The bill, which the state House of Representatives passed by a 33-27 vote Thursday, now goes to Gov. Jan Brewer, a Republican and onetime small business owner who vetoed similar legislation last year but has expressed the right of business owners to deny service.
"I think anybody that owns a business can choose who they work with or who they don't work with," Brewer told CNN in Washington on Friday. "But I don't know that it needs to be statutory. In my life and in my businesses, if I don't want to do business or if I don't want to deal with a particular company or person or whatever, I'm not interested. That's America. That's freedom."

yeah, its about time.
Sign it Jan, sign it.
This is an awesome Bill. I am sick and tired of the perverted Homos forcing their mental illness on us.
Why do we have to all of a sudden legislate freedom, our inalienable right?
Movement in the correct direction!
This is not 'anti-gay'. It is more about personal rights. Likewise, gays have the right to take their business elsewhere.
Wish our legislators in Maryland had the same courage to defend Christianity from immoral sick people who proclaim to be gay. Have we had enough yet???
