INDIANAPOLIS, March 30, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Delta Faucet
Company President Jai Shah released
a statement today regarding the enactment of Indiana's Religious Freedom Restoration Act on
March 26.
"Delta Faucet Company is disappointed with the recent enactment
of the Indiana Religious Freedom Restoration Act because the Act
fundamentally conflicts with one of our most important core values
– respect for all individuals," said Shah. "We live this value
every day by embracing diversity and inclusion in our workforce and
with customers around the world."
"Delta Faucet does not support discriminatory legislation, and
we are deeply concerned it will hurt the broader Indiana business community and compromise our
ability to recruit, hire and retain employees as we strive to grow.
We urge Governor Pence and the Legislature to amend or repeal this
divisive legislation to ensure that Indiana continues to be a welcoming place for
all to live, work and play."
