"In the year 2022 (almost 2023), Rep. Vicky Hartzler (R-MO) went into a full-on emotional meltdown over legislation that would provide some protections for same-sex married couples.

Speaking in opposition to a bill on the House floor Thursday, Hartzler’s voice quivered as she lamented the allegedly dire state of religious liberty in the United States.

The Respect for Marriage Act does not codify same-sex marriage into law, but it does repeal the 1996 Defense of Marriage Act. Parts of that law were struck down by the Supreme Court in Windsor v. U.S. in 2013 when it ruled the law’s definition of marriage as a union between one man and one woman violates the equal protection guarantees under the Fifth Amendment’s Due Process Clause.
