California state Republican aims at ‘cancel culture’ with two bills – but faces quick Dem backlash
Fox News
A Republican state lawmaker in California has unveiled two legislative proposals that are designed as counter-punches against "cancel culture."
State Sen. Melissa Melendez, R-Lake Elsinore, claims a "climate of intolerance has been established" in the Golden State – so she says she political affiliation should be a protected class under state law so residents can’t face discrimination over their political beliefs. "Cancel culture and the efforts to silence differing opinions and voices should be a growing concern for all of us." She says her "Diversity of Thought Act" would protect people from discrimination over politics when seeking housing, bank loans or employment by amending the Fair Employment and Housing Act.More Related News
