Justices reject B&B owner who denied room to gay couple
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court is rejecting an appeal from a Hawaii bed and breakfast that wouldn't rent a room to a lesbian couple.
The justices on Monday are leaving in place Hawaiian state court rulings that found the Aloha Bed & Breakfast in Honolulu violated Hawaii's anti-discrimination law by turning the couple away.
Owner Phyllis Young had argued she should be allowed to turn away gay couples because of her religious beliefs.
