Don Bacon (NE-02) today voted yes on H.R. 8404 the Respect for Marriage Act, after speaking with faith and community leaders. “As a person of faith, I believe in the traditional definition of marriage. However, I do not believe the government should dictate who can marry each other based on gender, race, or ethnicity. Churches, synagogues, mosques, and other religious establishments have the right to decide within their walls and congregations who they will perform marriages for, but the federal government does not. This has been the law for seven years and many thousands have been married with this as law of the land. Americans should have the right to their private lives. The Supreme Court showed that all viewpoints can be respected.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-08T02:49:02Z |
