I might bend, but I will NEVER break because it's in my nature as a strong woman.
Freedom does not mean being free of something, but to be free to do something.
To exclude groups of people because of their faith, this isn't worthy of the free state in which we live. It isn't compatible with our essential values.

...climate change is accelerating. It threatens our well being, our security, and our economic development. It will lead to uncontrollable risks and dramatic damage if we do not take resolute countermeasures.
