Legislation codifying federal recognition of same-sex and interracial marriage could be on track to garner more Republican support than it got in a broad bipartisan vote over the summer, Axios has learned.
In the process of cobbling together the GOP support needed to break a filibuster, a bipartisan group of senators changed the bill to clarify it doesn't infringe on religious liberty.The big picture:
Americans' attitudes on same-sex marriage have relaxed considerably in recent decades – but Republicans have been slower to come around.released last month found that 61% of American adults believe same-sex marriage is good for society. Republicans and Republican-leaning independently still tilt against it: 43% said they view same-sex marriage positively, while 55% say they see it negatively.Some Republicans who voted for the bill said they have been on the receiving end of enormous pressure to change their votes.
"My days since the first cloture vote on the Respect for Marriage Act have involved a painful exercise in accepting admonishment and fairly brutal self-soul searching," Sen. Cynthia Lummis said in aRep. Maria Salazar told Axios she heard from "many activists" upset about her vote based on concerns about individual liberty.
