Respect for Marriage Act

• It has been proposed that this page, :Respect for Marriage Act, be titled, "Respect for Marriage Act".
  

The Respect for Marriage Act is an ironically-named, anti-family and unconstitutional act that would allow the United States Congress to further undermine traditional marriage (which had already been affected by the illegal Obergefell v. Hodges ruling of 2015 by the then-liberal dominated United States Supreme Court) by codifying same-sex "marriage" as "settled law" federally. The Democrat-majority House of Representatives voted for this act on July 19, 2022. All of the Democrats voted Yes for this act along with 47 Republicans. Surprisingly, Scott Perry and Kat Cammack voted for this act.

Despite its name, the Respect for Marriage Act shows no respect for traditional marriage whatsoever by attempting to further give homosexuals special "rights" in attempting to make same-sex "marriage" "legal", even though there is no "right" to same-sex "marriage" to be found anywhere in the Constitution, a fact conveniently ignored by liberals who support the Act and the Obergefell decision.
