I am very happy that he [Pope Fransis] did clarify this [marriage defenition], because the other situations can be partnership, can be relations, but certainly not marriage.

Christoph Schonborn

I support and have always supported passage of a federal constitutional amendment that defines marriage as a union between one man and one woman. As President, I will fight for passage of this amendment. My personal belief is that marriage is between one man and one woman, for life.

Mike Huckabee

Marriage in the biblical sense is very clearly - from the many, many Christians who wrote to me on this subject, in their opinion - can only be between a man and a woman.

Andrea Leadsom

I think it's very important that we protect marriage as an institution between a man and a woman. I proposed a constitutional amendment. The reason I did so was because I was worried that activist judges are actually defining the definition of marriage. And the surest way to protect marriage between a man and woman is to amend the Constitution.

George W. Bush

There was a very strong bipartisan coalition in Congress under President Bill Clinton that passed the Defense of Marriage Act. And you've had a majority of the states in this country that have strongly stated that marriage ought to be remain the union between one man and one woman.

Steve Scalise

I very much feel that marriage is a sacrament and that sacrament should extend... to that legal entity of a union between what traditionally in our Western values has been defined as between a man and a woman.

Bill Frist

We can practice tolerance while still holding true to cultural values that protect the institution of marriage as a union between only a man and a woman.

Ken Calvert

Marriage is one of the most sacred human institutions. I asked our Senators, as many South Dakotans have done, to protect marriage as a union between a man and a woman.

Mike Rounds

I very much feel that marriage is a sacrament and that sacrament should extend and can extend to that legal entity of a union between what traditionally in our Western values has been defined as between a man and a woman.

Bill Frist

The new and most powerful union of all will be a union of one one man, one woman, one worker with special skills, an inquiring mind, and an independent attitude, his creativity intact, his love of life blooming. The union of one will be peopled by one man or one woman who is alive. Such a person is always sought by the intelligent manager.

Gerry Spence

Biblically defined marriage is a man and a woman for life, and so anything different than that is not God's ideal whether it be polygamy, whether it be divorce, whether it be a marriage between a man and a man or a woman and a woman. The ideal would be a man and a woman under a covenant of God's blessing.

Max Lucado

Let me be clear. I support the definition of marriage as a union between a man and a woman.

Ben Nelson

Let me first state that I believe that marriage is a sacred union between one man and one woman.

Judy Biggert

I unequivocally repeat: marriage in accordance with the Polish Constitution is a union between a man and a woman.

Andrzej Duda

I made very clear at the time that the love of same sex couples is every bit as valuable as that of opposite sex couples but nevertheless my view actually is that marriage in the biblical sense is very clearly from the many many Christians who wrote to me on the subject in their opinion can only be between a man and a woman.

Andrea Leadsom

Limiting the designation of marriage to a union 'between a man and a woman' is unconstitutional and must be stricken from the statute.
