Mike Pence, facing criticism from 2020 Democratic hopeful Pete Buttigieg over his record on gay rights, says South Bend mayor 'knows better'

Buttigieg has said that his marriage to his husband has brought him closer to God. Pence has faced scrutiny from LGBT activist groups over his opposition to gay marriage and his support, while governor, for a "religious freedom" bill that opponents said targeted gays and lesbians, and which was opposed by business groups including the Indiana Chamber of Commerce.
