The governor of Montana has signed an executive order that will protect LGBT state employees from discrimination.
On Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, Gov. Steve Bullock announced at a press conference that it is time to “recommit to King’s values of compassion and equity” by prohibiting discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity.
The order expands prohibitions against discrimination to also include pregnancy and military service, reports the Associated Press.
The executive order goes into effect immediately, and will protect state workers, contractors, and subcontractors from discrimination in employment as well as provision of government services. It also calls for diversity programs designed to prevent harassment.

What did MLK think about gay people?
Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. was writing an advice column in 1958 for Ebony magazine when he received an unusual letter.
“I am a boy,” an anonymous writer told King. “But I feel about boys the way I ought to feel about girls. I don’t want my parents to know about me. What can I do?”
In calm, pastoral tones, King told the boy that his problem wasn’t uncommon, but required “careful attention.”
“The type of feeling that you have toward boys is probably not an innate tendency, but something that has been culturally acquired,” King wrote. “You are already on the right road toward a solution, since you honestly recognize the problem and have a desire to solve it.”
“The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.”
” Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.”
Let us pray the good people of Montana correct this folly.
the Governor is mocking God and the people are the ones who voted the evil man in and now they are getting what they voted for, it’s the people fault this has happened even in a state such as Montana. This sickness and depravity has even reached into states such as this with low populations. I would state emphatically that are nation is finished with and God is raining down judgement on us, and his judgement will get harsher with every filthy perverted law these evil demoniancs can think up.
