Republican support for marriage equality plummets to 37%

Republican support for marriage equality has significantly declined, with fewer than 40% of Republicans now endorsing same-sex marriages. This marks a sharp drop from previous years and returns to levels seen around 2015. Despite the Supreme Court affirming marriage equality, advocates warn that the fight for LGBTQ+ rights is ongoing, with some state lawmakers and conservative legal groups actively seeking to challenge established rights.
