A New York town clerk is refusing to turn her back on her faith and comply with the state’s new homosexual “marriage” law.
Jason McGuire, executive director of New Yorkers for Constitutional Freedoms (NYCF), tells OneNewsNow that Laura Fotusky feels she would be “compromising her moral conscience by licensing same-sex couples.”
“She has realized that she is going to have to choose between her faith or supporting her family — between God or her job,” McGuire explains. “In light of this recent enacted legislation regarding same-sex marriage, she said, ‘I cannot put my name on those marriage licenses’ and has been forced to resign her position.”
Same-gender “marriage” becomes legal in New York on July 24.
“I believe that at that point, there will be many more people who will realize — whether it’s a limo driver, a caterer, a D.J., photographer, town clerks [or] justices — [they] will come face-to-face with the fact that they’ve got to choose between their faith or supporting their families,” the NYCF executive director suggests. “So I think we’ll be looking at a lot of religious freedom cases in New York State.”
McGuire is calling on Christians throughout the country to pray for Fotusky and all other faithful believers who will be negatively impacted by New York’s new marriage law.
