MISSISSIPPI GOVERNOR SIGNS LAW PROTECTING RELIGIOUS INSTITUTIONS

Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant ignored political correctness and immediately signed a bill called the Mississippi Religious Freedom Restoration Act on Thursday. The bill, which becomes law July 1, states that the government of Mississippi cannot make the practice of religion unreasonably burdensome.

An example of this would be to restrict the construction of religious buildings by using zoning laws to keep them out, while welcoming secular businesses. The bill also states that “In God We Trust” will be added to the state’s seal.

The bill was submitted after a previous bil,l which emulated Arizona’s failed attempt to protect religious rights, was shelved. Arizona Governor Jan Brewer vetoed her state’s religious rights bill.

  3. There's already a federal law that says you can't zone out religious institutions.
