A GOP lawmaker has apologized for a social media post about religious freedom aimed at a pro-life activist, after conservatives and a progressive lawmaker criticized him.
Rep. Max Miller of Ohio had asked for Right to Life Ohio director of communications Lizzie Marbach to delete her post on X, formerly known as Twitter, that said, “There’s no hope for any of us outside of having faith in Jesus Christ alone.”
However, Mr. Miller’s initial condemnation of Ms. Marbach’s statement set off conservatives who attacked the Ohio Republican for calling the post “bigoted.” “As a GOP congressman from Ohio, why in the world would you think it a good idea to condemn someone as bigoted for professing their Christian faith and demand that they delete it?” Mr. Walsh said on X.
Christina Pushaw, rapid response director for Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’s Republican presidential campaign, said the U.S. “isn’t a dictatorship.”
