a:3:{s:16:"field_story_body";a:1:{i:0;a:2:{s:5:"value";s:1583:"<span style="font-size: larger;">According to the Detroit News, &ldquo;Senate Majority Leader Randy Richardville said Thursday he personally supports expanding Michigan&rsquo;s anti-discrimination law to cover sexual orientation.&rdquo;</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: larger;">Passage of legislation to amend the Elliot-Larsen Civil Rights Act to deal with the LGBT community&rsquo;s purported issues is questionable according to House Speaker Jase Bolger.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: larger;">Bolger&rsquo;s concerns revolver around &rdquo;finding a resolution that provides protection for personal liberties while defending religious rights,&rdquo;.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: larger;">It would be my bet that the LGBT will get their agenda addressed while the Christian Community will be unfairly vilified for their moral stand on biblically based principles.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: larger;">In the end our Governor will probably play a significant role in making this happen.</span><br />
