(Jacquelyn Martin | AP file photo) In this July 26, 2017, file photo, people with the Human Rights Campaign hold up "equality flags" on Capitol Hill in Washington. The House passed a comprehensive LGBTQ nondiscrimination bill Thursday but it could be doomed by lack of Republican support in the Senate. Utah Rep. Chris Stewart is proposing an alternative measure that he says protects both LGBTQ rights and religious liberties. Most gay rights groups oppose Stewart's bill as locking in discrimination against the LGBTQ community.
