Kellyanne Conway invoked a Taylor Swift song in response to the pop phenom's call for supporters to sign a petition in support of legislation to bar discrimination based on sex, sexual orientation and gender identity.
“At the end of this video, there was a petition, and there still is a petition, for the Equality Act, which basically just says we all deserve equal rights under the law. I want to thank everyone who signed that petition because it now has a half a million signatures, which is five times the amount that it would need to warrant a response from the White House.
"The president and the White House support equality. We don’t support pieces of legislation that have poison pills in it that could harm people," Conway said. She did not explain what aspects of the legislation were objectionable. When asked about Swift's remarks, White House deputy press secretary Judd Deere told CNN on Tuesday that the administration"absolutely opposes discrimination of any kind and supports the equal treatment of all; however, the House-passed bill in its current form is filled with poison pills that threaten to undermine parental and conscience rights."
