Morris: “99% of Girl Scouts AreExcellent”
An Indiana House Lawmaker who accused the Girl Scouts of promoting homosexuality and abortion says he doesn’t have a problem with 99% of the Girl Scout organizations.
Bob Morris (R-Ft. Wayne) sent a letter to his fellow House freshmen saying he could not sign on to a resolution honoring the 100 years of the Girl Scouts history.
A copy of the letter is available here.
I spoke with Morris Monday briefly afternoon, he says he wasn’t trying to offend anyone with his comments, just put out his opinion. He says his opinion is based on research he has done on the organization.
He says the letter was originally meant for his colleagues trying to educate them on the organization.
He also says he and his wife have taken their daughters out of Girl Scouts and will join another organization.
When asked about the Morris letter, House Speaker Brian Bosma dismissed the matter altogether.
Lawmakers are scheduled to adjourn on May 9.
