Despite a national uproar on our southwestern border over Religious Freedom Restoration Acts, Michigan Gov. Rick Snyder is staying mum about MiRFRA pending in the state Senate.
"We're waiting to see what comes from the legislature; if anything comes," says Snyder spokesman Dave Murray.
When pushed as to whether or not the governor believed a MiRFRA needed to be paired with amending the state's civil rights act, Elliott-Larsen, Murray deflected.
"The governor has spoken often about the need to discuss amending Elliott-Larsen," Murray says.
And yes, Snyder made it a point in his State of the State speech in January, but Speaker of the House Kevin Cotter rejected that discussion out of hand. He told reporters the legislature has already had that discussion. It's also a discussion that has been going on in the state legislature since 1981.
