While that might be true, I can't agree with the implication that this is better in any way. Having the onus on the operator forces you to have to send some form of verification out to all such operators you want to visit and they have repeatedly shown they are NOT capable of securely and privately handling that information.
The difference isn't really in the politicians, it's in the base, and how they will react to acts like this. Democrat voters will shame them, endlessly. They may not have alternatives to vote for, but they won't change their opinion to match whatever dweeb they were forced to vote for. Republican voters will always be on board with whatever they're told to be on board with.
I am certain they love it, given what kinds of businesses see a spike when the RNC comes to town.
More accurately, restricting it is a useful policy platform that helps them win elections.
If anything, the GOP is worse on this issue.
Josh Gottheimer is indeed a Democrat.
