Contributing sentiments towards policy:

50% : But this week -- when The New Republic got ahold of the Stewart whose name, email address, and cell phone number were included on that "same-sex marriage request" -- the man told the outlet he did not send the form, and that he was married to a woman at the time it was allegedly sent.
45% : On Friday, the Supreme Court ruled 6-3 to allow a Christian web designer to refuse her services to LGBTQ+ people, a historic decision that walks back hard-fought human rights battles and paves the way for businesses to legally discriminate based on a person's sexual orientation or gender identity.
43% : Smith has been represented by attorneys for the Christian rights group Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF), which lobbies to expand Christian practices within public schools and in government, and to outlaw abortion.
42% : Still, Smith filed suit in Colorado in an attempt to block the enforcement of its anti-discrimination law, arguing that when she does begin designing wedding websites, she should not be forced to design them for LGBTQ+ clients, because creating messaging that she disapproves of would oppose her religious beliefs and potentially violate her right to free speech.
39% : Because she had not yet been confronted with a gay couple requesting her services -- or broken the anti-discrimination law -- the state sought to dismiss her case.
35% : Smith's lawsuit was built largely around a hypothetical scenario, in that she had not actually designed any wedding websites or tried to turn away same-sex couples when she sued.
