Why Match Group is campaigning for the Respect for Marriage Act
Match Group chief legal officer Jared Sine explains how the company is trying to have productive conversations across the aisle.
Match Group and its subsidiary Tinder launched an advocacy campaign on Tuesday in support of the Respect for Marriage Act, which would require the federal government to recognize the validity of same-sex marriages. The bill was passed in the House earlier this summer, but still has a steep hill to climb in the Senate. In the campaign, Match Group, which also owns Hinge and OkCupid, is highlighting LGBTQIA+ couples who were married after meeting on Tinder and asking users to contact their Senators.
