The so-called Respect for Marriage Act (RFMA) would enshrine same-sex "marriage" into federal law, override duly-enacted laws and constitutional amendments in 35 states, require the federal government to recognize polygamous marriages or any other redefinitions of marriage if a state approves them, and open the door to drastic attacks on religious freedom.

In the event that the Supreme Court overturns its 2015 decision that mandated recognition of same-sex "marriage" nationwide, conservative states would still be forced to grant "full faith and credit" to homosexual "marriages" and other civil marriages "between two individuals" recognized by another state if the Respect for Marriage Act becomes law.

Despite the disastrous ramifications of the RFMA for marriage, faith, and the family, the House passed the bill in July with an unexpected 47 Republican votes and the blessing of GOP House leaders.

Since then, four Republican senators have publicly signaled that they will likely vote for the measure when it comes before the Senate: Susan Collins of Maine, Rob Portman of Ohio, Thom Tillis of North Carolina, and Lisa Murkowski of Alaska. Wisconsin Republican Sen. Ron Johnson initially said he saw "no reason to oppose" the RFMA but has since somewhat backpedaled his apparent support amid grassroots conservative backlash.
