UT: Poll Says 60% Support Anti Discrimination Laws Statewide for Gays

A new poll shows some 69 percent of Utahns think state lawmakers and Gov. Gary Herbert should push to pass statewide anti-discrimination laws to protect gays. The Deseret News/KSL TV poll of 408 Utahns comes after the Salt Lake City Council passed ordinances banning discrimination against gays in housing and employment. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints backed the measures, which include exemptions for religious organizations. In the poll, 69 percent of respondents said the Legislature should follow Salt Lake City's lead. Just 28 percent opposed an anti-discrimination proposal.
