"The House of Representatives on Tuesday passed a bill to codify the right to same-sex and interracial marriage in the wake of the Supreme Court's reversal of Roe v. Wade -- with one justice writing that the right to same-sex marriage should also be reversed.
The final vote was 267-157, with 47 Republicans joining every Democrat in the majority. The chamber erupted in applause as the final tally came in.
Notable among those conservatives was Rep. Liz Cheney of Wyoming -- in a break from her past stance on the issue, which publicly put her at odds with her parents and sister, who is gay. In 2021, Cheney reversed her opinion and said, "I was wrong." (By contrast, House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, of California, voted no on the legislation Tuesday.)
Rep. Jerry Nadler, D-N.Y., kicked off debate on the bill -- The Respect For Marriage Act -- which would prevent state discrimination related to marriage based on "sex, race, ethnicity, or national origin." It would also repeal the Defense of Marriage Act, which was found to be unconstitutional by the Supreme Court."
