Contributing sentiments towards policy:

44% : What's caught the internet's attention, however, is one Republican who attended his gay son's wedding mere days after rejecting same-sex marriage protection.
41% : Last week, the House advanced a measure to protect same-sex marriage from potentially being reversed by the Supreme Court.
26% : Looking at Thompson's willingness to erode bodily agency by targeting abortion, his vote against protecting same-sex marriage is entirely on brand.
