Raleigh, N.C. – With gay marriage legal in Michigan now voters want to take the next step and ban discrimination against LGBT people in employment and housing. 68% support a law making it illegal to fire or deny housing in Michigan because someone is gay, lesbian, or transgender to only 25% who are opposed. 56% of voters say they would 'strongly' support such legislation. There's a bipartisan consensus on the issue with 76% of Democrats, 66% of independents, and 60% of Republican in support.

Voters are also quite opposed to two anti-gay GOP legislative efforts going on right now. Only 34% think adoption agencies that receive money from the state should be allowed to deny services to families they say violate their religious beliefs, with 52% saying they should not be allowed to do that. Independents are particularly opposed to that legislation at 29/55.

There's even less support for the proposal to make it so that only clergy can perform weddings in the state, making it harder for same sex couples to get married. Only 16% of voters support that to 69% who are opposed and the opposition on that is bipartisan with independents (13/73), Democrats (15/71), and Republicans (22/63) all firmly against it.

“Michigan voters are pretty clear- across party lines- that they think discrimination against LGBT people should be illegal,” said Dean Debnam, President of Public Policy Polling. “Even Republicans, while they may still be against gay marriage, don’t think anyone should lose a job or a house for being gay.”

Voters aren't thrilled with the leadership they're getting in state government. Rick Snyder has a negative approval rating with 40% of voters giving him good marks to 47% who disapprove. That's consistent with where we've generally found him. The reason he got reelected anyway despite not being that popular is there are a lot of Republicans who don't like Snyder that much but still voted for him given a Democratic alternative.

Snyder's down right popular compared to the state legislature- it has only a 20% approval rating with 54% of voters disapproving of it. Dislike of the legislature brings people together across party lines with Republicans (33/39), independents (16/59), and Democrats (15/60) all disapproving of it. Overall 42% of voters think the state is headed in the right direction with 44% thinking it's off on the wrong track.

Public Policy Polling surveyed 1,072 registered voters from June 25th-28th. The margin of error is +/-3.0% for the overall sample. 80% of participants responded via the phone, while 20% of respondents who did not have landlines conducted the survey over the internet.
