The Senate Will Vote to Codify Same-Sex Marriage Rights

“Democrats will put the bipartisan Respect for Marriage Act up for a vote this week just days after the midterms,” Semafor reports.

“Earlier this month, Semafor reported that Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer intended to pass the Respect for Marriage Act by year’s end and that it was expected to have enough votes. This legislation, which has already passed the House of Representatives with 47 Republicans joining Democrats, would federalize same sex marriage recognition and protection if the Supreme Court reverses itself on same sex marriage rights.”
