“Dr. Mehmet Oz believes that same sex couples should have the same freedom to get married as straight couples,” Oz’s campaign told The Hill on Tuesday.
The campaign responded to a request for comments on whether Oz would support the “Respect for Marriage Act”, a bill that passed through the house last week seeking to enshrine same-sex marriage.
The “Respect for Marriage Act” was supported unanimously by House Democrats with 47 Republicans crossing party lines to vote with the Left.

Oz’s comments come as Senate Republicans are beginning to publicize they would vote “yes” on the bill if it came to the Senate floor. With 50 Republicans in the Senate, only 10 are needed to vote in favor of same-sex marriage for the bill to pass.
As National File previously reported, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) suggested last week he would bring the bill to the floor, adding he was “really impressed” by the 47 House Republicans who voted in support of the bill.
“I want to bring this bill to the floor, and we’re working to get the necessary Senate Republican support to ensure it would pass,” Schumer added.
With pressure mounting on the GOP Senators, the chairman of the Republican Party of Texas, Matt Rinaldi, called on the GOP to vote against the same-sex marriage bill but also take steps to fix the recent “societal decline” in America.
Speaking exclusively with National File, Rinaldi recalled just how quickly the Republican party’s stance on gay marriage has shifted. “47 Congressional Republicans voted affirmatively to redefine marriage in a way that even Democrats opposed just a decade ago,” the party chairman noted.
Rinaldi went on to say that Republicans who are unwilling to “undo the societal decline that led us to child drag shows, mutilating children, marginalizing men and erasing women, then they have no reason to be in office.”
“The GOP needs to restore America by promoting strong families, a return to education and traditional values. Otherwise, it has no reason to exist,” he added.
While Dr. Oz has vocalized hard-line stances against abortion and gun control, his Trump support is also being questioned after the GOP nominee removed all Trump branding from his website after winning the primary against David McCormick.
I’m shocked, shocked.
Kinda flys in the face of his muslim religion doesn’t it?
HE’S a republican trying to get elected in a very blue state. He’s very pro-Trump.
I’m in Georgia, so can’t vote, but we need to be less critical of the man and help and support him to get elected.
The democrats say whatever it takes to get elected then they p*ss backward on their constituents. So, give the guy some room here.
I’ve listened to him, and I like what he says,
Most important he loves Trump and that’s good enough for me.
Oz imam will not be amused
Surprise surprise!
Never TRUST a MUSLIM.
Maybe he wants ‘them’ to self identify so he can throw ‘them’ off the roof top?
He’s a filthy chameleon.
Exactly. Oz considers that gay marriage is not the hill he wants his campaign to die on.
Trump doesn’t get in if the same states cheat as last time. It’s that simple, and worse.
Only Arizona is trying to fix things, and they don’t even matter.
PA is only Commie Red in Philly, Pittsburgh and some other scattered areas. It’s Conservative GOP Blue most everywhere else. Pandering to the social left is a losing proposition when you have the missing link Fetterdouche supporting every degenerate Stalinazi moonbat position.
I guess the Wizard of Oz is just desperate to lose.
Exactly. If you don’t win the election, you can’t govern. A Sen. Oz who voted for this is far superior to a Sen. Fetterman who models himself as an ogre-like version of the Squad.
And by supporting this abomination, that’s the hill he will die on.
Is this guy electable?
If socially pervert RINOs are the only ones voting. Apparently he thinks Conservatives will blindly support him.
I bet his Democrat opponent opposes same-sex marriage /sarcasm
That’s possible of course. But this is Pennsylvania after all.
Why vote for the fake Dem when you can vote for the real thing. Thanks Hannity.
