Theological note: The measure concerns truthfulness and honest reasoning in government. Scripture values truthful speech and just weights, and general equity supports public accountability for the factual basis of binding rules. The bill's core aim is procedural transparency about evidence, not the restraint or advancement of a named moral harm, so its relevance to Christian ethics is prudential and bounded.
