    Sen. McKoon’s five-minute Senate floor ‘religious freedom’ bill fake-out

    Atlanta
    April 2, 2015
    State Sen. Josh McKoon (R-Columbus) turned heads (and quickened pulses) on the Senate floor this afternoon when he attempted to attach SB 129, his so-called “religious freedom” bill, to another House bill under consideration. And then he pulled the amendment admitting it had nothing to do with the bill. Well okay then.
