Amendment 4 was written to sound good. However, it goes too far and would have dangerous unintended consequences for many small businesses, working families and nonprofits just like ours. And while large corporations may be able to finance the cost of frequent PR campaigns and protracted court battles, our church cannot. If Amendment 4 had been the law of the land earlier this year, it may have put a stop to our dreams before they ever became reality. And our community would be worse off because of it.
