Contributing sentiments towards policy:

58% : President Joe Biden is expected to promptly sign the measure, which requires all states to recognize same-sex marriages, a relief for hundreds of thousands of couples who have married since the Supreme Court's 2015 decision that legalized those marriages nationwide.
58% : She tweeted thanks to the same-sex and interracial couples who she said made the moment possible.
57% : "Protect religious liberty, protect people of faith and protect Americans who believe in the true meaning of marriage."
54% : The House gave final approval Thursday to legislation protecting same-sex marriages, a monumental step in a decadeslong battle for nationwide recognition of such unions that reflects a stunning turnaround in societal attitudes.
52% : Rep. David Cicilline, D-R.I., said that the idea of marriage equality used to be a "far fetched idea, Now it's the law of the land and supported by the vast majority of Americans."
49% : The Mormon church said it would support rights for same-sex couples as long as they didn't infringe upon religious groups' right to believe as they choose.
45% : The legislation would not require states to allow same-sex couples to marry, as the Supreme Court's 2015 Obergefell v. Hodges decision now does.
44% : SAME SEX MARRIAGEPope: No same sex marriage, but uphold other rightsGay marriages rise 5 years after Supreme Court rulingThousands march in Northern Ireland for same sex marriageBill protects clerks who refuse to issue same sex marriage licensesADVERTISEMENT
44% : Just a decade ago, many Republicans openly campaigned on blocking same-sex marriages; today more than two-thirds of the public support them.
42% : That ruling included a concurring opinion from Justice Clarence Thomas that suggested same-sex marriage should also be reconsidered.
38% : While the bill received GOP votes, most Republicans opposed the legislation and some conservative advocacy groups lobbied aggressively against it, arguing that it doesn't do enough to protect those who want to refuse services for same-sex couples.
