UPDATED: Democrats’ same-sex ‘marriage’ bill advances again in the Senate
WASHINGTON, D.C. (LifeSiteNews) – Democrats’ bill to codify same-sex “marriage” passed another key procedural vote in the Senate on Monday, supported by a handful Republicans who continue to side against the party’s base.
he Senate voted 61-35 to end debate on an amendment to the “Respect for Marriage Act” (RFMA) ostensibly meant to address religious freedom concerns, the Hill reported. But the amendment, drafted by a coalition of Democrat and liberal Republican senators, has faced widespread, scathing criticism from conservatives for failing to include meaningful protections for individuals and organizations opposed to same-sex “marriage.”
