Sarah Davis Becomes First Texas GOP Lawmaker To Support Gay Marriage// Talking Points Memo
“I just don’t agree with the sentiment of the letter,” Davis told the Observer in an interview published Thursday. “I don’t feel the need to pass legislation or vote for legislation that prohibits two adults who love each other to be able to be joined in a civil union or marriage. It does not affect my marriage.”
According to the Observer, that makes Davis a first in Texas history. Davis represents a district in an affluent area of Houston.
Same-sex marriage is not currently legal in Texas. Ahead of a U.S. Supreme Court decision that could result in the invalidation of Texas' gay marriage ban, state lawmakers have attempted to pass legislation that could undermine such a ruling.
