Spring Hill Review
October 2004
[Gubernatorial
candidates Dino
Rossi and Christine Gregoire were questioned as follows]
"In the 2004 legislative session, Governor Locke strongly
supported
HB 1809, which would expand Washington's discrimination clause to
include
sexual orientation, and include all workplaces. Under HB 1809,
churches,
synagogues, religious prechools, and private schools that do not
believe
that homosexual or other sexual practices are consistent with
their faith
could be forced by the State to hire those who disagree with
their beliefs.
In addition, faith-based employers could be subject to lawsuits
if an
individual with sexual orientation differing from the tenets of
their faith
were terminated. As governor, would you support or oppose HB
1809?
Dino Rossi: "I do not support forcing
religious institutions to adopt
policies that go against their faith."
Christine
Gregoire:
"I strongly believe that it should be against the law to
discriminate in employment, public accommodations, housing,
credit, etc.
based on an individual's real or perceived sexual orientation or
gender
identity/expression."
