WASHINGTON – The idea that businesses cannot have religious liberty protections because they are not individuals or nonprofits is “total bunk,” Sen. Orrin Hatch, R-Utah, said.

In an interview with The Christian Post, Hatch explained that the Religious Freedom Restoration Act, which was sponsored by him back in 1993, was meant for everyone, including business owners.

“[RFRA was] meant to protect everybody and businesses are important as well. If we can impose corrupt or wrong rules on businesses, that would spread corrupt or wrong rules throughout the country,” said Hatch.
