A bill under consideration in the Nebraska Legislature would extend anti-discrimination protection to include sexual orientation and gender identity. Alliance Defending Freedom advocates for religious freedom and testified against LB 173. Legal Counsel Kellie Fiedorek (fie-DORE-ick) says this law undermines the freedom of employers.

She says there a lot of questions to be answered before a vote.

Groups opposing the bill fear that this is another way government can dictate on how a business operates.
