The leader of the Georgia Republican Party decried marriage equality in a newspaper interview as a pathway for heterosexual people to scam their way into getting tax breaks.“I believe a husband and a wife should be a man and a woman, the benefits should be for a man and a woman,” chairwoman Sue Everhart told the Marietta Daily Journal for a story published on Saturday. “There is no way that this is about equality.

Everhart described a scenario where two friends who were “straight as an arrow” could enter into a fake marriage if one of them had a job with a “wonderful health plan.”
