With Lummis’ Support, Senate Passes Bipartisan Bill Enshrining Protections for Same-Sex Marriage
WASHINGTON — Lawmakers in the U.S. Senate on Tuesday voted 61-36 to pass legislation enshrining federal protections for same-sex and interracial marriages, a rare bipartisan showing in which Sen. Cynthia Lummis (R-Wyo.) joined 11 other Republicans and all Democrats in support of the bill. Sen. John Barrasso (R-Wyo.), voted against the legislation, citing his longstanding opposition to same-sex unions.
