In fact, when amendments explicitly denying such discrimination were proposed, they were rejected.
Because that discrimination is what this bill is about, Pence and his corps of supporters notwithstanding.
Fun fact: Georgia was advancing similar legislation, though they had be pretty creative to get it through their state Senate. But when people got a look at what was happening to Indiana, they got an anti-discrimination clause added in the House. And the bill died.

Rep. Roger Bruce (D): “That tells me that the purpose of the bill is to discriminate.”
Sen. McKoon: “It couldn’t be further from the truth, no sir.”
