The U.S. House passed the Respect for Marriage Act, legislation to federally protect same-sex and interracial marriages.

The freedom to marry the person you love is a fundamental right that a vast majority of Americans support. But with the Supreme Court having overturned Roe v. Wade and Clarence Thomas writing that other privacy rights (like marriage equality) may be next, the threat to our fundamental rights is very real.

In order to protect our freedoms, the U.S. Senate must pass the Respect for Marriage Act and codify our right to marriage.

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has stated a vote will take place in September. With GOP senators already grumbling about their intent to further strip our rights, we must take this opportunity to let our senators know: This bill can and must pass.

Sign the petition: Senate must pass Respect for Marriage Act immediately.
