Buttigieg May Appear Tolerant, But He Reportedly Supports Legislation That Could Target Religious People

For all his supposed tolerance, Democratic presidential contender Pete Buttigieg has, according to the Human Rights Campaign (HRC), supported the Equality Act, which would endanger the constitutionally guaranteed freedoms of every citizen, including their religious freedoms, as the Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF) points out.

Buttigieg, who is gay and married to another man, is scheduled to keynote the Human Rights Campaign’s annual dinner on May 11. HRC issued a press release on Tuesday which stated, “Buttigieg is an outspoken advocate of the Equality Act—critically important, bipartisan legislation that would finally provide clear protections against discrimination for LGBTQ people across the country,” as The Washington Free Beacon reports.
