Tennessee among five worst states for LGBTQ equality, report says

A recent report from Out Leadership, which is an organization that advocates for LGBTQ inclusion in business, ranked Tennessee 46th in the nation for LGBTQ equality, partly due to anti-LGBTQ legislation.

The report scored states based on certain categories, including political and religious attitudes, health access and safety, work environment and employment, youth and family support, and legal and nondiscrimination protections. Out Leadership cited anti-LGBTQ legislation as the main reason why 22 states’ equality scores declined this year compared to last year.

I tink they meant to say 'ranked Tennessee 46th in the nation for LGBTQ superiority' instead of equality.
