President Biden signed gay marriage legislation into law Tuesday before a crowd of thousands, a ceremony that reflected growing acceptance of same-sex unions.
Senate Majority Leader Charles E. Schumer, wore the same purple tie to the ceremony that he wore to his daughter’s wedding. His daughter and her wife are expecting their first child in the spring. “Racism, antisemitism, homophobia, transphobia, they’re all connected,” Biden said. “But the antidote to hate is love.”
“It’s not lost on me that our struggle for freedom hasn’t been achieved,” said Kelley Robinson, president of the Human Rights Campaign. “But this is a huge step forward, and we have to celebrate the victories we achieve and use that to fuel the future of the fight.”“Our kids are watching this moment,” she said. “It’s very special to have them here and show them that we’re on the right side of history.
Lawmakers crafted a compromise that was intended to assuage conservative concerns about religious liberty, such as ensuring churches could still refuse to perform gay marriages.
It was a great day, especially led by President Biden - the first elected Federal official to voice support for marriage equality ten years ago 🙏🏽💝
Congratulations Taylor Swift noticed you 💞
TS x1
such BS. The people posting those love is love etc signs are the biggest haters
Decency it’s on the ballot Biden said during election. Drag queen, Hunter’s laptop and fake Catholic ok
I am concerned because it appears it doesn’t protect the marriage it gives states authority to allow it, but does not force them to recognize it or the benefits that come with. But idon’t have all the facts yet, so will keep researching
They're not all connected. If it was racist for Rachel Dolezal to claim to be trans Black, then it's sexist for men to claim to be women. It's gender blackface.
👏👏👏
Taylor nge like u 🙂
congrats taylor liked
This bill has only one intent, legitimizing people who think they can change their gender. Because both same sex and interracial marriage were already protected under existing laws. And you know that very well. So why do you keep lying about it?
Hello Taylor

These isms and phobias are not the same thing and are not strongly connected. The isms are based in blind hatred and the dehumanization of someone based on their skin color or ethnicity. The phobias are not phobias at all, but rather conflict between amorality and morality.
God said that it's an abomination for a man to lay with another man. There are 196 countries in the world Only 33 countries allow same sex marriage 85% of countries don't allow same sex marriage That behavior is not normal or accepted in most countries
I bet it hurt him deep inside to sign that.
