Praise The Lord, thank You, Jesus, for causing all of the states in The USA do the the same thing. For Your glory, honor, and fame and for our youth’s sake. Amen.
Shame on Gov. Asa Hutchinson!! He knows better! Thank God for Arkansas’s Republican Legislature that overrode that veto! Gov. Hutchinson, and other governors, need to understand that “we the people” are the only ones they need to represent! Big corporations do not represent “we the people’s” values. In fact, at this time, it seems like corporations don’t have ANY values, other than “woke” global values.
I am thankful that God continues to shed his light on people, corporations and politicians who are not honoring God and who don’t care about the people they’re supposed to serve! “Woe to those who call good, evil and evil,good!”
Governor Hutchinson wanted on Walmart’s board! Walmart was pushing for that Bill to pass, so the governor went along! Many of us are probably going to be shocked when God continues to show us who we can trust and who we can’t. I’m guessing that list is going to be LONG!!
Gov. Hutchinson tried to walk the line “too much” in appeasing everyone but thankfully he was rightfully denied. Do what is right… not what is expedient or portrayed as “woke” at the time. Hopefully, the governor will take heed and learn from this.
Many people in office today need to understand that this nation that was formed and established as a republic must represent the voice of everyone but “especially the vast majority of voters”. That is how our nation was set up. The push to satisfy the concerns, whims or temporary confusion of transgender “narratives” is tragic and especially when we realize that transgenders make up less than 1/2 of 1% of our population. What’s worse is certain voices within our government at every level give these confused individuals a greater priority than the important things that should come first!!
Lord God, continue to work on the hearts and minds of our leadership at all levels so that our nation can return to honoring Your commands and Your word. Amen.
Correction on my percentage (%) listed in my previous comment. It’s actually 1/8 of 1% of the population. Sorry for the error. (In other words, its even less than previously stated or what they want us to believe!)
Wow, so glad we have become the party of big government. The founding fathers are rolling in their graves.
Praise God for the Senate and the House overriding the Governor’s veto. Hopefully more states will follow. Our youth need to be protected from the abuses of transgender surgery.
