WASHINGTON, DC – Family Research Council and American Values released results of a commissioned national survey showing that 82% of Republican and Republican-leaning independents believe marriage “should be defined only as a union between one man and one woman.” 74% strongly agreed with the statement. The same survey found that voters want their elected leaders to promote this view in public policy: 75% of Republican and Republican-leaning independent voters disagree that “politicians should support the redefinition of marriage to include same-sex couples.” 67% strongly agreed with that statement. FRC President Tony Perkins says the vast majority of the GOP base continues to believe that marriage is a non-negotiable plank of the national platform and want to see their elected officials uphold natural marriage as the national standard, a goal to stand for, encourage and promote in law. American Values President Gary Bauer said public policy makers are doing a great disservice to themselves and future generations by continuing to misread the convictions of the American people, who overwhelmingly support the institution of marriage as a unique union of one man and one woman.
