Update number of Republican senators voting for Respect for Marriage Act
The current article states that 11 Republican senators voted for the Respect for Marriage Act.
However, multiple reliable sources report that 12 Republican senators voted for the act (main Wiki article also states that 12 Republican senators voted for the Respect for Marriage Act). I suggest updating this information.
Proposed change: Change "11 Republican senators" to "12 Republican senators" and update the sources that include the correct list of names.
Sources: [Here's which senators voted for, against the Respect for Marriage Act - Washington Post] [Who are 12 U.S. Senate Republicans who voted to protect same-sex marriage? | Reuters]
I have never posted on Wikipedia before, but as a gay man, I was investigating those Republicans who voted in favor of this Act and noticed this discrepancy.
