There is no one in the USA that can point to any of the social engineering laws of the Clinton years as valid today. This is just the next one to fall.
In recent years, previous to the Supreme Court decisions, President Clinton has come out to state, these laws are wrong for today.
President Obama has completely reversed Don't Act Don't Tell. At the time President Clinton stated it was a method to protect the LGBT community within the military. President Clinton stated it was an effective way for the military to maintain a standard of behavior that prevented knowledge and prevented hate.

Technically, (click here) there was little if anything in what Gov. Mike Pence said about Indiana’s Religious Freedom Restoration Act in his ABC News interview Sunday morning that was factually false. But much of what he said was materially misleading, due to his desperation to stay on message and to obfuscate. To understand this crisis for the Pence administration and Indiana, it’s necessary to separrate the law of the RIFRA from its politics....
Additionally, the Supreme Court has struck down Proposition Eight and DOMA. The California Law was passed during the Bush years for the purpose of politics and turning out voters to the polls. DOMA was passed during the Clinton years for the very same reason. Both these laws were passed with Republican majorities. They are wrong and propagate hate.
Governor Pence who probably voted for DOMA is completely inappropriate in invoking the Clinton administration regarding this hideous Indiana law. The Indiana law enforces hate and provides for nothing the USA Constitution already supplies. This is another Republican tactic to victimize minorities in the USA, of which the LGBT Community is a member, and bring attention to a presidential hopeful.
The Indiana law is discriminatory and has no existing federal law that supports it.
It doesn't get easier than this.
The First Amendment of the US Constitution
Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances.
Shall make no law. End of discussion.
