Look: Honey Maid Has A Message About Anti-Gay ‘Religious Freedom’ Laws
The very inclusive makers of Honey Maid graham crackers have a strong history of promoting inclusion and diversity. It just got even better.
Given the national firestorm ignited when Indiana Governor Mike Pence signed his Religious Freedom Restoration Act into law last week, maybe now we should take a moment and have a time out.Â
Honey Maid a year ago in March released a beautiful video ad trumpeting their campaign called “This Is Wholesome.” That of course sparked outrage from One Million Moms. So then Honey Maid did just about the best thing anyone has ever done with hate.
Now, in response to all the anti-gay “religious freedom” laws, like Indiana’s, and the bill in Arkansas Governor Hutchinson is about to decide on, Honey Maid put out this simple but effective statement:
We believe love is always welcome. #Indiana #ThisIsWholesome pic.twitter.com/R99HduZy7U
