A lawmaker in Indianapolis filed legislation for fans to get their money back when Indianapolis Colts players kneel during the national anthem before games.

Republican Rep. Milo Smith told the Indianapolis Star that kneeling is disrespectful to the government. “It didn’t sit right with me,” he said of his feelings when he saw players kneel for the anthem in September.
