Today, the US Supreme Court will hear oral arguments on Obergefell v. Hodges, one of several same-sex marriage cases brought to the Court.
Obergefell v. Hodges requires the Court to answer: "1) Does the Fourteenth Amendment require a state to license a marriage between two people of the same sex? 2) Does the Fourteenth Amendment require a state to recognize a marriage between two people of the same sex when their marriage was lawfully licensed and performed out-of-state?"
The Washington Post has information on the lawyers who will be making the arguments.
SCOTUSblog will be liveblogging the oral arguments.
I don't have a lot to say right now, except to reiterate my unreserved support for the legalization of same-sex marriage.
I desperately hope that SCOTUS gets this right.
