No, marriage should be defined as between a man and woman

This allows same-sex couples to have legal rights without calling it marriage, which some Republicans believe should be reserved for heterosexual couples.

Neutral

Yes, but allow churches the right to refuse same-sex ceremonies

Some Republicans may agree with this compromise, but it does not fully represent the party's historical stance on the issue.
