Ind. "religious freedom" bill clears House despite opposition from businesses

The Indiana House on Monday passed a "religious freedom" bill, sending it to the state Senate for a concurring vote, which could come this week. Republican Gov. Mike Pence (pictured) has indicated he supports the legislation. 

LGBT advocates and business leaders, including the CEO of Salesforce, have expressed fear that the bill's broad wording will allow anti-LGBT discrimination.
