<div>Roommates, Chick Fil A is putting up a good fight for their faith, and it looks like the people of Texas might have to live with it! State representatives are defending the &#8220;Save Chick-fil-A&#8221; Bill in support of religious freedom for businesses.</div>
<div></div>
<div>According to Fox news, the Texas Senate has revived a bill that would prevent the government from penalizing businesses for &#8220;exercising their religious rights&#8221;.</div>
<div></div>
<div>The controversy stems from a previous report that Chick-fil-A was barred from opening one of their franchises in San Antonio Airport. The city council voted against it after it was revealed that the fast-food chain donated millions to Christian advocacy groups, that have been labeled as discriminatory to the LGBTQ community.</div>
<div></div>
<div>Texas State Rep. Jeff Leach spoke in favor of the bill, saying it protects the religious rights of every citizen in Texas.</div>
<div></div>
<div>&#8220;This is about our freedom of religion, our freedom of worship,&#8221; he said. This is about our First Amendment rights secured by God and secured by the constitution.&#8221;</div>
<div></div>
<div>The bill was initially struck down by Democratic Rep. Julie Johnson, but is now back on the House Senate&#8217;s radar after claims that there has been a breach of religious liberty on Chick-Fil-A.</div>
<div></div>
<div>&#8220;Republicans and Democrats, conservatives and liberals are outraged on this religious assault on Chick-fil-A,&#8221; Rep. Leach said. &#8220;People love Chick-fil-A&#8217;s food and I don&#8217;t think you should argue with the organizations Chick-fil-A chooses to support either.&#8221;</div>
<div></div>
<div>The House now has until May 21 to pass the bill before it makes its way to the Texas Governors desk.</div>
