He was looking for help with depression but also told his therapist that he was feeling frustrated after having lost out on a research fellowship. The patient, who was white, felt the reason was affirmative action. They argued that it would be unfair for a clinician of color to have to provide therapy to a “racist” patient.

Andrew Hartzler said Monday he was invited to the White House to watch Biden sign the bill into law. On Monday, Andrew Hartzler, the nephew of GOP Rep. Vicky Hartzler of Missouri, posted a TikTok video of him attending the signing ceremony at the White House on December 13. "So I made a TikTok and it kind of bopped and then I got invited to the White House to watch President Biden sign the bill into law," he added. The TikTok video shows Hartzler walking around the White House during the ceremony, saying "Aunt Vicky, who?" Responding to his aunt's speech in a TikTok video, Hartzler said she was crying "because gay people like me can get married."
Andrew Hartzler spent years in conversion therapy and attended a religious institution. He called out his aunt, Rep. Vicky Hartzler, after she spoke out against the Respect for Marriage Act. During my second year of college, however, my perspective changed when I came across a HuffPost article that revealed my aunt hosted a conversion therapy group at the US Capitol in 2019. Attending a religious university and experiencing conversion therapy led me to a life of advocating for LGBTQ peopleThe first time I went to conversion therapy, I was 14 going on 15. Conversion therapy makes you feel like you're using 50% of your mind to hide a fundamental part of who you are, and you're told to hate that part of yourself.
A GOP congresswoman wept as she spoke out against the bipartisan Respect for Marriage Act on Thursday. Her nephew, who is gay, responded to the viral moment in a TikTok video. On Thursday, the GOP congresswoman referred to the bill as "misguided" and "dangerous" and claimed it would be used to "drive people of faith out of the public square and silence anyone who dissents." The Respect for Marriage Act requires states to recognize any marriage made in another state and repeals the federal "Defense of Marriage Act" which previously defined marriage as between a man and a woman. "I was met with the same type of, 'I love you, but I don't accept you because you're gay,'" he said.
A GOP congresswoman went viral Thursday for tearfully begging her colleagues to vote against a bill that would protect same-sex marriage nationwide. “Today, my aunt Vicky started crying because gay people like me can get married,” Andrew, 24, said in the video, which was shared Thursday. “I’ll tell you my priorities: Protect religious liberty, protect people of faith and protect Americans who believe in a true meaning of marriage," Hartzler said through tears. In addition to ensuring that the federal government recognizes same-sex marriages that were validly performed, the legislation will also protect interracial marriages. The legislation went on to pass the House by a vote of 258-169, with 39 Republicans supporting the legislation.
