The governor of Arizona vetoed a bill that passed both the state Senate and House, that would allow business owners to refuse service to customers on the grounds of religious beliefs. This bill caused an uproar over the hypothetical effect on LGBT rights that it would have, and many people and companies urged Governor Jan Brewer to veto the bill.
We learned about this when we studied checks and balances and separation of powers.
I believe that this bill could lead to heavy discrimination, and I am glad that it was vetoed.
