"When Rep. Vicky Hartzler (R-MO) went viral earlier this week for her tearful floor speech opposing the Respect for Marriage Act, her nephew Andrew Hartzler went viral with a video of his own, calling out his aunt. He told CNN on Sunday that he struggled growing up, including being “subjected to conversion therapy practices” while in college, because of “homophobic policies” that she had helped put into place.

The Respect for Marriage Act passed the Senate in November, with 12 Republicans joining their Democratic colleagues to vote in favor of the bill. The legislation repeals the remaining parts of 1996’s Defense of Marriage Act, which was partially struck down by several U.S. Supreme Court cases. Supporters of same-sex marriage rights were alarmed by Justice Clarence Thomas’ concurring opinion in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, in which he postulated that cases recognizing a right to contraception and same-sex marriage could be overturned under the same legal theory the court had deployed to overturn the abortion rights from Roe v. Wade."
