Seventeen backers of Rep. Lynn Luker’s religious freedom expansion bill – the same bill that drew more than 500 opponents to the Capitol last week – lined a Capitol hallway this morning, some of them holding signs saying “Thank you, Rep. Luker.” The sign-holders said they weren’t with any organization, and just wanted to support Luker and the bill, which is now awaiting amendments in the House.
