to refuse service to gays, and all eyes are on Republican Gov. Jan
Brewer as she decides whether to sign the bill. A decision is likely next
week.
.
The conservative governor is already feeling pressure from the business
community to veto the bill passed late Thursday. A prominent Phoenix group
believes it would be another black eye for the state that saw a national
backlash over its 2010 immigration crackdown law, SB1070. Opponents also
pointed out that the legislation would serve as a major distraction as
Arizona prepares to host the Super Bowl next year.
.
But Brewer also will be heavily pressured to sign the bill by social
conservatives who backed it as a religious-rights bill.
.
Brewer, who is deeply religious but also pro-business, is caught somewhere
in the middle. She hasn't taken a public position on this bill.
.
Social conservatives and libertarian-minded members of the GOP believe the
legislation protects the First Amendment rights of business owners who are
expressing their religious beliefs.
.
The new legislation was passed over the shrill objections of Democrats who
said it was clearly designed to allow discrimination against gays. All but
three Republicans in the Legislature voted in favor of the bill.
.
Greater Phoenix Economic Council President and CEO Barry Broome urged the
governor to veto the bill and said four companies have already put their
plans to open facilities in Arizona on hold until they see if the bill
becomes law. The impact could mean the potential loss of "thousands of
jobs," Broome said.
