Kenya's proposed anti-gay law could cost the economy up to $7.8 billion annually, a UK charity warns.

A UK charity, Open for Business, reports that Kenya's proposed anti-gay law could cost the country between $2.7 billion and $7.8 billion annually. The draft Family Protection Bill, not yet debated in parliament, proposes up to 50 years in jail for gay relations. The report indicates Kenya and other East African nations are already losing up to $5 billion yearly due to anti-LGBTQ discrimination, with potential increases due to reduced foreign investment, tourism, and higher health care costs.
