Today, the company operates over 200 stores under four brands: Urban Outfitters, Free People, Anthropologie and Terrain (newly launched gardening store).Hayne's current wife, Margaret Hayne joined Urban Outfitters in August 1982. He and his wife have been criticized for donating about $13,000 to then-Senator Rick Santorum until 2006, when Santorum lost his seat to Bob Casey, Jr.. They also came under fire after Urban Outfitters hastily retracted a shirt advocating support for same-sex marriage in the wake of the passage of California's Prop 8 in 2008.
