Michigan GOP Lawmaker Calls for Gay Marriage Ban
Following the Michigan GOP’s recent election victory, State Representative Josh Schriver publicly advocated for the reversal of same-sex marriage legality, citing religious beliefs and a perceived overreach by the Supreme Court. This statement drew immediate and sharp criticism from Michigan Democrats, including Attorney General Dana Nessel, who highlighted the detrimental impact such a policy would have on countless same-sex couples. Schriver’s position, while currently unenforceable, foreshadows potential legislative challenges to LGBTQ+ rights under the new House majority. His comments reference both biblical interpretations and past political stances on the issue.
