Supreme Court Decision Leads to Same-Sex Marriage Wins
On October 6, the U.S. Supreme Court denied review of five cases of same-sex marriage. This decision leaves standing marriage victories in three federal circuits, the 4th, 7th, and 10th and opens the door to the same-sex marriage in many more states.
On October 7th, the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals also ruled in favor of the freedom to marry in Nevada and Idaho.
There’s been a lot of progress and soon, same-sex couples will have the freedom to marry not only in 24 states and the District of Columbia, including today’s new additions of Indiana, Utah, Oklahoma, Wisconsin, and Virginia – but the path to marriage in 6 other states (Colorado, Kansas, North
Carolina, South Carolina, West Virginia, and Wyoming) is now paved. Despite the amazing momentum, the U.S. Supreme Court chose to defer for another day the national resolution that Freedom to Marry, businesses, elected officials, and families across the country have urged now.
