Okla. lawmaker pushes trio of anti-LGBT bills

NewsOn6.com - Tulsa, OK - News, Weather, Video and Sports - KOTV.com | Oklahoma state Rep. Sally Kern, a Republican, introduced three bills late last week that opponents say would drastically curtail LGBT rights in the state. 

Kern, who once referred to the state's gay community as "an enemy who wants to destroy us," is seeking to defund the entities responsible for giving marriage licenses to same-sex couples, as well as prohibit restrictions on LGBT "conversion therapy" and permit business owners to refuse service to LGBT patrons.
