Earnest: ‘Important for Everybody’ To Fight Indiana Law that ‘Legitimizes Discrimination’

STEPHANOPOULOS: "So does President Obama support the boycott of the Final Four, and what does he say to businesses who are thinking now of leaving Indiana?"
EARNEST: "Ultimately, these businesses are going to have to make decisions based on what they think is in the best interests of their business. Ultimately, look, George, it was just a couple of weeks ago that the president gave a speech standing at the foot of the bridge in Selma, Ala. And the president talked about a couple of things. First, how average Americans all across the country do have the power to change their government, to make their government more fair, but he also talked about the fact that government leaders in this country have a responsibility to support our citizens who are fighting for greater equality and justice and fairness. And when you have a law like this one in Indiana, that seems to legitimize discrimination, it’s important for everybody to stand up and speak out."
