Out former Republican Rep. George Santos spent his last hours in office attacking LGBTQ+ rights, including marriage equality. Last week he celebrated his second anniversary of marriage to a man named Matt, and he shared pictures with his husband on social media. Later in the day, he told a group of reporters in the Capitol that he opposes his own right to get married. According to an audio recording obtained by Business Insider, Santos said he was an opposer of gay marriage when asked about how he works with the more extreme Republicans in the House. The current Republican party platform denounces marriage equality, saying that marriage and family are based on marriage between one man and one woman. It also attacks the Supreme Court’s 2015 Obergefell v. Hodges decision as “silly” as it has legalized marriage equality in all 50 states. Santos’s personal view, despite being married to a man himself, isn’t different from his party platform. He said he got married because that was the option but doesn’t think it should be called marriage. He stated that he is not against just gay marriage., but opposes marriage by the government in general. #Queer Up Politics
