Uganda's President Urges Reconsideration of Anti-LGBTQ Bill.

Uganda's President Museveni has asked legislators to clarify that it is not criminal to identify as gay in the proposed anti-homosexuality law, which has drawn international condemnation. The law criminalizes a broad range of homosexual activity, including promoting or abetting the lifestyle, and imposes stiff penalties, including death for so-called aggravated homosexuality. Museveni also asked legislators to remove provisions that impose a duty on citizens to report acts of homosexuality. The bill has been referred back to parliament's legal affairs committee for further debate and passage.
