With recently failed attempts to enact discrimination laws against LGBT persons under the guise of “religious freedom” in Kansas, Arizona, Idaho, South Dakota and Tennessee, you don’t have to be a rocket scientist to recognize a concerted effort to roll back LGBT civil rights gains. Right now, Joe Blow and his wife can walk into any business and get the services they want. But if Joe and his husband walk into the same business, the Christian right-wingnuts want to make it legal to discriminate against them by declining services that would be available to any straight couple.

But these things must be done delicately. WWJD? More to the point, does what does a particular Fortune 500 financial services organization do?
