This says, and as the Committee has recommended,
no person. Our committee meant not to go any further
than the Federal Civil Rights Bill of 1964, nor the
Federal Public Accomodations Law of Maryland.
Now, if you want to freeze in the Constitution
something to go way bsyond there and into an uncharted
sea, then you are asking the people of Maryland to adopt
something that I am afraid they will never agree to.
THE CHAIRMAN: Delegate Kanson.
DELEGATE HANRON: Mr. Chairman, I rise in
support of the amendment.
First of all, I would like to poiht out that at
the minimum, what this amendment does is to prevent
a retreat from the current interpretation of the equal
protection clause of the Federal Constitution as we would
also embody it in our state Constitution.
THE CHAIPAN: Delegate Hanson, may I interrupt
you a moment? There is left in this period remaining only
two minutes. At least one other delegate has been trying
to get the floor.
Will you please confine yourself to one minute?
