Moments after ABC News broadcast a special report on President Obama's new support for same-sex marriage, a collection of his supporters in the House of Representatives tweeted their backing for the president's announcement. 

The president received support from the top Democrat in the House, as well as at least two openly homosexual representatives, Reps. Jared Polis, D-Colo., and David Cicilline, D-R.I.

After one hour, apparently only one House Republican, Rep. Allen West of Florida, had tweeted a reaction to the president's new position.

Here is a compilation of tweets:
