If anyone thinks that , Lawrence, or are safe from this court they are sadly mistaken.

in 2015, there were many joyful tears being shed in the Presidencies household.

"No union is more profound than marriage, for it embodies the highest ideals of love, fidelity, devotion, sacrifice, and family. In forming a marital union, two people become something greater than once they were...[The petitioners] ask for equal dignity in the eyes of the law. The Constitution grants them that right." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Obergefe

"An end to Obergefell would mean queer Southerners would have to travel farther to get married and get protections given by the Respect for Marriage Act. Couples who spoke to The 19th also fear that losing Obergefell would embolden the kind of harassment thought to be in the past."

"...couples would have to have the money and time to travel and possibly stay out of state."

@ryanshead That thought occurred to me and to Spousal Unit as well. Imagine a country where a Respect for Marriage Act is necessary because bigots will not relent. Evil runs deep here.

Yes, this was a good day. Let's shore up and in every way possible anyway. I'm old and have learned not to trust them, even on the good days.

1/2 Misty Gedlinske;

"The does NOT replace the ruling or nationally codify same-sex marriage rights.

If Obergefell is overturned, the 35 states with statutory or constitutional same-sex marriage bans would again be legally able to enforce them for any new marriage license applications.

Same-sex couples who wish to marry in those states would have to travel to a state where same-sex marriage is legal to do so.

@madelineostrander What a beautiful thing to do for your friends! I was in , , when was announced. Went to the local courthouse, where the then-mayor Megan Barry showed up to perform for the joyous couples who had arrived to tie knots. Watched a few dozen ceremonies, cried more than a little, then headed downtown for a celebration that featured a choir that sang with such purity. Just a splendid day. Here's to being allies for .

The New Yorker—The Respect for Marriage Act Is Also a Victory for Same-Sex-Marriage Opponents
It favors the rights of religious groups over those of gay couples—and, if Obergefell were to be overruled, it would create two classes of marriage.

should pass the House on Thursday. So from what I understand, should SCOTUS
overturn , a state could choose to ban same - sex marriage BUT would have to recognize any marriage performed in another (obliging) state.
Is this the morsel they are giving us?

Is same sex marriage legal in all 50 states? thehill.com/changing-america/r "The Nat'l Conference of State Legislatures earlier this year estimated, if is overturned, same-sex marriage would likely remain legal in 15 states, plus Washington, D.C., and 5 U.S. territories." Gallup polling shows 70% of Americans support marriage equality.

My spouse and I have had serious discussions about where in the world we might move as refugees if the Supreme Court overturns . Im sincerely relieved we can stop having these awful talks. Has anyone else has these discussions?

I know this not just from the numerous papers and articles written on the subject, but because I personally have dealt with this. Sure, my marriage to my partner is legal because we're and was decided, but we had to divorce because we're both .

The Respect for Marriage Act was approved 61-36, with unanimous support from Democrats and 12 GOP votes. The measure now returns to the House for a final vote. nbcnews.com/politics/congress/
