Last week, Indiana's governor, Mike Pence, passed into law the Religious Freedom Restoration Act.  This is a state level version of the national law that gave us the atrocious Hobby Lobby decision by the Supreme Court.  However, that national law does not extend to the states, thus the push to have state level laws.

I'll talk about the blow back, the backlash, and the consequences of this new law.  I'll give my perspective on how this law affects those around me.  

Plus, your calls.
