Hakeem Jeffries — and against Republicans' newly elected Speaker of the House Mike Johnson: "Happy wedding anniversary to my wife." Mike Johnson, a far-right ally of Donald Trump, voted against landmark marriage equality legislation that would protect marriages like mine and my wife, Cheryl's. He introduced a federal version of Florida's "don't say gay" bill and once said being queer is "sinful" and "destructive" as an attorney for the anti-LGBTQ+ group Alliance Defense Fund. While we've come a long way toward achieving LGBTQ+ equality, Republicans' decision to elect Mike Johnson proves they are hell-bent on taking us backward. We are still seeing Republicans normalize anti-LGBTQ+ legislation more than two decades after I won a tough battle to adopt my son, Joshua, against a judge who said having two mothers was "not in the best interests of any child." That kind of rhetoric — and legislation that supports it — belongs in the past. But Republicans want to move anti-LGBTQ+ discrimination into 2023. Meanwhile, the vast majority of Americans support marriage equality. It's clear that the Republican Party is too extreme to represent the American people. Mike Johnson's election as speaker is further confirmation of how radical they have become. We can't allow Republicans to win in MN-02, expand their narrow majority and pass extreme anti-LGBTQ+ laws that set us back decades.
