… signed into law by President Joe Biden. It repeals the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA), requires the U.S. federal government and all U.S. states and territories (though not tribes) to recognize the validity of same-sex and interracial civil marriages in the United States…
It stopped short of requiring any and all states to perform same-sex marriage but it was a definite improvement over existing law. As always I’m sure they held back on a full guarantee of a right to marriage because a handful of “moderate” Democrats refused to support it otherwise. I hope history records Manchin and Sinema as doing measurable harm to our country.
This law had enough Republicans supporting it to bypass anything the rotating villains did. Democrats inserted poison pills in it to get republican support in order to get a good headline.
If they stopped on their own accord, why would they start again because a new law was passed which didn’t restrict them any more than they were previously?
I’m not defending anyone, I’m calling out the bullshit law that’s in place. It’s the law itself that will allow discrimination when SCOTUS strikes down Obergefell. Fucking Democrats did that to us.
This is 100% not true, and people have already shown you sources proving it yesterday. I know you hate losing a reason to hate liberals, but you’re just gonna have to accept that you were wrong about this one, kiddo. Either grow up, or leave this to the adults.
Yes, let’s see how bad they screwed us with… codifying gay marriage into our laws??
By making it a states rights issue where individual states can refuse to issue licenses if the clerk doesn’t want to
What are you talking about?

Such as?
Allowing states to deny issuing a license if they didnt want to
You’re claiming it granted them a right they already had, and were already exercising? I don’t think that’s how that works.
In the states that tried to in the beginning stopped shortly afterwards. This law enables them to deny marriages.

Are you implying there is a Republican representative who would vote to codify gay marriage?
The house had them and so did the Senate. But I suppose if you took 2 minutes to look it up you would know this
Brave of you to defend the “right” to discriminate against people for their sex/gender.

Im not losing to reason, Im battling cult of personality bias.
Has there ever been a single person that democrats disagree with they didnt try to infantilize, or is the narcissism too deep?
