Laura Hancock, [Wyoming] House committee opposes bill allowing ministers to refuse gay marriages, Star-Tribune
A bill that would have reaffirmed the right of religious officials to decline marrying same-sex couples was defeated Tuesday morning in a state legislative committee.
But some members of the House Judiciary Committee said they opposed it because they favor instead a bill that allows all people to decline performing services based on their religion and freedom of conscience, including issuing marriage licenses.
In October, a judge struck down Wyoming’s gay marriage ban.
