Staff Analysis of the Legislation

This legislation prohibits the state and local governments from taking any disciplinary action against a person/employee for believing, speaking or acting in accordance with a belief that marriage is or should be recognized as the union of one man and one woman or that sexual relations are immoral outside of wedlock.  Persons aggrieved by having these beliefs violated may go to court to obtain special damages, a declaratory judgment, or injunctive or other relief against the government.
