Today, Buzzfeed News reported that Senator Kelly Loeffler donated $3,800 to “an adoption agency that has a strong anti-LGBTQ ethos and bans same-sex couples from using it.” Covenant Care Adoptions “requires that all adoptive parents be ‘husband and wife’” and calls same sex relationships “a form of sexual immorality,” equating it to bestiality.
In October 2020, the Human Rights Campaign released a poll of 400 likely voters in Georgia conducted by Hart Research Associates between September 24-27, 2020. This poll showed support for LGBTQ people’s rights to adopt with 55% approving and 29% opposing, outpacing support for marriage equality in the state. 44% of Georgian’s also said anti-equality views made them less favorable towards a candidate for office with only 7% saying it made them more favorable. Among Georgia Republican voters, only 9% said anti-equality sentiments made them more favorable towards a candidate while 25% said it made them less favorable.
