Some special interest groups in Pennsylvania have tried to sell elected officials on the notion that if Pennsylvania is to compete with other states we must pass the proposed Bathroom Bills – HB 1510 & SB 974.

It is false to claim that passing the Bathroom Bills will make Pennsylvania a more competitive state. Not only that, but HB1510 and SB974 would throw away citizens’ privacy rights and hinder religious freedom.

Tell your State Senator and State Representative to oppose HB 1510 & SB 974.
